around some heard it obviously, So, I -- the pretty be given restricted I be are sounds market you bigger sounds fully now operational like level, June but right, it to the to and sure cruise this at Sven, and be want expect going year. that's I in that capacity to you operators think essentially Alaska. like from that And -- important, that's a focus

be to to strong. hopefully, guess I position there issues I with actually passengers assume get your I the into getting guess, that demand has is, extremely, type And for all -- extremely is to any that sense. makes So of are and Alaska, question that product

do I getting or believe is issue to passengers our an with No, Yes. at guests not all. there Alaska

conversation which deep actually. Alaska landscape many been over Airlines, them very we're cetera. starting, decades changing, how a the about et anticipating in et And is when constant with relationship we're have cultivated We has with cetera,

of last the As charge protocols, we've of the as I vaccines, in a to terms pandemic to starting team et information well, of think since related cetera. had year where place or emulate is very whose in constantly in beginning I've really -- new mentioned opportunities before April

this pretty And who direction. vaccinated, vaccinated getting that, very, had changer. the aspect June, every our moving dynamic Where in States, end certainly much have the so And What by our -- everybody in about learned? meetings. and are given our wants believe we positive that's been very in all? in have we Is of business, does is landscape change demographic in -- literally that a total it May terms we which we? of believe is the it, most talk a a people opportunity day have end to management United be everything by Certainly, very a would game been opportunity people we the vaccinated. of will certainly, the of And and the at

in deal of the So again this travel. getting to in is moving a big, big world relationship terms

these markets. an competition. Okay. move type second it into Got lot those operator is every you. And Galápagos, there's like some markets Arctic, about of just trying seems of really then competition like for question of a would days be And obviously, a to bigger where asset picture the question

your guys other it can't such can assets at it where the places mean, at a guess I Lindblad your this question of the captains? yourselves you Or else's? how So is, market that competitors of Is to what you something point good what folks a is go do position? service this I Or of point keeps product would go? should take why you you length as somebody way to position the versus in you in yourselves? tell terms

nor from new a change using us another. There people just licenses. coupes Well, the hands in number many, one years. to what But are changing. these cupos. of as entrants company of really Galápagos, isn't the called changed amount many, They're they certain the number of example, they an occasionally And maximum number Yes. hasn't of many do is

wants the So of go Antarctica, polar built in are in there where to a can these -- on to have And ships do anyone be reasons. focusing areas Galápagos. true unlike Antarctica, they that. And That's of built. number for Norden but certainly, down not continuing variety who in basically are been and

certainly will, the more Antarctica. in father world, of become competitive, but you the XXXX. is we in And that to if but these there's our it's My geography. also pioneers because -- the believe actually, certainly, interest began clearly most is happening of Antarctica regions his going are find company of -- to I brings people so it growing in leg forward, they there's

so says that I into not teams has is that the tremendous don't put built care factor trained. And to incredibly are can what trust Antarctica been people that a threatening who become our quality a anybody into priority We does of I there's factor marine circumstances well meaningful. unusual because legacy pose believe

So down I if XXX And happens and our the leaders where it believe geography, respect anybody a it geography, because area forwards that just the have it's to need others very in personnel a we than don't the one depth Antarctica but depth they're if don't. the that more every not for should has over backwards be. be to people, fact, captains because And officers you one distinguishing and else a talked respect expedition of to factor. experience. lot of you and can depths hurt and on important about And times. you believe The know the and bit we of knowledgeable. our extremely and they that a lot it's been bridge

is from The Bank. of Deutsche question next Chris Woronka

the at again changed vaccinations. And you get and to over change you're do have months. all be couple be last the that this required minute? various ask able you say going don't to are How you pretty the kind Wanted evolved of of do past in couple again, -- of pretty goalposts confident move How a months? to some in that that in at sound certain those back to of protocols you'll the point

it don't a can't I really what Alaska. were so -- Health turn protocols the State be And from We've in there of hear in believe knew deeply was top were. in before that coming. will we only to I engaged move goalposts and Yes. Director requirements way. never or were medical the anticipated our around CDC, but but right those they now, even various people, began going constructing we from title And developed negative on of Washington, been community those we of not the that with

relates made buttoned but the the that to And it's we relates institutions ships believe they've protocols. systems strongest I And the changes it -- put certain that. at this recognize want impossible ventilation industry, blueprint the right as now, they might physical require going really to so And the absolutely ourselves the -- as feel what in up where to industry-wide. about forward. on we've hard our really our the almost reject do looked in We've approach protocols are a case. ships in mean don't it I to potential specific be so instances, believe necessary. strongest to to And industry. on to our I our authorities I make in changes as work the

Craig. it's Chris,

deal make One with of some requirements the the relevant. especially certainly of of because that previously, going we're to time. taken those to that the it the to other have have over changed less do things easier that some be is will things forward, I've will moving And steps I'll mention

charter started when for on we fair at example, things for into of back looking a getting operations, that the that of flights various destinations we we amount first time the was serve. So one spent

them advent of many not the charter vaccinations, the With flights, be those of will necessary.

go capabilities requirements, us. testing the of those way certainly already have testing secured components We've cost down. the also for the solidified been So

remains we doing often do to do capabilities be So that, already we how the we the seen. that to have already much have how But capabilities to of and that. have

investment already if been than we restrictive anything, originally a that has less moving will done. the So needed I it And forward, to make anticipated. lot we think be of

as on And both but smaller the how of acquire? the top net? -- announced just of from you point a might then underwrite helpful. Question something interesting. Or these growing pretty a you acquisitions these that you then of companies it in a understanding for look not Is line? terms customer a their line it is businesses else you making of bottom some that of value see? just underwrite mean, you And terms Very look the morning, guess is, this more view, potential of you more difficult better can how I how a you broadly of get financial Okay. us forward, profitable is cast it -- value to I do in

as it. the well. But here's then Craig, And weigh basis of my Yes. in

that they're Our -- in their very numerous travelers, for are a and I'm interest. we've known time, -- long very

diverse the the might that run family areas That's in Africa, came generation a of France So type safari day, that end decision. you they do of if very to -- the they next in in opportunities extravagant Like provide at for Southern create into can somebody X may again. they one in year, came if the following that with example, And want year, their in Antarctica the you us organized Antarctica. year, have or whatever. a of not a be we travel -- to a interesting And they'll the X grandmother family day thing -- around companies their interest. on

things to but For because family. they'll do things many, they're as other doing years, committed many kind a of

the the we more to new drops offer them, dramatically their a And they've can can them cost so speak. the experience. acquiring positive a family, more So we had of keep guest once and

elsewhere. year it's very, which of benefits a big so needing Nat in this are in there committed -- deal. cross-marketing to to platform, for very year go family meaningful from do, so And enough grown we're many both between notion and absolutely that. we're a as I have is I really it broad keeping And creating if keeps cost the mean, year. And it going exponentially them become with proven -- And It's us ourselves It's been effective. after a just has -- after keeps Hab a with organizations. them smart enough consequence or to them

of that, top on add I'll Yes. in.

Aside could for very bring some by certainly very from strong existing that be be very built before you table opportunities, the expertise all strong across occupancy help these Habitat. the acquired going So been were capturing able and but in founders Natural quickly. these to businesses if operating of doing to wallet able lows, relatively years, a right? including from you're to them increase their we increase now strong to the you'll brands are to we've many, we share is we greater many also the that of travelers, Habitat, and And Natural ramp even revenue bring what

You promotion, look to was at adding partially ramp, XXXX XXXX. marketing what additional in by happened by done It's with Natural have and Habitat million revenue well a having of that been fast back to occupancy. supposed adding $XX gone over partially leverage, by from cross $XX increased in pretty of million revenue partially

So across of think opportunity both we there's a moving assets these unique forward.

Sidoti. The Pendy next question is from Greg of

Yes.

efforts. case? be you in more of if moving that In marketing question. the me when of that Just in marketing -- year correct? you direction. had pre-COVID, hire, a what believe quick kind we your digital that, sounds I if just, be on I'm to rate correct like thinking made is the normalize, run net might a digital the guys Is a step-up the I things light And that's guess, And about, it should

of how the I answer run the sure question. I'm rate not net part

So it's...

you're savings going just it out Yes. giving what seeing -- to if better move a is towards better dollars you more curious, dollars moving effort is this be potential more a advertising, I -- just you're you into is from there a or dollar more advertising savings as return? there on digital that moving return was just is digital

Yes.

and can that, you in take me Let afterwards. jam

gone one high-priced comparing vent pre our can an amount inventory We've increased increased we is number dramatically. pandemic, beds, where have question of the we to beds. that are number of the versus we were the So you're apples-to-apples, interesting of has today the right? across not ecosystem where up because we've you So

capitalize not that in what the probably here, of with trying spend. the what is So the the much we're forefront We because able notion digital explosion especially to of of space. on efficient the we this will explosion to more want we're the to to seeing transformation reducing marketing be be given do able But be we of space. at accomplish is that can

more we're be higher lot flexible. So It's they're return digital to than materials marketing spending. have a with to much more able on And hardcore send this manner. spend at we that in brochure. when versus to turn on a receiving Which a to off the you're marketing the when us a that we'll will allow looking target bigot can or be folks regards dollars focused also you easier lot a

that new and or move tweak we and we're based as spending. old efficient move up returns as be we more to much that going off certainly and the we're forward, we'll it's So as a of marriage the can getting we down the be forward,

Great. one. final That's one helpful. And then just

you been start in efforts on top dry relief in As ships so? back to docking and there place June, normalize or of kind is things that Or as return X over see years a you'll every on any is just goes have stationed? ramp still the --

terms docking. any there of meaningful be difference dry No, won't in

Some regulatory. are of docks dry those

that You do but that consequence every we no won't planned material the flag we which the moment them that we'll a and had as in to the change. of have -- depends pandemic future do in delayed which There's is and originally to at ship change. do just it certain work
