3. Revenue Recognition Disaggregation of Revenue Revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors in various geographical regions. Revenues by destination were as follows (in thousands):
North America includes the U.S., the Caribbean, Canada and Mexico. Europe includes the Baltic region, Canary Islands and Mediterranean. Asia-Pacific includes Australia, New Zealand and Asia. Other includes all other international territories. Geographic Concentration Although we sell cruises on an international basis, our passenger ticket revenue is primarily attributed to U.S.-sourced guests who make reservations through the U.S. Revenue attributable to U.S.-sourced guests has approximated 84-85% of total revenue over the preceding three fiscal years. No other individual country’s revenues exceed 10% in any given period. Contract Balances Receivables from customers are included within accounts receivable, net. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our receivables from customers were $130.5 million and $114.2 million, respectively, primarily related to in-transit credit card receivables.
Our contract liabilities are included within advance ticket sales. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our contract liabilities were $2.8 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively. Of the amounts included within contract liabilities as of March 31, 2025, approximately 45% were refundable in accordance with our cancellation policies. Of the deposits included within advance ticket sales, the majority are refundable in accordance with our cancellation policies and it is uncertain to what extent guests may request refunds. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, $1.5 billion of revenue recognized was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period. |
