    John Chu's questions to Carnival Corp (CCL) leadership • Q2 2025

    Question

    John Chu asked about the potential increase in visitor capacity for the private destinations Relax Away (Half Moon Cay) and Isla Tropicale (Mahogany Bay) following their announced expansions.

    Answer

    CEO Josh Weinstein explained that the capacity at Relax Away (Half Moon Cay) could "certainly double and more" from its current 900,000 annual visitors, as the expansion includes a pier to berth two ships, supplementing the existing tender operations. For Isla Tropicale, he noted that while the marine infrastructure for ship capacity won't change, the enhanced on-island experience will allow them to better maximize the existing two-ship capacity.

    Question

    John Chu asked about the potential increase in visitor capacity for the expanded private destinations, Relax Away (formerly Half Moon Cay) and the newly named Isla Tropicale (formerly Mahogany Bay).

    Answer

    CEO Josh Weinstein detailed that the visitor throughput at Relax Away can 'certainly double and more' from its current 900,000 annual visitors, as the expansion includes a pier to berth two ships in addition to existing tendering capabilities. For Isla Tropicale, he clarified that the enhancements are focused on the guest experience, such as a new pool and beach club, rather than increasing the marine capacity, which can already accommodate two ships.
