Good news for travel.

Aviation back in ‘full force’ as world passengers feel confident flying again

If all the ships are full, then ccl will be rolling in cash, and debt repayments will be a relatively minor expense. (Could someone else do bofp calc to see how much a full ship takes in cash, and how much the costs are?).

Covid seems to be a thing of the past - no checks, just a rec to have a test. No one asked for our diy test result, just if we were 'well' or not. Fully jabbed people have nothing more to do, so boarding is easy. The hassle factor is now low.

To book a cruise on board and get the extra on board credit (on our cruise at least), you have to make an appointment with the sales staff. Stupidly, all slots were booked and several we spoke to couldn't buy their next cruise. Wtf they can't get more sales staff, or have them do longer hours, is beyond me. Especially since nowadays, you can't buy future cruise deposits, with cunard, to get the obc.

Just come off Arcadia which was almost full. Everything went well with shore visits full each day so plenty of profit for the company.Also had presentation on Arvia which looked great and numerous passengers booked for next year including us.

Thanks for the feedback on the QM2 @Pierre Oreilly will have to try and fit that in next year !!0n the Celebrity Silhouette later in the week heading over to the Caribbean from Southampton interesting to see how RC are doing Still haven't bought the qualifying shares here but I'll do that when we get backGLA

[smurfy2001] 18/10/2022 16:08

Looking at the RNS l suspect that's 2023 debt repayments that can be taken care of.

I see that as a positive.

Anyone disagree?

[pierre oreilly] 18/10/2022 09:29

Junk, is it my post which is bs? Any particular bit or all of it?

Proof? I smell BS.

It's the last night of our Queen Mary cruise. Everything brilliant. Full, yet the qm2 has plenty of room. Talk today by the qm2 chief designer, what a special ship she is. Play by the new RSC students - incredible. Lots of first the cruisers who'll be back. Shame it's the final night.

Just back from fortnight on Brittania fully booked .Overall good generally -food and staff excellent but some shortage of staff evident.However plenty of drinks/wine flowing,trips all booked no sign of passengers cutting back and queues at loyalty desk to book another cruise.Hopefully positive trends!

Interesting use of the word 'investor' when it comes to this stock. Gambler/Day Trader/Amateur without an f'ing clue all spring to mind but investor ...............

[pierre oreilly] 12/10/2022 15:42

Any investors on the queen Mary this Friday? (I assume no traders will be there!).A short cruise to cheaply get to the top world club level, stuff myself full of salmon, tuna, japanese food, a couple of surf and turfs on the 2 formal evenings, and to buy a few more pairs of substantial German socks in Altona, hopefully learn some better dancing techniques off the world champion dancers they usually have on board (probably on the minimum wage), and relax walking many times round the prom deck. Hopefully no stag parties this time.

Arja, did the charts which told you to short this certainty also explain about margin calls?

[tradejunkie2] 11/10/2022 16:24

arja, you filthy little kitty cat.
