Carnival announcement scheduled for Nov.17th

[kybluecruiser]

I think what happened is that members of the media were invited to a telephone conference with Arnold Donald. He was going to be making remarks on the "announcement" that was supposed to come out that morning.

 

So at least one media outlet announced the plans for the conference and announcement - without having any facts other than these things were going to take place Monday.

 

Of course everyone starts speculating ...

But since it was the CEO of Carnival Corp., it appeared it was going to be an announcement of a more general nature, and that is precisely what it was.

 

It is big news, because the company is putting a lot of money into marketing its nine brands across all platforms.

 

Agree..... There was no "hype" about this except from us here on cruise critic.

 

I think if it is sucessful it will not only help carnival brands but the industry.

CEO Arnold Donald said they are working on it.

 

That would be interesting

I'm underwhelmed.

That certainly was visually interesting at the closing bell for the week. A first ever to see that position.
