Good morning, everyone, and welcome to our Business Update Conference Call.
I'm Arnold Donald, President and CEO of Carnival Corporation & plc. Today, I'm joined telephonically by our Chairman, Micky Arison, as well as David Bernstein, our Chief Financial Officer, and Beth Roberts, Senior Vice President, Investor Relations. Thank you, all, for joining us this morning.
Now, before I begin, please note that some of our remarks on this call will be forward-looking. Therefore, I must refer you to the cautionary statement in today's press release.
Hey, I know I'm certainly not alone when I say I'm glad to put 2020 behind us. Clearly, 2020 was unprecedented. On the other hand, it also proved to be a true testament to the resilience of our Company. I am really proud of how well we've weathered the storm and I'm very grateful to all of those who helped make it happen, particularly our Carnival family, both shipboard and shoreside.
