ROYAL Caribbean International (RCI) is this week conducting more “simulated” cruises with volunteer passengers on board, in compliance with the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention requirements to demonstrate onboard health protocols work.
Mariner of the Seas sailed from Port Canaveral on Wed for a two-night voyage, while upcoming trial cruises are also scheduled for Liberty of the Seas and Oasis of the Seas.
Successful test cruises have already been conducted aboard Freedom, Serenade, Odyssey and Allure.
MEANWHILE, an official groundbreaking ceremony for a Royal Caribbean Group-backed terminal at the Port of Galveston will be held on Sat.
The new US$110m facility, scheduled for completion in Nov 2022, will have capacity for Oasis-class vessels.
ADDITIONALLY, the company has announced a US$1 billion capital raising, comprising “senior unsecured notes” maturing in 2026 which will be used to refinance future debt maturities as well as general corporate purposes.
