The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, the Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's decrease in bookings outside China and its faulty policies and procedures to prevent the circulation of COVID-19 on its cruise ships. Specifically, regarding worldwide bookings, Royal Caribbean made announcements that: (1) misled investors to believe that any issue related to COVID-19 was relatively insignificant; (2) falsely assured investors that bookings outside China were strong with no signs of a slowdown; and (3) failed to disclose that the Company was undergoing material declines in bookings globally due to customer concerns over COVID-19.

Additionally, regarding safety procedures, the Company made announcements that: (1) falsely assured investors that it implemented rigorous safety procedures; (2) such procedures were expected to ultimately contain the circulation of COVID-19; and (3) failed to disclose that its cruise ships were following grossly inadequate procedures that would facilitate the circulation of COVID-19 and pose a substantial risk to passengers and crews; and (4) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants' positive statements about the Company's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
