Description: Founded in 1972 by Ted Arison, Carnival Corp. originally operated under the name of its flagship brand, Carnival Cruise Lines. Carnival completed its initial public offering in 1987 and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Seven years after its emergence in the stock market, the company's name was changed to Carnival Corporation. The company does business as a single entity with Carnival, PLC; however, each maintains a separate legal identity. Together, the companies make up the largest cruise company, and are counted among the largest vacation companies in the world. Carnival's fleet of 88 ships encompasses highly-recognizable brands, including: Carnival Cruise Lines, Princess Cruises, Costa Cruises, Holland America Line, P and O Cruises, AIDA Cruises, Cunard Line, Ibero Cruises, Ocean Village, P and O Cruises Australia and the Yachts of Seabourn. The company is headquartered in Miami, Fla., and London, England. Its primary markets include North America, Europe, the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, Brazil and Australia. Since it began operations, Carnival has become one of the most profitable companies in the leisure travel industry. More
