Royal Caribbean CEO Fain: ‘We’re Showing How Safe Cruising Is’

Royal Caribbean Group Chairman and CEO Richard Fain’s latest video highlights the work the company has done since the beginning of the pandemic to make guests feel safe while cruising. According to Fain, by NOV 2021, the group’s subsidiaries will have carried over one million cruise passengers since the restart of cruising. “We wanted to show in a tangible way how safe and healthy cruising is. We're doing that today – not by theory, not by prediction, but by actual operations … We've carried over half a million guests and only have 41 cases amongst those 500,000 people,” he said. “We are all seeing, and we'll continue to see, a terrific track record during this period. Bookings for 2022 demonstrate that there is pent-up demand … Our focus is, therefore, on 2022, not the remaining months of 2021. Obviously, we don't like giving up on any period, but we are more determined to do well in 2022 and 2023, even if that means accepting short-term hits this year,” he added.
