CFO David Bernstein shared the information during a fourth-quarter earnings call on Monday, explaining why issues are looking up.

“The ahead booking trends we have now constantly skilled all through this era despite the extended pause in our operations, despite our minimal promoting efforts, and even despite the abundance of negative global news affirm the underlying demand that may facilitate our staggered resumption,” Donald mentioned. “And, we have now not only seen great assist for our brands from our loyal visitors, but it’s also very encouraging to see demand from new visitors.”

“Upon resuming service, we imagine we’re properly positioned to optimize that pent-up demand for our main brands around the globe,” he added.
