The amount spent on goods has also doubled.<\/p>\n<p class=\"pb-2\" data-private=\"redact\" data-wt-guid=\"1c3f3014-bf3b-4526-8f72-aa69bd903d4b\">According to Liberty, despite increased prices, &#8220;we are not seeing an impact on our demand from price increases.&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"pb-2\" data-private=\"redact\" data-wt-guid=\"6ba850e7-aaa6-430b-a44e-37d1b7b21351\">The main reason for this was the company&#8217;s ability to be much more effective in curating the process of booking activities on the ship for customers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"pb-2\" data-private=\"redact\" data-wt-guid=\"cc729bd8-fd93-46e0-9d70-28087c3f4d6e\">We want to give our guests back a day the next time they come on our ships so that instead of them having to book their restaurants and spa appointments the day before, they can do it in advance.&#8221; Liberty concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Royal Caribbean Group&#8217;s second quarter earnings call
