Segment Information
Segment Information
We have three reportable cruise segments that are comprised of our (1) North America cruise brands, (2) EAA cruise brands and (3) Cruise Support. In addition, we have a Tour and Other segment. Our segments are reported on the same basis as the internally reported information that is provided to our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who is the Chairman of the Boards of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc. Decisions to allocate resources and assess performance for Carnival Corporation & plc are made by the CODM upon review of the segment results across all of our cruise brands and other segments.
Our North America cruise segment includes Carnival Cruise Lines, Holland America Line, Princess and Seabourn. Our EAA cruise segment includes AIDA, Costa Cruises ("Costa"), Cunard, Ibero, P&O Cruises (Australia) and P&O Cruises (UK). These individual cruise brand operating segments have been aggregated into two reportable segments based on the similarity of their economic and other characteristics, including types of customers, regulatory environment, maintenance requirements, supporting systems and processes and products and services they provide. Our Cruise Support segment represents certain of our port and related facilities and other corporate-wide services that are provided for the benefit of our cruise brands. Our Tour and Other segment represented the hotel and transportation operations of Holland America Princess Alaska Tours and two of our ships that we chartered to an unaffiliated entity. In April 2013, we sold one of these chartered ships to the unaffiliated entity and recognized a $15 million gain as a reduction of Tour and Other operating expenses during the three months ended May 31, 2013.
Selected information for our Cruise and Tour and Other segments was as follows (in millions):

(a) A portion of the North America cruise brands’ segment revenues include revenues for the tour portion of a cruise when a
land tour package is sold along with a cruise by Holland America Line and Princess. These intersegment tour revenues,
which are included in our Tour and Other segment, are eliminated directly against the North America cruise brands’
segment revenues and operating expenses in the line “Intersegment elimination.”
