I explained the link in a post just before yours. A family name and the family are Norwegian. They have a long shipping history as well, which they often use for publicity. I posted a video of Fred jnr's announcement on the Fred boards, which was filmed in the family's original home village. Fred jnr runs the cruise arm of the business, which is a small part of it, and now lives in Tenerife. Fred snr still lives in Scotland I think, and has done for a long time.

Jack McGowan Posted July 23, 2020 #1077 Share Posted July 23, 2020 So two Carnival ships are leaving the fleet (Fantasy & Inspiration) and two are going into cold layup (Imagination & Fascination). How many is that gone now out of the 13 (or is it 19 now?)? Also announced is that Oceana has been sold to Greek ferry operator Sea Jets, she will be named "Queen Of The Oceans" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
