NCL ... stands to achieve greater success under the Carnival Corp. umbrella, which will provide NCL with economies of scale, greater access to capital, marketing and operating expertise and stronger credibility in the leisure and vacation industry. |
Ned told me that I'd really like the group of people that we have here. I thought initially that it might just be part of his sales pitch. But, it's true, he wasn't lying. That clubhouse is a very close knit group of guys that are fun to be around. |
Negotiations that lie ahead won't be easy, ... But we are all in the same boat, headed for the same harbor. We will charter the voyage, but there is a consensus among the six nations that it's much better to sail together than jumping off the boat. |
