Carnival has specified that the increase in revenues in terms of GCP has been partly driven by the exceptional level of sales on board ships and from other sources of revenue.
"Carnival Cruise Line - explained the president and CEO of the US group, Arnold Donald - ha resumed activities in July offering cruises in the Caribbean and in Alaska somewhat comparable to those of previous years and reached 20% more revenue per cruise day per passenger compared to the record levels of 2019, and despite the credits related to cancelled cruises. Even with a window of unusually short bookings and capacity limits - Donald pointed out - the company has achieved an occupation of about 70%, which denotes the relevant underlying demand of our main brand».
Dwelling on the current level of demand, Donald has specified that 'the level of bookings for the second mid-2022 reached a new all-time high, including the third quarter that - he recalled - is for us traditionally peak and for which it is expected that all our ships will be operational, and this despite the reduction marketing expenses'. Donald also announced that Carnival has also opened bookings for cruises already scheduled for 2023 by registering "an initial application unprecedented'.
