Princess Leonor's New York Visit: Tradition Meets Modernity

Princess Leonor makes a royal visit to New York City. The Princess of Asturias arrived in New York City today, marking the final American leg of her voyage aboard the Spanish Navy training ship Juan Sebastian Elcano. This visit follows a tradition established by her father, King Felipe VI. The video shows the ship's arrival at the port, with Princess Leonor seen in her naval uniform. A news anchor states, "La princesa Leonor...volverá en avión para embarcar en una fragata moderna de la Armada." (Princess Leonor...will return by plane to embark on a modern frigate of the Armada.) This highlights the unique aspect of her training, combining historical tradition with modern naval practices. After this New York stop, Princess Leonor will fly back to Spain to continue her training on a modern frigate. The Juan Sebastian Elcano will continue its journey back to Spain in a few days. This event demonstrates a blend of tradition and modernity in the Spanish royal family's approach to training and public image.
