Randy Weisenburger, a fellow Board member and Lead Independent Director, echoed Arison's appreciation. "Arnold came in with a fresh point of view and an infectious, positive attitude, and he was able to build on Carnival Corporation's long-term success," said Weisenburger. "We have such great respect for Arnold as a colleague and a proven leader with a strong track record of success — and the company has seen impressive accomplishments during his time, expanding the cruise market and accelerating our growth trajectory as the largest cruise operator in the world."

Donald's resignation is effective November 30, 2022. Donald has agreed to continue to provide counsel and advice to the company and its Boards through a consulting agreement.
