post_text: ( 1 ) source : our estimates . ( 2 ) source : cruise line international association based on cruise passengers carried for at least two consecutive nights . in an effort to penetrate untapped markets and diversify our customer base , we have redeployed some of the ships in our royal caribbean international and celebrity cruises brands from the north american market to europe , latin america and asia . this redeployment has contributed to an increase in the growth of our global cruise brands outside of the north american market . although the global and north american cruise markets have grown steadily over the past several years , the recent weakening of the united states and other economies has significantly deteriorated consumer confidence and discretionary spending . this has caused a global drop in demand for cruises and a resulting drop in cruise prices . the long-term impact of these conditions on the continued growth of the cruise mar- ket will depend on the depth and duration of this worldwide economic downturn . in addition , the projected increase in capacity within the cruise industry from new cruise ships currently on order could produce addi- tional pricing pressures within the industry . see item 1a . risk factors . we compete with a number of cruise lines ; however , our principal competitors are carnival corporation & plc , which owns , among others , aida cruises , carnival cruise lines , costa cruises , cunard line , holland america line , p&o cruises and princess cruises and has a joint venture with orizonia corporation under which they operate iberocruceros ; disney cruise line ; msc cruises ; norwegian cruise line and oceania cruises . cruise lines compete with other vacation alter- natives such as land-based resort hotels and sightseeing destinations for consumers 2019 leisure time . demand for such activities is influenced by political and general economic conditions . companies within the vacation market are dependent on consumer discretionary spending . although vacation spending is likely to be curtailed significantly in the midst of the current worldwide economic downturn , we believe that cruising is perceived by consumers as a good value when compared to other vacation alternatives . our ships operate worldwide and have itineraries that call on destina- tions in alaska , asia , australia , the bahamas , bermuda , california , canada , the caribbean , europe , the galapagos islands , hawaii , mexico , new england , new zealand , the panama canal and south america . operating strategies our principal operating strategies are to : manage the efficiency of our operating expenditures and preserve cash and liquidity during the current worldwide economic downturn , increase the awareness and market penetration of our brands , expand our fleet with the new state-of-the-art cruise ships currently on order , expand into new markets and itineraries , continue to expand and diversify our passenger mix through passen- ger sourcing outside north america , protect the health , safety and security of our passengers and employees and protect the environment in which our vessels and organization operate , utilize sophisticated revenue management capabilities to optimize revenue based on demand for our products , further improve our technological capabilities , and maintain strong relationships with travel agencies , the principal indus- try distribution channel , while offering direct access for consumers . manage operating expenditures and preserve cash and liquidity during the current worldwide economic downturn we are focused on maximizing the efficiency of our operating expenditures and preserving cash and liquidity . during 2008 , we announced the reduction in our workforce of approximately 400 shoreside positions and implemented a number of cost-saving initiatives in an effort to reduce our operating costs . to preserve liquidity , we have discontinued our quarterly dividend commencing in the fourth quarter of 2008 , curtailed our non-shipbuild capital expenditures , and currently do not have plans to place further newbuild orders . we believe these strategies will enhance our ability to fund our capital spending obligations and improve our balance sheet. .
