Retirement Benefits [Abstract] |
Defined Benefit Pension Plans and Restructuring Costs | Defined Benefit Pension Plans and Restructuring CostsWe have several single-employer defined benefit pension plans, which cover some of our shipboard and shoreside employees. The U.S. and UK shoreside employee plans are closed to new membership and are funded at or above the level required by U.S. or UK regulations. As required by UK regulations, the UK employee plan is undergoing its triennial valuation. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the economic environment and our operations, the finalization of the valuation may result in a plan deficit, which would then trigger a funding obligation under UK regulations. The remaining defined benefit plans are primarily unfunded. In determining all of our plans’ benefit obligations at November 30, 2019 and 2018, we assumed a weighted-average discount rate of 2.4% for 2019 and 3.4% for 2018.In May 2020, we announced a combination of layoffs, furloughs and salary reductions across the company in response to the extended pause in our global cruise operations. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020, we incurred restructuring costs of $3 million and $42 million, principally consisting of severance and our continued payment of health benefits to affected employees. These costs are included in the selling and administrative line item within our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).
