Carnival Corp. said Friday that it's Germany-based AIDA Cruises was extending its pause of operations through July 31, as regulations regarding restarting international tourism in many of AIDA's destinations, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, have not yet been fully clarified. The company said it will reimburse all guests who have had their cruises cancelled, and will offer a 10% bonus on top of what has been paid for those receiving a travel credit. The bonus can be used for booking until the end of 2021. Carnival's stock soared 11.7% in premarket trading, after jumping 12.6% on Tuesday, amid growing optimism about easing of COVID-19-related lockdowns. The stock was still down 48.9% over the past three months through Tuesday, while the S&P 500 has gained 0.4%.

A holiday weekend, a new week, and a new coronavirus vaccine candidate -- these three factors helped spark a new stock rally Tuesday, and cruise line stocks Carnival Corporation (NYSE: CCL), Royal Caribbean (NYSE: RCL), and Norwegian Cruise Line (NYSE: NCLH) are key beneficiaries of the optimism today. In 1 p.m. EDT trading, shares of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings stock are up a whopping 15.0%, with Carnival (up 12.7%) and Royal Caribbean (up 13.8%) shares not far behind.

Seabourn, the world's finest ultra-luxury travel experience, has enhanced its "Book with Confidence" policy, which provides travelers with even more flexibility, assurance and options to cancel their booking up to 30 days prior to departure on any new bookings and receive a future cruise credit. The enhanced policy, which now applies to 2021 departures, also includes a new "Best Fare Guarantee" benefit, ensuring guests can have peace of mind that they can always request the lowest publicly available fare offered for their voyage in the event fares are lowered following booking.

In the first few minutes of trading Wednesday, shares of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings (NYSE: NCLH), Carnival Corporation (NYSE: CCL), and Royal Caribbean (NYSE: RCL) rushed forward in near lockstep, rising 11.3%, 11.5%, and 11.6% -- but the rally didn't last the hour. Seems investors can't make up their minds what's going on with the cruise industry today. Clearly cruise stocks are moving as a group, and not based on how investors weigh their individual merits -- which isn't surprising.

In the last few weeks, bio-tech companies of all sizes have made impressive strides toward a vaccine. Many dozens of approaches are being taken, most will fail. With a future potential coronavirus inoculation carrying such an overwhelmingly positive public utility, which company will win?
