Overview

• Queen Letizia will travel to Panama this weekend to visit her daughter, Princess Leonor, during the training ship’s scheduled port call.
• Princess Leonor is in her second year of military studies, participating in a five-month global training cruise aboard the Spanish Navy’s 'Juan Sebastián Elcano.'
• The Spanish Royal Household has emphasized that the visit is private, non-official, and similar to visits by other relatives of the midshipmen.
• The 'Juan Sebastián Elcano' has already made stops in Salvador de Bahía, Montevideo, and El Callao and will continue to Cartagena de Indias, Santa Marta, Santo Domingo, and New York before returning to Spain in July.
• The ship will remain docked in Panama from Saturday to Tuesday, providing time for crew members to reunite with family and friends.
