Cruise news today. Passengers aboard the Celebrity Constellation experienced a full power outage on August 2nd while sailing off southern Italy. For about two hours, the ship had no air conditioning, flushing toilets, or hot meals. It drifted at low speed before power was restored and the ship resumed course to Messina. Royal Caribbean is tightening enforcement of its drink-package policy. While the cruise line has long required all adults in a stateroom to buy the Deluxe Beverage Package if one does, it used to grant exceptions, especially for pregnant or non-drinking guests. During a business update, Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings says its $200 million in cost savings this year, and $300 million projected by 2026, won’t impact the guest experience. Cruise line stocks for CCL, RCL, NCLH, and VIK.
