Kim - as I can't get CNBC, would you mind either giving me a link or just let me know what they have to say? Thanks in advance. Lee

Lee, I will summarize in seven words - no hurry to get back to cruising.

That pretty much says it, Marc! Lee, it was mostly about how because of Covid-19 the two companies are teaming up to assemble a team of experts to develop best protocols to protect guests, crew and communities they serve. And how they have to build confidence with travel agents and passengers. A lot of comments about the fact that cruising is going to change again. It has already changed over the years. Silly comments like how the midnight buffet used to be the big thing in cruising and you don't see that anymore; didn't used to have ice skating rinks on cruise ships, etc. So they are doing what they did after 9/11 and Lehman Bros collapse; "adapting", not "re-inventing". Oh, and the changes need to be done in a way that "won't undermine the ability to have a good experience." wonder

Kim and Marc - thanks to you both for your comments. I know I only have done a small amount of cruising compared to most, but to think that someone wouldn't "have a good experience" on Regent is hard to imagine.
