Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
General | Note 1 . General Description of Business We are a global cruise company. We own and operate three global cruise brands: Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity Cruises and Silversea Cruises (collectively, our "Global Brands"). We also own a 50% joint venture interest in TUI Cruises GmbH ("TUIC"), which operates the German brands TUI Cruises and Hapag-Lloyd Cruises (collectively, our "Partner Brands"). We account for our investments in our Partner Brands under the equity method of accounting. Together, our Global Brands and our Partner Brands have a combined fleet of 64 ships as of June 30, 2023. Our ships offer a selection of worldwide itineraries that call on more than 1,000 destinations in over 120 countries on all seven continents. Liquidity As of June 30, 2023, we had liquidity of $3.7 billion, including $3.0 billion of undrawn revolving credit facility capacity, and $0.7 billion in cash and cash equivalents. We believe that we have sufficient liquidity to fund our obligations for at least the next twelve months from the issuance of these financial statements. Refer to Note 6 . Debt for further information regarding refinancing transactions and the applicable financial covenants. We will continue to pursue various opportunities to raise capital to fund obligations associated with future debt maturities and/or to extend the maturity dates associated with our existing indebtedness or facilities. Basis for Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements The unaudited consolidated financial statements are presented pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In our opinion, these statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods reported herein. Adjustments consist only of normal recurring items, except for any items discussed in the notes below. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. Estimates are required for the preparation of financial statements in accordance with these principles. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Refer to Note 2 . Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for a discussion of our significant accounting policies. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. We consolidate entities over which we have control, usually evidenced by a direct ownership interest of greater than 50%, and variable interest entities where we are determined to be the primary beneficiary. Refer to Note 5 . Investments and Other Assets |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2 . Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Adoption of Accounting Pronouncements In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04, Liabilities-Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50) - Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. This ASU requires that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. This ASU is expected to improve financial reporting by requiring new disclosures about the programs, thereby allowing financial statement users to better consider the effect of the programs on an entity’s working capital, liquidity, and cash flows. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, except for the amendment on roll forward information which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. We adopted ASU No. 2022-04 effective January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Reclassifications For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we no longer separately present Accrued interest in our consolidated balance sheets. As a result, amounts presented in prior periods were reclassified to Accrued expenses and other liabilities to conform to the current year presentation. For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023, we no longer separately present Impairments and Credit losses in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). As a result, amounts presented in prior periods were reclassified to Other Operating to conform to the current year presentation. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we no longer separately present Amortization of debt discounts and premiums; (Decrease) increase in accrued interest; and Impairments and Credit losses in our cash flows from Operating Activities within our consolidated statements of cash flows. As a result, amounts presented in prior periods were reclassified to Amortization of debt issuance costs, discounts and premiums; (d ecrease) increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities; and Other, net, respectively, within Operating Activities to conform to the current year presentation. Additionally, we no longer separately present Proceeds from the sale of property and equipment and other assets in our cash flows from Investing Activities within our consolidated statements of cash flows. As a result, amounts presented in prior periods were reclassified to Other, net within Investing Activities |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenues | Note 3 . Revenues Revenue Recognition Revenues are measured based on consideration specified in our contracts with customers and are recognized as the related performance obligations are satisfied. The majority of our revenues are derived from passenger cruise contracts which are reported within Passenger ticket revenues in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Our performance obligation under these contracts is to provide a cruise vacation in exchange for the ticket price. We satisfy this performance obligation and recognize revenue over the duration of each cruise, which generally ranges from two Passenger ticket revenues include charges to our guests for port costs that vary with passenger head counts. These type of port costs, along with port costs that do not vary by passenger head counts, are included in our cruise operating expenses. The amounts of port costs charged to our guests and included within Passenger ticket revenues on a gross basis were $226.1 million and $159.2 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $429.5 million and $236.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our total revenues also include Onboard and other revenues , which consist primarily of revenues from the sale of goods and services onboard our ships that are not included in passenger ticket prices. We receive payment before or concurrently with the transfer of these goods and services to cruise passengers and recognize revenue over the duration of the related cruise. As a practical expedient, we have omitted disclosures on our remaining performance obligations as the duration of our contracts with customers is less than a year. Disaggregated Revenues The following table disaggregates our total revenues by geographic regions where we provide cruise itineraries (in thousands): Quarter Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Revenues by itinerary North America (1) $ 2,136,503 $ 1,344,043 $ 4,329,512 $ 2,233,130 Asia/Pacific 169,394 45,216 502,404 79,849 Europe 840,740 527,134 842,637 528,559 Other regions(2) 227,285 159,390 441,774 239,022 Total revenues by itinerary 3,373,922 2,075,783 6,116,327 3,080,560 Other revenues(3) 149,060 108,459 291,801 162,913 Total revenues $ 3,522,982 $ 2,184,242 $ 6,408,128 $ 3,243,473 (1) Includes the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean. (2) Includes seasonality impacted itineraries primarily in South and Latin American countries. (3) Includes revenues primarily related to cancellation fees, vacation protection insurance, casino operations, pre- and post-cruise tours and fees for operating certain port facilities. Amounts also include revenues related to procurement and management related services we perform on behalf of our unconsolidated affiliates. Refer to Note 5 . Investments and Other Assets for more information on our unconsolidated affiliates. Passenger ticket revenues are attributed to geographic areas based on where the reservation originates. For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, our guests were sourced from the following areas: Quarter Ended June 30, 2023 2022 Passenger ticket revenues: United States 76 % 78 % All other countries (1) 24 % 22 % Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 Passenger ticket revenues: United States 76 % 80 % All other countries (1) 24 % 20 % (1) No other individual country's revenue exceeded 10% for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Customer Deposits and Contract Liabilities Our payment terms generally require an upfront deposit to confirm a reservation, with the balance due prior to the cruise. Deposits received on sales of passenger cruises are initially recorded as Customer deposits in our consolidated balance sheets and subsequently recognized as passenger ticket revenues or onboard revenues during the duration of the cruise. ASC 606, Revenues from Contracts with Customers , defines a “contract liability” as an entity’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the entity has received consideration from the customer. We do not consider customer deposits to be a contract liability until the customer no longer retains the unilateral right, resulting from the passage of time, to cancel such customer's reservation and receive a full refund. Customer deposits presented in our consolidated balance sheets include contract liabilities of $2.8 billion and $1.8 billion as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. During the pandemic we provided flexibility to guests with bookings on sailings cancelled due to COVID-19 by allowing guests to receive future cruise credits (“FCC”). As of June 30, 2023, our customer deposit balance includes approximately $0.4 billion of unredeemed FCCs. Given the lack of comparable historical experience of FCC redemptions, as of June 30, 2023 we are unable to estimate the number of FCCs that may not be used in future periods and get recognized as breakage. We will update our breakage analysis as future information is received. Contract Receivables and Contract Assets Although we generally require full payment from our customers prior to their cruise, we grant credit terms to a relatively small portion of our revenue sourced in select markets outside of the United States. As a result, we have outstanding receivables from passenger cruise contracts in those markets. We also have receivables from credit card merchants for cruise ticket purchases and goods and services sold to guests during cruises that are collected before, during or shortly after the cruise voyage. In addition, we have receivables due from concessionaires onboard our vessels. These receivables are included within Trade and other receivables, net in our consolidated balance sheets. Our credit card processors agreements require us, under certain circumstances, to maintain a reserve that can be satisfied by posting collateral. One of our processors currently holds a portion of our customer deposits in reserve until the sailings take place or the funds are refunded to the customer. The cash reserve held by the processor was immaterial as of June 30, 2023. We have contract assets that are conditional rights to consideration for satisfying the construction services performance obligations under a service concession arrangement. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our contract assets were $165.5 million and $167.9 million, respectively, and were included within Other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. Given the short duration of our cruises and our collection terms, we do not have any other significant contract assets. Assets Recognized from the Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer Prepaid travel advisor commissions and prepaid credit and debit card fees are an incremental cost of obtaining contracts with customers that we recognize as an asset and include within Prepaid expenses and other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. Prepaid travel advisor commissions and prepaid credit and debit card fees were $291.3 million as of June 30, 2023 and $177.5 million as of December 31, 2022. Our prepaid travel advisor commissions and prepaid credit and debit card fees are recognized at the time of revenue recognition or at the time of voyage cancellation, and are reported primarily within Commissions, transportation and other in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). |

Diluted earnings (loss) per share incorporates the incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options and conversion of potentially dilutive securities. If we have a net loss for the period, all potential common shares will be considered antidilutive, resulting in the same basic and diluted net loss per share amounts for those periods. T here were no antidilutive shares for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and approximately 25,459,641 antidilutive shares from our convertible notes for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 23,526,181 and 23,597,611 antidilutive shares from our stock-based awards and convertible notes for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. |

Investments and Other Assets | Note 5 . Investments and Other Assets A Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) is an entity in which the equity investors have not provided enough equity to finance the entity’s activities or the equity investors: (1) cannot directly or indirectly make decisions about the entity’s activities through their voting rights or similar rights; (2) do not have the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity; (3) do not have the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; or (4) have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and the entity’s activities involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest. We hold equity interests in ventures related to our cruise operations. We account for the majority of these investments as either an equity method investment or a controlled subsidiary. Effective March 31, 2023, we closed on the previously announced partnership agreement with iCON Infrastructure Partners VI, L.P. ("iCON"). This partnership will own, develop, and manage cruise terminal facilities and infrastructure in key ports of call, initially including several development projects in Italy and Spain. As part of the transaction with iCON we also agreed to sell 80% of the entity which owns our terminal at PortMiami. Refer below to equity method investments and controlled subsidiarie s for further information on the transaction. In addition, the partnership will pursue additional port infrastructure developments, including future plans to own, develop, and manage an infrastructure project in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Unconsolidated investments ("equity method investments") We have determined that TUI Cruises GmbH ("TUIC"), our 50%-owned joint venture, which operates the brands TUI Cruises and Hapag-Lloyd Cruises, is a VIE. We have determined that we are not the primary beneficiary of TUIC. We believe that the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact TUIC’s economic performance is shared between ourselves and TUI AG, our joint venture partner. All the significant operating and financial decisions of TUIC require the consent of both parties, which we believe creates shared power over TUIC. Accordingly, we do not consolidate this entity and account for this investment under the equity method of accounting. As of June 30, 2023, the net book value of our investment in TUIC was $508.3 million, primarily consisting of $415.4 million in equity and a loan of €79.3 million, or approximately $86.5 million based on the exchange rate at June 30, 2023. As of December 31, 2022, the net book value of our investment in TUIC was $466.0 million, primarily consisting of $361.5 million in equity and a loan of €87.2 million, or approximately $93.0 million based on the exchange rate at December 31, 2022. The loan, which was made in connection with the sale of Splendour of the Seas in April 2016, accrues interest at a rate of 6.25% per annum and is payable over 10 years. This loan is 50% guaranteed by TUI AG and is secured by a first priority mortgage on the ship. TUIC has various ship construction and financing agreements which include certain restrictions on each of our and TUI AG’s ability to reduce our current ownership interest in TUI Cruises below 37.55% through May 2033. Our investment amount and outstanding term loan are subs tantially our maximum exposure to loss in connection with our investment in TUIC. We have determined that Grand Bahama Shipyard Ltd. ("Grand Bahama"), a ship repair and maintenance facility in which we have a 40% noncontrolling interest, is a VIE. This facility serves cruise and cargo ships, oil and gas tankers and offshore units. We utilize this facility, among other ship repair facilities, for our regularly scheduled drydocks and certain emergency repairs as may be required. We have determined that we are not the primary beneficiary of this facility as we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the facility’s economic performance. Accordingly, we do not consolidate this entity. As part of the transaction with iCON, we sold our controlling interest in two Italian entities for an immaterial amount of net proceeds and recognized an immaterial gain on the sale. At closing, we have determined that the partnership and both Italian entities are VIE's. These entities in Italy represent development projects to own, develop, and manage cruise terminal facilities in key ports of call. We have determined that we are not the primary beneficiary for either of these entities as we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance. Accordingly, we do not consolidate these entities. For further information on the measurements used to estimate the fair value of our equity method investments, refer to Note 11 . Fair Value Measurements and Derivative Instruments . The following tables set forth information regarding our investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting, including the entities discussed above (in thousands): Quarter Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Share of equity income (loss) from investments $ 42,014 $ (13,179) $ 62,485 $ (44,238) Dividends received (1) $ 3,025 $ 563 $ 3,827 $ 986 (1) Represents dividends received net of tax withholdings during the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2023 As of December 31, 2022 Total notes receivable due from equity investments $ 106,586 $ 101,392 Less-current portion (1) 38,237 18,406 Long-term portion (2) $ 68,349 $ 82,986 (1) Included within Trade and other receivables, net in our consolidated balance sheets. (2) Included within Other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. Consolidated investments ("controlled subsidiaries") As part of the transaction with iCON, we sold an 80% interest in the entity which owns our terminal at PortMiami for $208.9 million and retained a 20% minority interest, effective March 31, 2023. We also sold a noncontrolling interest in another entity which is developing a port project in Spain for an immaterial amount. We have determined that both of these entities are VIEs, and we are the primary beneficiary as we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the facility’s economic performance. Accordingly, we will continue to consolidate both entities. The cash consideration received for the sale of the PortMiami terminal company, net of transaction costs, was allocated between paid in capital and noncontrolling interest using the net book value of our investment in the PortMiami terminal, as presented in the statement of shareholders' equity. Other Assets Credit Losses We reviewed our notes receivable for credit losses in connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. In evaluating the allowance, management considered factors such as historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, peer group information and prevailing economic conditions. Our credit loss allowance beginning and ending balances as of June 30, 2023 and 2022 primarily relate to credit losses recognized on notes receivable for the previous sale of certain property and equipment of $81.6 million. The notes receivable associated with previous sale of our property and equipment are related to loans that were originated in 2015 and 2020. The following table summarizes our credit loss allowance related to receivables (in thousands): Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 Balance, beginning of period $ 83,227 $ 100,192 Credit loss (recovery), net (7,868) (10,623) Write-offs (2,499) (9,024) Balance, end of period $ 72,860 $ 80,545 |

(2) During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, we completed our transition from LIBOR to Term SOFR rates for substantially all of our variable rate facilities, with such transition to take effect at the next respective interest reset date for each such facility. (3) Advances under our $1.9 billion facility accrue interest at Term SOFR plus an interest rate margin ranging from 1.30% to 2.05%. Advances under our $1.1 billion facility accrue interest at Term SOFR plus an interest rate margin ranging from 1.70% to 2.05%. Based on applicable Term SOFR rates, as of June 30, 2023, the maximum interest rates under the $1.9 billion facility and the $1.1 billion facility was 7.29%. We also pay a facility fee for each facility ranging from 0.20% to 0.30% of the total commitments under such facility. (4) At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the weighted average interest rate for total debt was 7.16% and 6.23%, respectively. Unsecured revolving credit facilities In January 2023, we amended and extended the majority of our two unsecured revolving credit facilities. The amendment extended the maturities of $2.3 billion of the $3.0 billion aggregate revolving credit capacity by one year to April 2025, with the remainder maturing in April 2024. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2023 we repaid $2.7 billion under our revolving credit facilities, resulting in an aggregate borrowing capacity of $3.0 billion under our unsecured revolving credit facilities as of June 30, 2023. Convertible Notes In June 2023, $350 million of our 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes matured. The notes were settled using a combination of $337.8 million in cash, and the issuance of approximately 374,000 shares of common stock. The issuance of equity increased additional paid in capital by $12.2 million. Debt financing transactions In February 2023, we issued $700 million aggregate principal amount of 7.25% senior guaranteed notes due January 2030 ("7.25% Priority Guaranteed Notes"). Upon closing, we terminated our commitment for the $700 million 364-day term loan facility. In addition, the remaining $350 million backstop committed financing was also terminated upon closing, which resulted in an immaterial loss on extinguishment of debt. In June 2023, we took delivery of Silver Nova . To finance the delivery, we borrowed a total of $503.2 million under the committed financing agreement, resulting in an unsecured term loan which is 95% guaranteed by Euler Hermes. The unsecured loan amortizes semi-annually over 12 years and bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.21% per annum. In June 2023, we repaid $392.0 million of our 11.50% secured senior notes due in June 2025, which resulted in a total loss on extinguishment of debt of Interest expense, net of interest capitalized within our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023. In July 2023, we repaid an additional $300 million of our 11.50% secured senior notes due in June 2025. Export credit agency guarantees Except for the term loans we incurred to acquire Celebrity Flora and Silver Moon, all of our unsecured ship financing term loans are guaranteed by the export credit agency in the respective country in which the ship is constructed. For the majority of the loans as of June 30, 2023, we pay to the applicable export credit agency, depending on the financing agreement, an upfront fee of 2.35% to 5.48% of the maximum loan amount in consideration for these guarantees. We amortize the fees that are paid upfront over the life of the loan. We classify these fees within Amortization of debt issuance costs, discounts and premiums in our consolidated statements of cash flows. Prior to the loan being drawn, we present these fees within Other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. Once the loan is drawn, such fees are classified as a discount to the related loan, or contra-liability account, within Current portion of long-term debt or long-term debt . Debt covenants Our revolving credit facilities, the majority of our term loans, and certain of our credit card processing agreements, contain covenants that require us, among other things, to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio, limit our net debt-to-capital ratio, maintain minimum liquidity, and under certain facilities, to maintain a minimum stockholders' equity. As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with our debt covenants and we estimate we will be in compliance for the next twelve months. The following is a schedule of annual maturities on our total debt, including finance leases, as of June 30, 2023 for each of the next five years (in thousands): Year As of June 30, 2023 (1) Remainder of 2023 $ 1,016,304 2024 1,960,853 2025 3,329,844 2026 2,801,075 2027 3,537,745 Thereafter 8,183,102 $ 20,828,923 |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | Note 7 . Leases Operating Leases Our operating leases primarily relate to preferred berthing arrangements, real estate and shipboard equipment, and are included within Operating lease right-of-use assets , and Long-term operating lease liabilities with the current portion of the liability included within Current portion of operating lease liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on our consolidated balance sheet. We recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Our operating leases include Silver Explorer , operated by Silversea Cruises. The operating lease for Silver Explorer will expire in October 2023 and Silversea Cruises does not intend to renew the lease. For some of our real estate leases and berthing agreements, we do have the option to extend our current lease term. For those lease agreements with renewal options, the renewal periods for real estate leases range from one one As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. We estimate our incremental borrowing rates based on Term SOFR and U.S. Treasury note rates corresponding to lease terms increased by the Company’s credit risk spread and reduced by the estimated impact of collateral. I n addition, we have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. However, for berthing agreements, we account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Finance Leases Our finance leases primarily relate to buildings and surrounding land located at our Miami headquarters and our lease for the Silver Dawn ship. Finance leases are included within Property and Equipment , net and Long-term debt with the current portion of the liability included within Current portion of long-term debt in our consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company's master lease agreement (“Master Lease”) with Miami-Dade County related to the buildings and surrounding land located at our Miami headquarters is classified as a finance lease in accordance with ASC 842, Leases . The Master Lease includes two five-year options to extend the lease which we are reasonably certain to exercise. The total aggregate amount of the finance lease liabilities recorded for this Master Lease was $56.4 million and $55.5 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Silversea Cruises operates Silver Dawn under a sale-leaseback agreement with a bargain purchase option at the end of the 15-year lease term. Due to the bargain purchase option at the end of the lease term in 2036, whereby Silversea Cruises is reasonably certain of obtaining ownership of the ship, Silver Dawn is accounted for as a finance lease. The lease includes other purchase options beginning in year three, none of which are reasonably certain of being exercised at this time. The total aggregate amount of finance lease liabilities recorded for this ship was $255.3 million and $264.8 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The lease payments on the Silver Dawn are subject to adjustments based on the LIBOR rate.

I n addition, we have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. However, for berthing agreements, we account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Finance Leases Our finance leases primarily relate to buildings and surrounding land located at our Miami headquarters and our lease for the Silver Dawn ship. Finance leases are included within Property and Equipment , net and Long-term debt with the current portion of the liability included within Current portion of long-term debt in our consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company's master lease agreement (“Master Lease”) with Miami-Dade County related to the buildings and surrounding land located at our Miami headquarters is classified as a finance lease in accordance with ASC 842, Leases . The Master Lease includes two five-year options to extend the lease which we are reasonably certain to exercise. The total aggregate amount of the finance lease liabilities recorded for this Master Lease was $56.4 million and $55.5 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Silversea Cruises operates Silver Dawn under a sale-leaseback agreement with a bargain purchase option at the end of the 15-year lease term. Due to the bargain purchase option at the end of the lease term in 2036, whereby Silversea Cruises is reasonably certain of obtaining ownership of the ship, Silver Dawn is accounted for as a finance lease. The lease includes other purchase options beginning in year three, none of which are reasonably certain of being exercised at this time. The total aggregate amount of finance lease liabilities recorded for this ship was $255.3 million and $264.8 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The lease payments on the Silver Dawn are subject to adjustments based on the LIBOR rate.

Commitments and Contingencies | Note 8 . Commitments and Contingencies Ship Purchase Obligations Our future capital commitments consist primarily of new ship orders. As of June 30, 2023, the dates that the ships on order by our Global and Partner Brands are expected to be delivered, subject to change in the event of construction delays, and their approximate berths are as follows: Ship Shipyard Expected delivery Approximate Royal Caribbean International — Oasis-class: Utopia of the Seas Chantiers de l'Atlantique 2nd Quarter 2024 5,700 Icon-class: Icon of the Seas Meyer Turku Oy 4th Quarter 2023 5,600 Unnamed Meyer Turku Oy 2nd Quarter 2025 5,600 Unnamed Meyer Turku Oy 2nd Quarter 2026 5,600 Celebrity Cruises — Edge-class: Celebrity Ascent Chantiers de l'Atlantique 4th Quarter 2023 3,250 Unnamed Chantiers de l'Atlantique 4th Quarter 2025 3,250 Silversea Cruises — Evolution Class: Silver Ray Meyer Werft 2nd Quarter 2024 730 TUI Cruises (50% joint venture) — Mein Schiff 7 Meyer Turku Oy 2nd Quarter 2024 2,900 Unnamed Fincantieri 4th Quarter 2024 4,100 Unnamed Fincantieri 2nd Quarter 2026 4,100 Total Berths 40,830 During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, we received commitments for the unsecured financing of the fifth Edge-class ship for up to 80% of the ship’s contract price and our building contract with Chantiers de l'Atlantique became effective. Bpifrance Assurance Export, the official French export credit agency, has agreed to guarantee to the lenders 100% of the financing. In June 2023, we amended the credit agreement for Celebrity Ascent, to increase the maximum loan amount by €32.1 million or $35.0 million based on the exchange rate at June 30, 2023. Interest on the incremental portion of the loan will accrue at a floating rate equal to Term SOFR plus 1.45%. As of June 30, 2023, the aggregate cost of our ships on order presented in the table above, not including any ships on order by our Partner Brands, was approximately $11.0 billion, of which we had deposited $1.0 billion as of such date. Refer to Note 11 . Fair Value Measurements and Derivative Instruments for further information. Litigation As previously reported, a lawsuit was filed against us in August 2019 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida (the "Court") under Title III of the Cuban Liberty and Democratic Solidarity Act, also known as the Helms-Burton Act. The complaint filed by Havana Docks Corporation alleges it holds an interest in the Havana Cruise Port Terminal, which was expropriated by the Cuban government. The complaint further alleges that we trafficked in the terminal by embarking and disembarking passengers at these facilities. The plaintiff seeks all available statutory remedies, including the value of the expropriated property, plus interest, treble damages, attorneys’ fees and costs. The Court entered final judgment in December 2022 in favor of the plaintiff and awarded damages and attorneys' fees to the plaintiff in the aggregate amount of approximately $112 million. We have appealed the judgment to the United States Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit and the plaintiff has cross-appealed with regards to the interest calculation used for purposes of determining damages. We believe we have meritorious grounds for and intend to vigorously pursue our appeal. During the fourth quarter of 2022, we recorded a charge of approximately $130.0 million to Other (expense) income within our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) related to the Havana Docks Action, including post-judgment interest and related legal defense costs and bonding fees. In addition, we are routinely involved in claims typical within the cruise vacation industry. The majority of these claims are covered by insurance. We believe the outcome of such claims, net of expected insurance recoveries, will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations and cash flows. Other Some of the contracts that we enter into include indemnification provisions that obligate us to make payments to the counterparty if certain events occur. These contingencies generally relate to changes in taxes, increased lender capital costs and other similar costs. The indemnification clauses are often standard contractual terms and are entered into in the normal course of business. There are no stated or notional amounts included in the indemnification clauses and we are not able to estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments, if any, under these indemnification clauses. We have not been required to make any payments under such indemnification clauses in the past and, under current circumstances, we do not believe an indemnification in any material amount is probable. If any person acquires ownership of more than 50% of our common stock or, subject to certain exceptions, during any 24-month period, a majority of our board of directors is no longer comprised of individuals who were members of our board of directors on the first day of such period, we may be obligated to prepay indebtedness outstanding under our credit facilities, which we may be unable to replace on similar terms. Our public debt securities also contain change of control provisions that would be triggered by a third-party acquisition of greater than 50% of our common stock coupled with a ratings downgrade. If this were to occur, it would have an adverse impact on our liquidity and operations. |

Shareholders' Equity | Note 9 . Shareholders' Equity Dividends We did not declare any dividends during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. We were previously restricted under certain of our credit facilities from paying dividends while waivers to the financial covenants within such facilities were in effect. While the waivers have now expired, in the event we declare a dividend, we will need to repay the principal amounts deferred under our export credit facilities. Noncontrolling Interests Effective March 31, 2023, we closed the previously announced partnership with iCON. We sold 80% of the entity which owns our terminal at PortMiami for $208.9 million and retained a 20% minority interest. The cash consideration received, net of transaction costs, was allocated between paid in capital and noncontrolling interest in the accompanying consolidated statement of shareholders' equity for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Fair Value Measurements and Derivative Instruments Fair Value Measurements The estimated fair value of our financial instruments that are not measured at fair value, categorized based upon the fair value hierarchy, are as follows (in thousands): Fair Value Measurements at June 30, 2023 Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2022 Description Total Carrying Amount Total Fair Value Level 1 (1) Level 2 (2) Level 3 (3) Total Carrying Amount Total Fair Value Level 1 (1) Level 2 (2) Level 3 (3) Assets: Cash and cash equivalents (4) $ 726,424 $ 726,424 $ 726,424 $ — $ — $ 1,935,005 $ 1,935,005 $ 1,935,005 $ — $ — Total Assets $ 726,424 $ 726,424 $ 726,424 $ — $ — $ 1,935,005 $ 1,935,005 $ 1,935,005 $ — $ — Liabilities: Long-term debt (including current portion of debt) (5) $ 20,067,802 $ 21,873,063 $ — $ 21,873,063 $ — $ 23,039,859 $ 22,856,306 $ — $ 22,856,306 $ — Total Liabilities $ 20,067,802 $ 21,873,063 $ — $ 21,873,063 $ — $ 23,039,859 $ 22,856,306 $ — $ 22,856,306 $ — (1) Inputs based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets that we have the ability to access. Valuation of these items does not entail a significant amount of judgment. (2) Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the liability, either directly or indirectly. For unsecured revolving credit facilities and unsecured term loans, fair value is determined utilizing the income valuation approach. This valuation model takes into account the contract terms of our debt such as the debt maturity and the interest rate on the debt. The valuation model also takes into account the creditworthiness of the Company. We valued our senior notes and convertible notes using a quoted market price, which is considered a Level 2 input as it is observable in the market; however, these instruments have a limited trading volume and as such this fair value estimate is not necessarily indicative of the value at which the instruments could be retired or transferred. (3) Inputs that are unobservable. The Company did not use any Level 3 inputs as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. (4) Consists of cash and marketable securities with original maturities of less than 90 days. (5) Consists of unsecured revolving credit facilities, senior notes, term loans and convertible notes. These amounts do not include our finance lease obligations. Other Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued interest and accrued expenses approximate fair value at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value have been categorized based upon the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents information about the Company’s financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands): Fair Value Measurements at June 30, 2023 Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2022 Description Total Level 1 (1) Level 2 (2) Level 3 (3) Total Level 1 (1) Level 2 (2) Level 3 (3) Assets: Derivative financial instruments (4) $ 171,629 $ — $ 171,629 $ — $ 203,802 $ — $ 203,802 $ — Total Assets $ 171,629 $ — $ 171,629 $ — $ 203,802 $ — $ 203,802 $ — Liabilities: Derivative financial instruments (4) $ 141,832 $ — $ 141,832 $ — $ 135,608 $ — $ 135,608 $ — Total Liabilities $ 141,832 $ — $ 141,832 $ — $ 135,608 $ — $ 135,608 $ — (1) Inputs based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Valuation of these items does not entail a significant amount of judgment. No Level 1 inputs were used in fair value measurements of other financial instruments as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. (2) Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. For foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and fuel swaps, fair value is derived using valuation models that utilize the income valuation approach. These valuation models take into account the contract terms, such as maturity, as well as other inputs, such as foreign exchange rates and curves, fuel types, fuel curves and interest rate yield curves. Derivative instrument fair values take into account the creditworthiness of the counterparty and the Company. (3) Inputs that are unobservable. No Level 3 inputs were used in fair value measurements of other financial instruments as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. (4) Consists of foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate and fuel swaps. Refer to the "Fair Value of Derivative Instruments" table for breakdown by instrument type. The reported fair values are based on a variety of factors and assumptions. Accordingly, the fair values may not represent actual values of the financial instruments that could have been realized as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022, or that will be realized in the future, and do not include expenses that could be incurred in an actual sale or settlement. Nonfinancial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis Nonfinancial instruments include items such as goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets, long-lived assets, right-of-use assets and equity method investments that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when events and circumstances indicate the carrying value is not recoverable. There were no nonfinancial instruments recorded at fair value as of June 30, 2023. Master Netting Agreements We have master International Swaps and Derivatives Association (“ISDA”) agreements in place with our derivative instrument counterparties. These ISDA agreements generally provide for final close out netting with our counterparties for all positions in the case of default or termination of the ISDA agreement. We have determined that our ISDA agreements provide us with rights of setoff on the fair value of derivative instruments in a gain position and those in a loss position with the same counterparty. We have elected not to offset such derivative instrument fair values in our consolidated balance sheets. See Credit Related Contingent Features for further discussion on contingent collateral requirements for our derivative instruments. The following table presents information about the Company’s offsetting of financial assets under master netting agreements with derivative counterparties (in thousands): Gross Amounts not Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheet that are Subject to Master Netting Agreements As of June 30, 2023 As of December 31, 2022 Gross Amount of Derivative Assets Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheet Gross Amount of Eligible Offsetting Cash Collateral Net Amount of Gross Amount of Derivative Assets Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheet Gross Amount of Eligible Offsetting Cash Collateral Net Amount of Derivatives subject to master netting agreements $ 171,629 $ (83,061) $ — $ 88,568 $ 203,802 $ (105,228) $ — $ 98,574 Total $ 171,629 $ (83,061) $ — $ 88,568 $ 203,802 $ (105,228) $ — $ 98,574 The following table presents information about the Company’s offsetting of financial liabilities under master netting agreements with derivative counterparties (in thousands): Gross Amounts not Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheet that are Subject to Master Netting Agreements As of June 30, 2023 As of December 31, 2022 Gross Amount of Derivative Liabilities Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheet Gross Amount of Eligible Offsetting Cash Collateral Net Amount of Gross Amount of Derivative Liabilities Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheet Gross Amount of Eligible Offsetting Cash Collateral Net Amount of Derivatives subject to master netting agreements $ (141,832) $ 83,061 $ — $ (58,771) $ (135,608) $ 105,228 $ — $ (30,380) Total $ (141,832) $ 83,061 $ — $ (58,771) $ (135,608) $ 105,228 $ — $ (30,380) Concentrations of Credit Risk We monitor our credit risk associated with financial and other institutions with which we conduct significant business, and to minimize these risks, we select counterparties with credit risks acceptable to us and we seek to limit our exposure to an individual counterparty. Credit risk, including, but not limited to, counterparty nonperformance under derivative instruments, our credit facilities and new ship progress payment guarantees, is not considered significant, as we primarily conduct business with large, well-established financial institutions, insurance companies and export credit agencies many of which we have long-term relationships with and which have credit risks acceptable to us or where the credit risk is spread out among a large number of counterparties. As of June 30, 2023, we had counterparty credit risk exposure under our derivative instruments of $98.9 million, which was limited to the cost of replacing the contracts in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to the contracts, the majority of which are currently our lending banks. We do not anticipate nonperformance by any of our significant counterparties. In addition, we have established guidelines we follow regarding credit ratings and instrument maturities to maintain safety and liquidity. We do not normally require collateral or other security to support credit relationships; however, in certain circumstances this option is available to us. Derivative Instruments We are exposed to market risk attributable to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and fuel prices. We try to mitigate these risks through a combination of our normal operating and financing activities and through the use of derivative financial instruments pursuant to our hedging practices and policies. The financial impact of these hedging instruments is primarily offset by corresponding changes in the underlying exposures being hedged. We achieve this by closely matching the notional amount, term and conditions of the derivative instrument with the underlying risk being hedged. Although certain of our derivative financial instruments do not qualify or are not accounted for under hedge accounting, our objective is not to hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes. We enter into various forward, swap and option contracts to manage our interest rate exposure and to limit our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and fuel prices. These instruments are recorded on the balance sheet at their fair value and the vast majority are designated as hedges. We also use non-derivative financial instruments designated as hedges of our net investment in our foreign operations and investments. At inception of the hedge relationship, a derivative instrument that hedges the exposure to changes in the fair value of a firm commitment or a recognized asset or liability is designated as a fair value hedge. A derivative instrument that hedges a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows related to a recognized asset or liability is designated as a cash flow hedge. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated as fair value hedges are offset against changes in the fair value of the underlying hedged assets, liabilities or firm commitments. Gains and losses on derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges are recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss until the underlying hedged transactions are recognized in earnings. The foreign currency transaction gain or loss of our non-derivative financial instruments and the changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as hedges of our net investment in foreign operations and investments are recognized as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss along with the associated foreign currency translation adjustment of the foreign operation or investment. In certain hedges of our net investment in foreign operations and investments, we exclude forward points from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and we amortize the related amounts directly into earnings. On an ongoing basis, we assess whether derivatives used in hedging transactions are "highly effective" in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flow of hedged items. For our net investment hedges, we use the dollar offset method to measure effectiveness. For all other hedging programs, we use the long-haul method to assess hedge effectiveness using regression analysis for each hedge relationship. The methodology for assessing hedge effectiveness is applied on a consistent basis for each one of our hedging programs (i.e., interest rate, foreign currency ship construction, foreign currency net investment and fuel). For our regression analyses, we use an observation period of up to three years, utilizing market data relevant to the hedge horizon of each hedge relationship. High effectiveness is achieved when a statistically valid relationship reflects a high degree of offset and correlation between the changes in the fair values of the derivative instrument and the hedged item. If it is determined that a derivative is not highly effective as a hedge or hedge accounting is discontinued, any change in fair value of the derivative since the last date at which it was determined to be highly effective is recognized in earnings. Cash flows from derivative instruments that are designated as fair value or cash flow hedges are classified in the same category as the cash flows from the underlying hedged items. In the event that hedge accounting is discontinued, cash flows subsequent to the date of discontinuance are classified within investing activities. Cash flows from derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments are classified as investing activities. We consider the classification of the underlying hedged item’s cash flows in determining the classification for the designated derivative instrument’s cash flows. We classify derivative instrument cash flows from hedges of benchmark interest rate or hedges of fuel expense as operating activities due to the nature of the hedged item. Likewise, we classify derivative instrument cash flows from hedges of foreign currency risk on our newbuild ship payments as investing activities. Interest Rate Risk Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates primarily relates to our debt obligations, including future interest payments. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, approximately 86% and 75%, respectively, of our debt was effectively fixed-rate debt, which is net of our interest rate swap agreements. We use interest rate swap agreements to modify our exposure to interest rate movements and to manage our interest expense. Market risk associated with our fixed-rate debt is the potential increase in fair value resulting from a decrease in interest rates. We use interest rate swap agreements that effectively convert a portion of our fixed-rate debt to a floating-rate basis to manage this risk. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 , there were no interest rate swap agreements for fixed-rate debt instruments. We use interest rate swap agreements that effectively convert a portion of our floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis to manage the market risk of increasing interest rates. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we maintained interest rate swap agreements on the following floating-rate debt instruments: Debt Instrument Swap Notional as of June 30, 2023 (in thousands) Maturity Debt Floating Rate (3) All-in Swap Fixed Rate as of June 30, 2023 Celebrity Reflection term loan $ 81,813 October 2024 LIBOR plus 0.40% 2.85% Quantum of the Seas term loan 214,375 October 2026 LIBOR plus 1.30% 3.74% Anthem of the Seas term loan 241,667 April 2027 LIBOR plus 1.30% 3.86% Ovation of the Seas term loan 345,833 April 2028 LIBOR plus 1.00% 3.16% Harmony of the Seas term loan (1) 315,251 May 2028 EURIBOR plus 1.15% 2.26% Odyssey of the Seas term loan (2) 364,167 October 2032 LIBOR plus 0.96% 3.21% Odyssey of the Seas term loan (2) 182,083 October 2032 LIBOR plus 0.96% 2.84% $ 1,745,189 (1) Interest rate swap agreements hedging the Euro-denominated term loan for Harmony of the Seas include EURIBOR zero-floors matching the hedged debt EURIBOR zero-floor.

(3) During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, we completed our transition from LIBOR to Term SOFR rates for substantially all of our Interest rate swap agreements, with such transition to take effect at the next respective interest reset date for each such agreement. These interest rate swap agreements are accounted for as cash flow hedges. The notional amount of interest rate swap agreements related to outstanding debt as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $1.7 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively. Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk Derivative Instruments Our primary exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk relates to our ship construction contracts denominated in Euros, our foreign currency denominated debt and our international business operations. We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to manage portions of the exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. As of June 30, 2023, the aggregate cost of our ships on order was $11.0 billion, of which we had deposited $1.0 billion as of such date. These amounts do not include any ships placed on order that are contingent upon completion of conditions precedent and/or financing and any ships on order by our Partner Brands. Refer to Note 8 . Commitments and Contingencies , for further information on our ships on order. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, approximately 42.3% and 52.3%, respectively, of the aggregate cost of the ships under construction was exposed to fluctuations in the Euro exchange rate. Our foreign currency forward contract agreements are accounted for as cash flow or net investment hedges depending on the designation of the related hedge. On a regular basis, we enter into foreign currency forward contracts and, from time to time, we utilize cross-currency swap agreements and collar options to minimize the volatility resulting from the remeasurement of net monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than our functional currency or the functional currencies of our foreign subsidiaries. During the second quarter of 2023 and 2022 the average notional amount of foreign currency forward contracts was approximately $1.3 billion, respectively. These instruments are not designated as hedging instruments. For the quarters ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, changes in the fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts resulted in gains (losses) of $8.3 million and $(80.9) million, respectively, which offset (losses) gains arising from the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies in those same periods of $(16.3) million and $78.6 million, respectively. These amounts were recognized in earnings within Other (expense) income in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, changes in the fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts resulted in gain (losses) of $12.4 million and $(87.9) million, respectively, which offset (losses) gains arising from the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies in those same periods of $(27.3) million and $85.8 million, respectively. These amounts were recognized in earnings within Other (expense) income in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). The notional amount of outstanding foreign exchange contracts, excluding the forward contracts entered into to minimize remeasurement volatility, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $4.0 billion and $2.9 billion, respectively. Non-Derivative Instruments We consider our investment in our foreign operations to be denominated in relatively stable currencies and to be of a long-term nature. We address the exposure of our investments in foreign operations by denominating a portion of our debt in our subsidiaries’ and investments’ functional currencies and designating it as a hedge of these subsidiaries and investments. We had designated debt as a hedge of our net investments primarily in TUI Cruises of €461.8 million, or approximately $503.9 million, as of June 30, 2023. As of December 31, 2022, we had designated debt as a hedge of our net investments primarily in TUI Cruises of €433.0 million, or approximately $461.9 million. Fuel Price Risk Our exposure to market risk for changes in fuel prices relates primarily to the consumption of fuel on our ships. We use fuel swap agreements to mitigate the financial impact of fluctuations in fuel prices. Our fuel swap agreements are generally accounted for as cash flow hedges. In the case that our hedged forecasted fuel consumption is not probable of occurring, hedge accounting will be discontinued and the related accumulated other comprehensive gain or loss will be reclassified to Other income (expense) immediately. For hedged forecasted fuel consumption that remains possible of occurring, hedge accounting will be discontinued and the related accumulated other comprehensive gain or loss will remain in accumulated other comprehensive gain or loss until the underlying hedged transactions are recognized in earnings or the related hedged forecasted fuel consumption is deemed probable of not occurring. Changes in the fair value of fuel swaps for which cash flow hedge accounting was discontinued are currently recognized in Other (expense) income for each reporting period through the maturity dates of the fuel swaps. For the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, we did not discontinue cash flow hedge accounting on any of our fuel swap agreements. At June 30, 2023, we have hedged the variability in future cash flows for certain forecasted fuel transactions occurring through 2024 and 2025. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had the following outstanding fuel swap agreements: Fuel Swap Agreements As of June 30, 2023 As of December 31, 2022 Designated as hedges: (metric tons) 2023 448,100 825,651 2024 791,051 — 2025 456,000 — Fuel Swap Agreements As of June 30, 2023 As of December 31, 2022 Designated hedges as a % of projected fuel purchases: (% hedged) 2023 54 % 50 % 2024 45 % — % 2025 25 % — % As of June 30, 2023, there was $31.7 million of estimated unrealized net loss associated with our cash flow hedges pertaining to fuel swap agreements that is expected to be reclassified to earnings from Accumulated other comprehensive loss within the next twelve months when compared to $7.9 million of estimated unrealized net loss at December 31, 2022. Reclassification is expected to occur as the result of fuel consumption associated with our hedged forecasted fuel purchases.

Specifically, under most of our agreements, if on the fifth anniversary of executing a derivative instrument, or on any succeeding fifth-year anniversary, our credit ratings for our senior unsecured debt is rated below BBB- by Standard & Poor’s and Baa3 by Moody’s, then the counterparty will periodically have the right to demand that we post collateral in an amount equal to the difference between (i) the net market value of all derivative transactions with such counterparty that have reached their fifth year anniversary, to the extent negative, and (ii) the applicable minimum call amount. The amount of collateral required to be posted will change as, and to the extent, our net liability position increases or decreases by more than the applicable minimum call amount. If our credit rating for our senior unsecured debt is subsequently equal to or above BBB- by Standard & Poor’s or Baa3 by Moody’s, then any collateral posted at such time will be released to us and we will no longer be required to post collateral unless we meet the collateral trigger requirement, generally, at the next fifth-year anniversary. |

Valuation of these items does not entail a significant amount of judgment. (2) Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the liability, either directly or indirectly. For unsecured revolving credit facilities and unsecured term loans, fair value is determined utilizing the income valuation approach. This valuation model takes into account the contract terms of our debt such as the debt maturity and the interest rate on the debt. The valuation model also takes into account the creditworthiness of the Company. We valued our senior notes and convertible notes using a quoted market price, which is considered a Level 2 input as it is observable in the market; however, these instruments have a limited trading volume and as such this fair value estimate is not necessarily indicative of the value at which the instruments could be retired or transferred. (3) Inputs that are unobservable. The Company did not use any Level 3 inputs as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

(2) Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. For foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and fuel swaps, fair value is derived using valuation models that utilize the income valuation approach. These valuation models take into account the contract terms, such as maturity, as well as other inputs, such as foreign exchange rates and curves, fuel types, fuel curves and interest rate yield curves. Derivative instrument fair values take into account the creditworthiness of the counterparty and the Company. (3) Inputs that are unobservable.

[1]Consists of cash and marketable securities with original maturities of less than 90 days.[2]Inputs based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets that we have the ability to access. Valuation of these items does not entail a significant amount of judgment.[3]Consists of unsecured revolving credit facilities, senior notes, term loans and convertible notes. These amounts do not include our finance lease obligations.[4]Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the liability, either directly or indirectly. For unsecured revolving credit facilities and unsecured term loans, fair value is determined utilizing the income valuation approach. This valuation model takes into account the contract terms of our debt such as the debt maturity and the interest rate on the debt. The valuation model also takes into account the creditworthiness of the Company. We valued our senior notes and convertible notes using a quoted market price, which is considered a Level 2 input as it is observable in the market; however, these instruments have a limited trading volume and as such this fair value estimate is not necessarily indicative of the value at which the instruments could be retired or transferred.[5]Inputs that are unobservable. The Company did not use any Level 3 inputs as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. |
