even more exceptional vacation experiences across our fleets,
strengthening our relationships with our travel partners and
optimizing results to position the company for future growth.”
The dedicated brand executives will oversee sales, marketing,
passenger services and revenue management for each of their
respective brands. They will continue to drive the development of
itineraries and the onboard product to ensure each line delivers on
its brand promise and provides outstanding cruise vacations for
guests. All three will continue to report directly to the Company’s
president and chief executive officer, Frank Del Rio.

strengthen and grow the Oceania brand and further enhance its
position as the leading upper-premium cruise line,” said Del Rio.
