A Coast Guard spokesperson said there are no regulations preventing cruise lines from installing MOB detection systems on their vessels.

Adora Cruises' first ship, the Adora Magic City, will sail later this year as China's first locally built large cruise vessel. A new Carnival Corp cruise ship will hit the seas later this year. In 2015, state-owned China State Shipbuilding Corp (CSSC), the country's wealth fund China Investment Corp, and the recognizable Carnival Corp set up a contract to create a Hong Kong-based cruise company. A few years later, CSSC's Cruise Technology Development arm and Carnival announced its joint venture: Adora Cruises. But unlike Carnival's eponymous cruise line, Adora Cruises — formerly known as CSSC Carnival Cruise Shipping Limited — will only be servicing the Chinese cruise market.

Analysts point to receding recession concerns and the prospect of a less aggressive policy stance from the U.S. Federal Reserve as factors fuelling hopes for a broader market rally. The second quarter earnings season has started positively for cyclical sectors, with over a quarter of the global companies announcing their results so far, Refinitiv Eikon data showed. "The upcoming earnings season has the potential to broaden the rally for sure. However, there are plenty of laggards especially in cyclical sectors such as financials and consumer discretionary, which are available at attractive valuations, analysts say. Over the past month, the communication services, mining and financial sectors have all posted about 5% gains, outpacing the tech sector's modest 2% rise.

Cruise lines are seemingly adopting the budget airline model: Charge a base fare and pile on extras. Newer cruise ships have "more opportunities to upsell" with restaurant and entertainment options. In fact, cruise lines have told their investors recently that passengers are embracing these add-on costs — and enhancing their bottom lines. "Cruise lines are creative to try to make you forget you actually bought some things nine months ago," Scholes said. Cruise lines are trying to cut costs at the same timeThe cost of drink packages have been increasing on some cruise lines.

63 cruise ships owned by Carnival Corp. emitted more sulfur oxides than all the cars in Europe in 2022. The cruise industry is investing in alternative energy sources such as LNG fuel and shore power. Though the IMO rule slashes the sulfur emissions of individual ships, it has done nothing to limit the increasing number of cruise ships in recent years. Compared to 2019, cruise ships are also spending more time at European ports and consuming more fuel, per the report. As a result, cruise ships overall emitted 9% more sulfur oxides in 2022 than in 2017, according to Transport & Environment.

The Saudi Public Investment Fund is a government-controlled fund that has $650 billion in assets under management, according to its most recent filing. A state-owned investment fund like the PIF is not unique. Critics of LIV Golf accused the Saudis of backing the new tour as a form of “sportswashing” its reputation. For example it’s not clear exactly how much it invested to start up LIV Golf. CNN has not been able to confirm that report, but what is known is that LIV Golf tournaments have been held on Trump Organization properties.

A recent survey suggests Republicans are more likely to take a cruise right now than Democrats. In a December 2022 survey of 1000 US adults, 35% of Republican respondents said they were "very comfortable" going on a cruise today, a level of enthusiasm shared by only 12% of Democrats. On the flip side, 40% of Democrat respondents said they were "very uncomfortable" going on a cruise ship, nearly double that of Republican respondents. Taking a cruise vacation wasn't always politically polarized — 16% of Democrat respondents said they had gone on a cruise prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, just a few percentage points less than Republican respondents. With this month marking three years since the onset of the pandemic, industry executives claim cruise demand has officially returned to 2019 levels.
Carnival’s Ship Will Come In Eventually

The outlook for Carnival presented Monday was encouraging. Unlike its customers, Carnival Corp. shareholders should focus on the destination, not the journey. Many expected the world’s largest cruise line to be profitable again three years after the arrival of the Covid-19 pandemic with so much of the tourism and leisure sector booming. They will have to wait a little bit longer for this very capital-intensive business to get there. The company lost money in its fiscal first quarter ended Feb. 28 and might still be in the red for the year as a whole as it unloads the financial ballast picked up since the global health emergency.

March 27 (Reuters) - Cruise operator Carnival Corp (CCL.N), (CCL.L) on Monday reported a smaller-than-expected quarterly loss and beat estimates for revenue, helped by resilient demand for leisure travel, higher ticket prices and strong on-board spending. Carnival also benefited from easing of on-board COVID-19 protocols that ensured strong spending in casinos and spas. On-board and other revenue came in at $1.56 billion and accounted for 35% of the total revenue in the first quarter. The company posted an adjusted net loss of 55 cents per share in the quarter, compared with estimates of a loss of 60 cents per share, according to Refinitiv. The company expects an annual loss between 28 cents per share and 44 cents per share, compared with estimates of a loss of 8 cents.
The recent sell off in Carnival Corp. has created an opportunity before the cruise operator reports earnings on Monday, according to Stifel. The cruise line operator's stock was down 13.2% this month, through Thursday's close. Based on Carnival's history of providing super-conservative initial guidance, Wieczynski is forecasting the cruise line's full-year EBITDA forecast will be $4.0 billion-$4.3 billion. CCL 5Y mountain Carnival's five-year performance Carnival's stock has been volatile since the start of the Covid pandemic, which shut down the cruise industry. But long term, he also believes Carnival is a buy, based on the resilience of core consumer demand for the global cruise industry's offerings.
