00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 1: the furnishings, the artwork, the beds, the food, the cocktails.

15
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,599

00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:19,000

Speaker 1: One time we were on board and we actually actually

Speaker 1: went to a crew talent a talent show where they

43

00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,960

00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 1: A lot of people we direct them to NCL dot

58
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: com to take a look at all all the ships

59
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: and all the places you go, and you take us.

60
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 2: Let's talk about Viva.

61
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, from from a from your point of view, I mean,

62
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 1: you're you're running this company full of people and ships

63
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 1: and things and whatever. But when you have a new

64
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 1: ship like Viva hop on and tonight we've got the

65
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: christening and everything, Like, what is this for you personally?

66
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 1: What is this date like for you?

67
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 3: You know, for for any company, when you get a

68
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 3: new ship, it's a special moment because you only do

69
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 3: this once a year, maybe once every two years, so

70
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 3: it is a special inflection point. In everyone's personal history

71
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 3: and the company history because it just shows that constant

72
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 3: evolution that you aspire to have. So for our brand,

73
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 3: we're always aspiring to do better. Our goal is to

74
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 3: always make the new ship a little bit better.

75
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 2: Than the last one.

76
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 3: And when you have that constant desire to have new amenities,

77
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 3: to have new experiences, to give people what they want

78
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 3: because we listen to our guests. So one of the

79
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 3: things that's really exciting for us is the idea that

80
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 3: we're delivering on our promise that we're going to listen

81
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 3: to our guests. We're going to put our guests first.

82
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 3: We're going to incorporate what they think, what they want

83
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 3: when we design the ship. Delivering the ship man, that's

84
00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 3: the easy part. A lot of the work it's done

85
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 3: on the front end, delivering a ship, having a christening,

86
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 3: having a big party. Who doesn't love a big party?

87
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 3: I think you guys like a big party. So for us,

88
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 3: that's what a christening is. A christening is one point

89
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 3: in time, but it really is a culmination of so

90
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 3: much work that goes in from so many different departments

91
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:23,279
Speaker 3: that not only design, build, improve, enhance. It really is

92
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 3: a phenomenal team effort.

93
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 2: We'll see.

94
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,359
Speaker 1: Obviously you're several ships down the road already planning.

95
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 2: I mean, are there ships being built right now? There are?

96
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, we actually have four more Prima ships. We actually

97
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 3: just announced Prima Aqua Norwegian Aqua. She will be coming

98
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 3: out in twenty twenty five. She's going to be a

99
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 3: little bit bigger than Viva and her sister.

100
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 2: Prima.

101
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 3: Going to have a couple of new amenities that I

102
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 3: can't talk about too much, because, man, every time I

103
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 3: come here, you'd make me talk about stuff I'm.

104
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 2: Not gonna start about. And it happens every time. And

105
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,839
Speaker 2: you can't get in trouble. You run this place. What's

106
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 2: your problem? All right? All right, we'll talk about one thing.

107
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 2: Just just drop one break for us.

108
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 3: We're going to talk about the Aqua Coaster.

109
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 2: Man, what's the Aqua Coaster?

110
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,480
Speaker 3: The Aqua Coaster is a roller coaster slash water slide

111
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 3: slash experience, first one ever, first one on a cruise ship.

112
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 3: It's gonna be made. That Isn't that crazy?

113
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 2: All right? That's that's your one thing. Yeah, we want

114
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 2: to write it first. Wants to be first, I guess.

115
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 3: I mean at this point, now, you guys are pretty

116
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 3: much doing anything you want so cares.

117
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 2: That's what we love about this place. But it's kind

118
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 2: to take over.

119
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: Well, look, thank you for your hospitality, but thank you

120
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: as I thank you, I think everyone here.

121
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 2: I do want to mention one more thing.

122
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: Look, you know, David is not the first president of

123
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,040
Speaker 1: n CL, but with each president they do add their

124
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: own spin to what they do in the office. Yours

125
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 1: has been showing a vast appreciation for our military. Yeah,

126
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 1: when Veterans Day rolled around, I mean you were on it.

127
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: We saw some we saw some things that you did

128
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 1: online and why is the military such an important part

129
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 1: of what you want to merge into the culture here

130
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 1: at Norwegian.

131
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,559
Speaker 3: But you know, as an organization, as a public company,

132
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 3: you only get a few opportunities to define who you are.

133
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 2: You know, what culture do you want? Who do you

134
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 2: what do you stand for?

135
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 3: And there are a few of us in NCL former

136
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 3: veterans who we took the opportunity to create the military

137
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 3: Appreciation program that you guys helped us launch during Fleet

138
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 3: Week earlier this year, and it's just a great opportunity

139
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 3: for us to show our appreciation for our active duty

140
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 3: and our veterans. It is an opportunity to highlight that

141
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 3: you are appreciated here at Norwegian Cruise Line. Norwegian Cruise

142
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 3: Line appreciates veterans, appreciates the military, appreciates what.

143
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 2: It stands for. And it's hard to debate that.

144
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 3: You know, who wouldn't, who doesn't, who doesn't want to

145
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 3: support those who protect and serve this wonderful country here.

146
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,000

148
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 3: of us who served at NCL. So we're just very
