Excluding items, adjusted loss for the quarter was $0.30 per share, compared to $1.82 per share in the prior-year quarter.
Total revenue for the quarter soared to $1.82 billion from $521.94 million in the same quarter last year due to the phased ramp up of cruise voyages.

Looking ahead, the company expects adjusted earnings of about $0.25 per share for the second quarter, reflecting first quarter outperformance partially offset by higher anticipated fuel costs and foreign exchange for the remainder of 2023.
The company also now projects adjusted earnings of about $0.75 per share for the full-year 2023, up from the prior forecast of $0.70 per share.
The Street is looking for earnings of $0.28 per share for the second quarter and earnings of $0.75 per share for the year.
