A new Carnival Corp cruise ship will hit the seas later this year. But unless you live in China, there’s a solid chance you won’t be vacationing on this upcoming ship.
In 2015, state-owned China State Shipbuilding Corp (CSSC), the country’s wealth fund China Investment Corp, and the recognizable Carnival Corp set up a contract to create a Hong Kong-based cruise company. A few years later, CSSC’s Cruise Technology Development arm and Carnival announced its joint venture: Adora Cruises. But unlike Carnival’s eponymous cruise line, Adora Cruises — formerly known as CSSC Carnival Cruise Shipping Limited — will only be servicing the Chinese cruise market.
