The Florida-Caribbean Cruise Association (FCCA) has announced that Adam Goldstein, president and COO of Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., will become the executive committee’s new chairman.
Micky Arison, chairman of Carnival Corporation & plc and current FCCA chairman, made the announcement during the Cruise Conference & Trade Show CEO Roundtable, which featured both the current and future chairman.
Arison's total tenure as FCCA chairman lasted over ten years, setting a high bar for all who follow. His accomplishments, among others, include assisting the partnership between the FCCA and CLIA to globalize and rebrand the FCCA's quarterly magazine, Travel & Cruise.
Goldstein aims to continue the proactive and interactive approach to further develop relationships with destinations. By participating at FCCA meetings and events, he will keep a constant dialogue between the cruise lines and destination stakeholders to achieve mutual benefits.
In addition to sitting on the FCCA executive committee for more than a decade and regularly attending FCCA events, Goldstein's role as CLIA chairman also gives him valuable experience to further chart a successful route for the FCCA and its partners.
