- Comment: The company reduced its loss forecast and saw a 3rd quarter profit attributed to higher ticket pricing and robust demand for cruise trips. Cruise liners such as Carnival, Norwegian Cruise Lines, and Royal Caribbean has been able to increase their ticket prices but still stay cheaper than hotels. This has been successful in drawing demand for experience through a cruise for consumers, instead of spending unnecessarily on big-ticket items. However, cruise liners also see some headwinds in the market as a result of higher fuel costs, as supply cuts drive up oil prices. 1Q24 recommended trading range: $10 to $18. Neutral Outlook.
