1438 ET - As major airlines withdraw guidance this earnings season, cruise lines may give a better look into travel demand under a tougher macro environment, Bank of America Securities analysts say in a research note. The analysts say the longer booking curves of cruise lines give greater visibility, and they expect management teams to remain constructive while acknowledging macro uncertainty. They think Royal Caribbean Group may raise the low end of its net yield outlook for the year while Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings is likely to maintain its net yield outlook. Cruise spend held steady through March, but Norwegian recently launched fare sales for its Oceania brand's sailings through March 2026, the analysts add. (kelly.cloonan@wsj.com)
