Shares of Carnival are falling Tuesday in sympathy with competitor Royal Caribbean Group after the company released its Q3 earnings report.
Carnival Cruise Line is adjusting itineraries to avoid the path of Melissa, which intensified into a Category 5 hurricane on Monday. The company’s Brand Ambassador, John Heald, said that ships sailing to Jamaica and nearby destinations are being affected.
There are no itinerary changes yet for Carnival ships due to Tropical Storm Melissa, but guests should stay alert for potential updates.
Over nearly five decades, Carnival amassed a global fleet of cruise ships. But in the face of a pandemic, health authorities and passengers are questioning whether operators like Carnival can set sail safely going forward.
Carnival Cruise Line’s Brand Ambassador John Heald said that the company’s adults-only cruises are “extraordinarily popular” with passengers.
