Royal Caribbean Inks Sustainable Shipbuilding Agreement With Finland

Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd RCL has signed a maritime declaration with the Finnish government, represented by the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment (MEAE) and Meyer Turku Oy.
The declaration calls for preparing a roadmap for producing climate-neutral ships in Finland.
This partnership advances RCL's Destination Net Zero strategy to decarbonize its operations by 2050 and near- and medium-term targets.
On Friday, Dec. 9, the new vacation, Icon of the Seas, reached its next phase of construction ahead of its January 2024 debut. The new ship floated on water for the first time since the assembly began nine months ago at Meyer Turku shipyard in Turku, Finland.
"Our partners in Finland have helped us deliver some of the world's most impressive and sustainable ships of their time, including our newest ship debuting in January 2024, Icon of the Seas," said CEO Jason Liberty.
Price Action: RCL shares are trading higher by 2.98% at $57.42 in premarket on the last check Wednesday.
