US cruiseship giant Royal Caribbean has unveiled new financing deals worth nearly $6bn.
The company said it had fixed funding for its two new 200,000-gt Project Icon vessels due from Meyer Turku in Finland in 2022 and 2024.
The cash is equal to 80% of the contract price, which will not exceed EUR 1.65bn ($1.94m) each.
Most of this is to be guaranteed 100% by Finnvera, Finland's export credit agency, with BNP Paribas Fortis as the agent.
