Carnival owes about 35 BILLION in debt. Royal Caribbean and Norwegian owe about half that much.

If you just started out as a cruise company and had no debt you would only have to earn enough to keep your cruise line running.

The big 3 cruise lines are so much in debt that they have to earn extra money to pay off their debt or face bankruptcy. - Tom

As long as these idiotic companies keep enforcing a mandatory vax requirement, they will all see bankruptcy

Timing would seem to indicate a level of despiration.

It will be interesting to see what they do with the cash.

Not a good idea to invest in companies that have a business model that depends on a functioning, civil culture.

In 2019 we considered buying a good amount of Carnival stock — just for the Onboard Credits. Sure glad we didn’t! The SHTF just a few months later.

Do you think prices will go up to cover these debts?

You cannot shut down major sectors of the economy for months/years and not have repercussions.

The effects of ill-advised, extended, political shut downs are going to be felt for years.
