PANAMA (Alliance News) - Cruise operator Carnival Corp. & PLC Friday said that David Dingle has been appointed chairman of Carnival UK, and David Noyes, currently executive vice president operations, has been promoted to the CEO role, with operating responsibility for the UK-based brands P&O Cruises and Cunard Line.
Dingle and Noyes will take up their new roles on October 1, and will both report to Carnival Corporation & PLC president and CEO Arnold Donald.
Dingle, who became CEO in 2007, joined P&O Cruises in London in 1978 where, after holding a series of commercial positions, he became managing director in 2000. At the time of the merger of P&O Princess Cruises PLC and the Carnival Corporation in April 2003, he became managing director of Carnival UK.
Noyes joined Carnival UK in 2011, in his current position. Prior to joining Carnival, he worked in the UK travel industry for 25 years, mainly with British Airways, where he was responsible for BA's worldwide customer services operation, and latterly with Gray Dawes Travel as CEO.
Elaine Holt will join Carnival UK on October 1 as David Noyes' replacement as executive vice president operations following a highly successful career in the rail, road and airline industries. She has led a series of transformational programmes as executive chairman of East Coast Mainline and before that as managing director of First Capital Connect. Most recently she has acted as a non executive director of the Highways Agency.
