Trimone Posted May 5, 2020 #52 Share Posted May 5, 2020 The company is preparing to provide cash refunds for passengers whose cruises were canceled. While the company is also offering 125% future cruise credits, it said it “approximately half of the guests who have had their voyages cancelled and who have contacted us have requested cash refunds.” Even if guests accept the credit, the company warned that would mean diminished future revenue when the company can resume sailing. Think of all the staff, hope they’ve Paid.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vpearlkc Posted May 5, 2020 #53 Share Posted May 5, 2020 3 minutes ago, tallnthensome said: They need more than $400 million. That will float them a few more months but that doesn’t even take into consideration the amount of money still owed in cash refunds. This fall season with Hurricanes and a full length season of flu/Corona starting in September will stick a knife in them . Well then it looks like L Catterton may end up with a great cruise line. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HANSENDE Posted May 5, 2020 #54 Share Posted May 5, 2020 "Norwegian Cruise Line said there is “substantial doubt” about its ability to continue as a “going concern” as the coronavirus pandemic wreaks havoc on the industry, warning that it may need to seek bankruptcy protection if it cannot line up enough financing in the coming months. The coronavirus outbreak, “including its effect on the ability or desire of people to travel (including on cruises), is expected to continue to impact our results, operations, outlook, plans, goals, growth, reputation, cash flows, liquidity, demand for voyages and share price,” the company said in a securities filing published Tuesday. “These factors have raised substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.” Norwegian said it was in compliance with all of its debt agreements as of March 31, but it couldn’t guarantee that going forward and may need to seek waivers from its lenders. If it cannot amend its credit agreements, the company said it is at risk of default, which would trigger immediate repayment of most of its debt and derivatives contracts. That puts it at risk of bankruptcy. If it’s not able to maintain enough liquidity, “our business and financial condition could be adversely affected and it may be necessary for us to reorganize our company in its entirety, including through bankruptcy proceedings, and our shareholders may lose their investment in our ordinary shares,” the company said.

EscapeFromConnecticut Posted May 5, 2020 #55 Share Posted May 5, 2020 54 minutes ago, Nclcruise1415 said: I'm not about to believe every single article that comes from the media. NCL has been able to put off some loans for up to a year on some of their ships and they're currently working different avenues (like many other lines) to protect and increase capital. As much as you like to read the fear mongering articles you can also find articles that are telling what the lines are doing to protect themselves. The statement came from NCL's own SEC filing. Some CC folks show a kneejerk - and uninformed - contempt for America's news media. You'd think they'd have learned after January, February and March when CC was flooded with posts dismissing "the mainstream drive-by hype about this virus, which is nothing but the flu." 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david_sobe Posted May 5, 2020 #57 Share Posted May 5, 2020 (edited) Wait a minute.... I just booked Alaska for July 🤑 lol Seriously. Of course things are rock bottom but I have faith they will recover. Maybe I am an optimist but I think they are leveling with people. Its always best to always give worst case scenario. Sort of the opposite of what our government does. This way the sky is the limit. If you paint rosy pictures, you will crash and burn. Its also unfair to compare them to Carnival because Carnival got a huge bailout from you know who. Edited May 5, 2020 by david_sobe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm am itching to go on a trip. But the reality is no one is going anywhere for a long time. Just because a cruise line says they are sailing doesn’t mean the ports will allow them to sail are be used for ports of call. This is just wishful thinking from the cruise lines. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dexddd Posted May 5, 2020 #63 Share Posted May 5, 2020 I was going to try and help with financing by booking 11 night GV on Star next summer for $39,000, after all discounts. My investment stands at $150 CN good for 3 years, for my convenience, of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coaster Posted May 5, 2020 #65 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Thought all the money NCL saved by getting rid of free lobster that other lines still provide would of left them in a stronger financial situation. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
