Carnival Owns Rccl Fact Or Fiction

[pepsicruiser]

Is it true that Carnival owns RCCL and Celebrity. Someone told me this but I had no idea if it was true. If so why not use C & A status on Carnival like on Celebrity.

[HurricaneSally]

Carnival does not own RCCL. Carnival owns Princess. Rccl owns Celebrity.

[Cruising89143]

Carnival owns Costa, Holland America, Princess, P&O, Cunard and a few others but thank goodness no RCI.

[Ericknow32]

They don't and never will.

[Merion_Mom]

Amen.

[Jason's Storm]

Huh? Carnival and Royal Carribean are competing for your $$$

[bobcan]

Everyone has their price including RCI and Carnival has the money.

 

Scary ain't it

Carnival had a hard time getting approval for Princess. I don't see the FTC allowing them to have 100% monopoly of the cruise industry. Ain't gonna happen.

What does the FTC have to do with it if the ships are foreign registered?

[Ericknow32]

But they are owned by an American company.

FTC has to approve the transaction.

I believe folks are overlooking something.

Carnival Corporation owns the following INDEPENDANT/SEPERATE divisions:

 

Carnival Cruise Line

Costa

Holland America

Princess

P&O

Cunard

Sorry, Dave... they may be divisions, but they are certainly not independent. Carnival, the parent corporation, makes all the important decisions. If it is shown (as seems to be the case) that the fire on the Princess ship was caused by a cigarette, you had better believe that...

1. Carnival would be sued

2. Carnival will implement changes to the smoking policy for all ships under their umbrella.

No way. Mickey Arison rules the corporation and believe me he has the last say over all of those lines. Ask the Princess faithful how much their line changed after Mickey and company took over.

Financially wise, Mom's friend, Jimmy Cramer, on his CNBC show tonight, talked briefly with Adam Goldstein. Mr. Goldstein, of course, spoke very positively about RCL. Cramer agreed. Previously, Cramer has favored CCL over RCL. Tonight he recanted and pointed to RCL as a better investment then CCL. GET OUT THERE!

[Nliedel]

RCI has a bucket load of money too. I would not look for it to happen.

[pepsicruiser]

Thanks for the info I feel so much better knowing Carnival does not own and never will own RCCL.

When did you hear that the Princess fire "seems to have been caused by a cigarette" & if they find liquor was used as an accelerant what then?

Never say "never," but I would eat a serving of dog chow if they bought Carnival, and yes, you could all come on a cruise and watch me do it.

Note to self: pack dog chow................
