CARNIVAL Corporation & plc has achieved its highest-ever net income, totalling US$1.9 billion for the third quarter 2025 – an improvement of $116 million compared to 2024, surpassing the previous record set in 2019.
The robust results have prompted the company to raise its full-year 2025 adjusted net income guidance, which is up nearly 55% compared to 2024.
Additionally, Carnival Corporation & plc also achieved record revenues of $8.2 billion during the third quarter 2025, up over $250 million on the prior corresponding period on lower capacity, while all-time high net yields were 4.6% up on 2024.
The cruise business also shrunk its fuel consumption by 5.2% compared to the third quarter 2024, thanks to its ongoing efforts to improve the energy efficiency of its operations.
“This was a phenomenal quarter delivering all-time high net income and our tenth consecutive quarter of record revenues,” said Carnival Corporation & plc’s Chief Executive Officer, Josh Weinstein.
“Adjusted return on invested capital reached 13% for the first time in nearly 20 years, a clear testament to the continued improvement in our operational execution – driven not only by consistently strong performance from Carnival Cruise Line and AIDA, but also great advancement across the rest of our portfolio of world-class brands.” JM
