Carnival Corp has pulled the plug on its much vaunted Fathom cruise operation less than one year since its ship first set sail.
At the same time, Spanish cruise operator Pullmantur has closed its French-oriented brand Croisieres de France.
Carnival’s decision to cull Fathom, which offered volunteer and cultural exchange cruises to the Dominican Republic and Cuba, has come as no surprise to industry observers who have been following its development since it was first announced to great fanfare in late 2015.
