Financial news update shows RCL paid with stock to purchase the remaining 1/3 ownership of Silver Seas Cruises. So now SS 100% owned inside 'Group'.

Charles4515 Posted July 10, 2020 #8 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Interesting timing, just for marketing? https://thepointsguy.com/news/royal-caribbean-cruises-name-change/ Easier to shift ships around and/or consolidate brands. For instance fold Celebrity ships into Royal Caribbean. Or maybe merge another cruise line into the group like NCL.
