MIAMI - January 15, 2010 - Royal Caribbean Cruises, one of Haiti's largest foreign investors for almost 30 years, today announced its plans to provide at least $1 million in humanitarian relief to Haiti in response to the catastrophic earthquake in Port-Au-Prince. Royal Caribbean will be partnering with charitable organizations - such as Food for the Poor, Pan American Development Foundation, and the Solano Foundation, the company’s foundation in Haiti - to provide additional assistance to the people of Haiti.

A longtime favorite port of call for guests sailing on select Eastern and Western Caribbean itineraries, Royal Caribbean International's private beach destination of Labadee, Haiti now boasts extensive new infrastructure enhancements and amenities for guests. This multi-year development project will be completed in time to welcome Royal Caribbean's newest and most innovative cruise ship, Oasis of the Seas, on the ship's December 1, 2009, special voyage.
