Riches leaves Norwegian Cruise Line
Norwegian Cruise Line's head of marketing Claire Riches has left the company following a merger of its marketing teams in the UK and Germany.
Riches had led the company's London-based marketing team for three years.
Kevin Bubolz, previously head of revenue management Europe, has been appointed director business planning and marketing for European revenue management and marketing across the London and Wiesbaden office.
He will be supported by Tina Kunze, previously co-ordinator pricing and revenue management, who takes over responsibility for the revenue management department, with Eva-Maria Muth leading the European marketing team. Muth previously headed the marketing team for Continental Europe from Wiesbaden.
NCL said it has merged its London and Wiesbaden marketing teams 'to optimize the operational processes and increase efficiency'.
The company began the consolidation of its European business in May with the appointment of Francis Riley as vice president and general manager, international.
