Royal Caribbean Group (RCL) stock has taken a hit along with its peers in the cruise line sector, but Landon Swan, co-founder of LikeFolio, believes the company's strong fundamentals and affluent customer base will help it weather the storm. Swan notes that while record bookings may be slowing slightly, Royal Caribbean is still outperforming its competitors, with onboard spending up 20% and a younger, more modern fleet. However, with the stock up $50 from its recent lows, Swan thinks it may be due for a short-term pullback, making it a "buy the dip" opportunity for long-term investors.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Join Heneka Watkis-Porter, the #JamaicanPodcastQueen, in this insightful episode of The Entrepreneurial You, as she welcomes Pete Mohr—exit strategist, Kolbe-certified coach, and founder of Simplifying Entrepreneurship. With over 20 years of experience in building, scaling, and selling businesses, Pete helps entrepreneurs reclaim their time, build strong teams, and create systems that allow businesses to thrive independently. With over 400 million small businesses worldwide, and only 20% surviving beyond five years, Pete shares why many entrepreneurs get stuck in the operator role and what it truly takes to transition into true business ownership. Understanding Business Value and Financials Pete explains why clean financials are the key to long-term business success. He sheds light on common exit planning myths, such as overestimating business value and assuming that a business can be sold at any time. He introduces the concept of Seller's Discretionary Earnings (SDE) and emphasizes how understanding your contracts, team, and financials is crucial to becoming “exit ready.” Team Dynamics with the Kolbe Assessment Heneka and Pete discuss the Kolbe Assessment, a tool that helps leaders build more effective teams by understanding conative strengths—how people naturally take action. Pete explains how aligning team roles with Kolbe profiles can reduce micromanagement and boost productivity, especially during times of growth or exit transitions. Pete's 5 P's + Promotion for Business Growth Pete shares his signature 5 P's Framework—Promise, Product, Process, People, Profit—along with a new 6th P: Promotion. This model helps entrepreneurs create transferable systems that lead to long-term scalability and success. Heneka resonates with this approach and shares her vision for empowering business owners to step into a more strategic, visionary role. Planning for Continuity and Unpredictable Risks Pete highlights that 50% of businesses are sold out of necessity—due to death, divorce, disability, or other external factors. He stresses the importance of preparing for business continuity risks and not waiting until it's too late to start strategizing for exit and succession planning. COMMUNITY CONNECTION: In this segment, I invite our community to share your reviews, questions, feedback, ect to engage with us. I'd love to hear from YOU—our amazing listeners—about your thoughts on today's episode or any questions you may have for Pete or myself.

MSC cruise line - MSC World America is a brand new ship that most people in the United States have not heard of. Think of Royal Caribbean but with a twist and often a lower price.

Vacations are supposed to be carefree—a time to disconnect from stress and reconnect with loved ones. But for the Bradley family, a Caribbean cruise aboard Rhapsody of the Seas became the start of a nightmare. Just three days into their trip, 23-year-old Amy Lynn Bradley vanished without a trace. No signs of struggle. No clear answers. How does someone disappear from a ship filled with thousands of people? And why, decades later, are there still whispers that Amy may be alive? This is the story of a young woman who set sail with her family… and never came home.

Timestamps: (5:50) - Tracey Nix Update (10:44) - Amy Lynn Bradley In March 1998, Amy Bradley boarded a Royal Caribbean cruise with her brother, mother and father, looking forward to some fun in the sun. The family enjoyed seeing Aruba and taking advantage of all that the ship had to offer including restaurants, bars and nightclubs. One night on their cruise, Amy and her brother Brad danced until the early morning hours at the nightclub on the ship. They went back to their cabin and Amy was seen asleep by her father just after 5am. When he woke up again at 6am, Amy was gone.   27 years later, Amy remains missing. The investigation into her disappearance has been criticized by her family as Royal Caribbean did not want to alarm other passengers on board.    Over the years, there have been many reported sightings of Amy and it is feared that she has been trafficked and is being forced to work in the sex industry. Was Amy abducted and smuggled off the ship?  Could she still be alive? Or did she fall overboard and drown?

Send us a textHello, passionate cruisers! This is Paul and this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast I am delighted to welcome back a special guest, my cohost Cheryl.We are largely in the bucket list checking stage of our lives, and just got the opportunity to check one off—a cruise on a luxury cruise line, specifically Explora Journeys and its first ship, Explora I. Let me preface with a brief overview oo the main categories of cruise lines:Mainstream-Carnival, Royal Caribbean, NCLPremium-Celebrity, Holland America, Princess, Virgin Voyages, DisneyLuxury-Regent Seven Seas, Seaborne, Crystal, Windstar You can argue with those classifications but that is accepted in the cruising industry. Where you are more likely to get arguments is about these cruise lines on the edge between categories. When we decided on explora journeys it was not on our luxury cruise radar—the luxury lines just mentioned were. This aspiration to cruise in luxury was decidedly low on the list simply due to affordability; we have so many more affordable bucket list items; like going to the Panama Canal this fall. Then Explora Journeys surprisingly dominated the luxury category of the Cruise Critics Awards just a short time before I hosted Colleen Mc Daniel who happens to be the Editor-in-Chief of Cruise Critic. Not only did Colleen pique my interest by sharing her own experience on Explora Journeys but she turned me on to some Explora promotions—still going on—that had me researching as soon as the call ended with Colleen.That research confirmed Colleen's mention of attractive pricing, and it led me to several podcast guests who could talk about Explora Journeys including Kathy Lu, an executive with Explora Journeys, before we boarded in March. Support the showSupport thejoyofcruisingpodcast https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/supporters/newSupport Me https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulthContact Me https://www.thejoyofcruising.net/contact-me.htmlBook Cruises http://www.thejoyofvacation.com/US Orders (coupon code joyofcruisingpodcast)The Joy of Cruising https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingCruising Interrupted https://bit.ly/CruisingInterruptedThe Joy of Cruising Again https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingAgainIntl Orders via Amazon

Two Cruises Episode 56: Show Notes. This episode, we head back to the high seas to talk about not one, but two different cruises! Join us as we discuss our experience on Royal Caribbean's Utopia of the Seas and Princess Cruise Lines' Sun Princess. In this detailed discussion, we talk about everything from flight Irregular Operations (IRROPS) and loyalty rewards to dining, entertainment and more, drawing out differences, common features, and what we liked and didn't like. To kick off our conversation, we talk about flights to Jacksonville and Orlando, and some of the unexpected obstacles along the way. Next, we touch on key aspects of the experience at Utopia of the Seas: facilities, dining, casino, and more, before diving into Thomas's arrival on the Sun Princess. Comparing the demographics on each ship, Thomas shares what he liked about the dining setup and entertainment options, drawing a comparison with other cruise trips. Despite having been sick, Thomas shares a short review of what he was able to partake in, including a specialty European-style dinner. If you're curious about the newest ships on two different cruise lines, this episode is for you! Key Points From This Episode: [00:45] What this episode will explore: two different cruises.
