Together with their consolidated subsidiaries, Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc are referred to collectively in this Form

Our four reportable segments are comprised of (1)North America and Australia cruise operations (“NAA”), (2)Europe and Asia cruise operations (“EA”), (3) Cruise Support and (4) Tour and Other.
The operating segments within each of our NAA and EA reportable segments have been aggregated based on the similarity of their economic and other characteristics. Our Cruise Support segment represents our portfolio of leading port destinations and other services all of which are operated for the benefit of our cruise brands. Our Tour and Other segment represents the hotel and transportation operations of Holland America Princess Alaska Tours and other operations. The composition of our Cruise Support and Tour and Other segments remains unchanged.
