Overview

For more than a decade, LDWW has partnered with Carnival Corporation and its family of nine brands to protect and promote the reputation of cruising as an exciting and memorable vacation option for travelers of all kinds and Carnival’s family of nine brands as the premier option for guests across the globe. In that time, Carnival has called upon LDWW to deliver public relations strategies including crisis and issues management, executive visibility, media relations, event support, and internal communications and to supplement those strategies with dynamic visual, multimedia and social media content.

After the pandemic shut down the entire global cruise industry for 16 months,

Carnival Corporation and LDWW initiated a multiyear integrated corporate communications campaign to support the company’s restart and business recovery, including PR, digital and creative efforts to promote the experience of cruising, boost positive perceptions amongst new and existing cruisers, and ultimately restore consumer confidence, brand trust and corporate reputation.
