Carnival Corp and Royal Caribbean Cruises on Tuesday said they would appeal a U.S. court ruling ordering them and two other cruise operators to pay $110 million each in damages for use of a port that Cuba's government confiscated in 1960.
ruled last week to award a total of $440 million to the plaintiff, Delaware-registered Havana Docks Corp; registered to two U.S. citizens who claim to be descendants of the original owners of the Havana Cruise Port Terminal.
"The plantiff is awarded $109,671,180.90 in damages," the ruling against Carnival said, while the rulings against Norwegian, Royal Caribbean and MSC - the latest of which was published on Tuesday - saw the plaintiff awarded $109,848,747.87 from each liner. "This is a very important ruling by Judge Bloom. The commercial use of confiscated property in Cuba in violation of U.S. law carries clearly detailed and well-known and publicized legal consequences," said Roberto Martinez, attorney for Havana Docks.
