the board-level Health, Environmental, Safety and Security Committee.
"We are very pleased to welcome Helen as an exceptional addition to our board of

including decades of work in the maritime and travel sectors, and valuable time
spent in consumer retail. We look forward to working with her closely and
gaining insights from her unique perspective as we continue growing demand for
our 10 global cruise line brands and delighting our guests with great vacations
at an exceptional value."
Since 2006, Deeble has been CEO of P&O Ferries Division Holdings Ltd., a
pan-European shipping and logistics business, following stints as the company's
chief operating officer and chief financial officer starting in 1998. Prior to
that, Deeble was chief financial officer for Stena Line UK Ltd., a Swedish-owned
ferry operator, and held several financial roles with the retailer Sears plc in
the UK. Deeble has served as a non-executive director for the Port of London
