Carnival President Duffy to Skydive for Hurricane Relief

Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line, will skydive on October 19 to raise $50,000 for hurricane relief efforts through the Gary Sinise Foundation. This event coincides with a cruise chartered by the Special Forces Legacy Initiatives aboard the Carnival Paradise, which will host special forces alumni and their families for a five-day reunion at sea. Duffy will perform a tandem jump with the Round Canopy Parachute Team from the 'Tico Belle,' a WWII C-47 aircraft that participated in the Normandy invasion. The Gary Sinise Foundation is actively supporting first responders and military personnel aiding communities affected by Hurricane Helene. Duffy emphasized the importance of demonstrating Carnival's commitment to military service members, stating, "I'm always ready to jump at the chance to prove it!" Gary Sinise and his band will also perform during the embarkation.
