Story of Frank Del Rio

Story of Frank Del Rio

Out of Cuba, With a Suitcase

By FRANK DEL RIO
Published: June 11, 2011

Frank Del Rio

My family emigrated from Cuba when I was almost 7, after the failed Bay of Pigs mission. We had a nice life in Cuba. My father worked for the Coca-Cola Company, and we’d spend weekends at our beach house. But my parents didn’t support Fidel Castro and wanted safe passage out of the country at that point.

We escaped to Jamaica on Aug. 22, 1961, then flew to Miami and were processed at the Freedom Tower. After that, we moved to New Britain, Conn., and stayed with my uncle. Each of us had taken just one suitcase from Cuba because my parents thought Castro couldn’t possibly stay in power long. But we stayed in Connecticut for nine years.

We left for Miami just before I started 10th grade, and I knew no one. The first day, I walked into Algebra II and saw two empty seats, one next to a girl and the other next to a guy. I sat next to the girl, and by Thursday of that week, I knew that she had also emigrated from Cuba, and she did her homework every night, and let me copy it every morning. Her name was Marcia, and I married her after our freshman year in college. We’re still married and have two children.

I attended the University of Florida for a degree in accounting. My father was an accountant, and I thought that having that background would give me a leg up in business. I was a competitive runner, but I knew that I wouldn’t be able to run well and be happily married and still get straight A’s. Something had to give, so I gave up running.

In 1977, I started working at what was then Peat, Marwick, Mitchell & Company and stayed for three years. Then I worked for Certified Vacations, which operated Delta Dream Vacations. I was executive vice president for sales and marketing when I left in 1993. I learned how to run a business there.

Next, I joined Renaissance Cruises as senior vice president and chief financial officer, then became co-C.E.O. Renaissance was a luxury line that went bankrupt when the travel business plummeted after 9/11. The company and I had parted ways, however, before the attacks.

In 2002, I founded Oceania Cruises with a group of investors. We bought three ships that had belonged to Renaissance, and in 2007 sold a majority stake to a private equity firm. In 2008, we acquired Regent Seven Seas Cruises. The brands compete against each other, but we’ve achieved synergies and each company has learned from the other. Both are now under Prestige, the parent company.

I recall sitting around the table when we were starting Oceania, trying to come up with something different to offer. We had only $14 million in capital, a drop in the bucket for a cruise line. We had to find a business plan that improved our odds. Itineraries are similar for many cruise lines, so we focused on cuisine and teamed up with the chef Jacques Pépin.

I learned two lessons from the Renaissance bankruptcy. One is not to discount the importance of travel agents. Every business organization that has tried to marginalize them has paid a price. Many people thought that the Internet would eliminate all brick-and-mortar businesses, and travel agents were a symbol for them at that time. But travel agencies have evolved, and cruises are a complex product. Our travel-agent accounts are our lifeline.

The second lesson is, innovate or evaporate. But it’s just as bad to innovate too much as it is to do too little. As with anything, you need balance.

I’ve also learned that there’s no substitute for honesty. If you’re honest during good times and bad, people may disagree with you, but they’ll always trust you. I’d rather have someone’s trust than just about anything else.

 

As told to Patricia R. Olsen.

    Perhaps the evening begins with the octopus carpaccio with Champagne vinaigrette or the artichoke and parmesan cheese timbale with black truffle sauce.

    Luscious aromas waft from the gleaming show rotisserie, where chicken, duck, pork, beef and veal roasts slowly turn. Each dish is a classic, ingeniously reinterpreted by Master Chef Pépin. Rotisserie-roasted chicken falls off the bone, bursting with flavor, while his sea bass filet pairs exquisitely with beurre blanc.

La Reserve by Wine Spectator

Perfect Pairings

The most inspired achievements are born of legendary partnerships, and at Oceania Cruises we are proud of our brilliant union with Wine Spectator, the foremost magazine for wine connoisseurs, and our exceptional relationship with France’s premier Champagne house, Moët & Chandon. Along with these illustrious partners, we are pleased to present a variety of differing but equally extraordinary pairing dinners. Developed with Moët & Chandon’s Executive Chef Marco Fadiga, the six-course Dom Pérignon Experience is a spirited Champagne pairing dinner blending playful Dom Pérignon vintages and refreshing gastronomic surprises such as Sakura Tea “Geisha Flower” Ice Cream and Lemon Caviar. The seven-course La Cuisine Bourgeoise wine pairing dinner celebrates the rituals of the table and links masterfully curated wine selections with dishes such as Filet de Boeuf Rôti Richelieu, one of many recipes Oceania Cruises’ Master Chef and Executive Culinary Director Jacques Pépin has enjoyed since his childhood. Coupled with wine seminars and vintage tastings, La Reserve by Wine Spectator is an unabashedly glorious celebration of the pleasures of the palate.

The Dom Pérignon Experience

Champagne defines the most jubilant moments of our lives and in a magnificent stroke of brilliance, we have partnered with France’s esteemed Moët & Chandon to create the Dom Pérignon Experience at La Reserve by Wine Spectator, an exuberant six-course gustatory indulgence that pairs each course with a special Dom Pérignon vintage. Champagne is effortlessly matched with dishes which are thoughtfully crafted to bring out the nuances of the grapes and the ratio of the blend, playing off every aspect from subtle, effervescent nose to lively, satisfying finish. From Brittany Blue Lobster in Yellow Curry Broth with Coco Foam to Sashimi-Style Seared Wagyu Beef with Sautéed Arugula, Blood Orange-Soya Jus and Caviar Perlita, each beguiling bite is a celebration of the finer things in life. While the Dom Pérignon Experience is the perfect complement to any joyous occasion, it transcends even this lofty role. In true French spirit, it becomes the culinary manifestation of joie de vivre.

Open for dinner on board Marina & Riviera only. Reservations required. Wine or Champagne experience surcharge applies.

The Finest Cuisine at Sea™

Sailing around the globe offers the chance to sample some of the finest cuisine in the world at the very best shoreside restaurants. Sailing around the globe with Oceania Cruises means you will enjoy equally exquisite cuisine on board the ship. Inspired by the legendary Master Chef Jacques Pépin, their Executive Culinary Director, the talented chefs on board Insignia create culinary masterpieces. From Continental classics at the Grand Dining Room to authentic Italian cuisine at Toscana to perfectly prepared steaks and seafood at Polo Grill, the options are nearly endless. Of course, a voyage of this scale must take full advantage of the opportunity to celebrate world cuisines, so an array of special events will highlight authentic local fare. Enjoy the buffet at Terrace Café featuring delicious Vietnamese specialties while cruising the South China Sea, or a deck party which takes on an Australian flair as you sail the Tasman Sea. Regardless of the region, culinary delights await you. VIEW FINE DINING

President & CEO

There simply is no replacement for global adventures that span the four corners of the world, immerse you in unforgettable cultural experiences and move you with inspiring humanity at every turn. It’s my unique pleasure to invite you to discover our new 180-day global circumnavigation that traverses three oceans to explore more than 90 ports of call on four continents. Welcome to Around the World 2023.

Insignia opens this epic journey with a remarkable exploration of South America, from mist-shrouded Machu Picchu to the plunging Chilean Fjords to the sun-drenched beaches of Brazil. In between, you’ll be treated to an Oceania Cruises world voyage first – cruising Antarctica’s pristine glacial bays and islands. You’ll also traverse the Indian Ocean and have the chance to enjoy memorable encounters in countries such as Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam and China. The unique opportunity to delve more deeply into Japan comes to life with nine fascinating ports of call. This roving masterpiece will be crowned by a noteworthy Bering Sea crossing, bringing you the breadth of Alaska from the Aleutian Islands to the Inside Passage. Each day’s adventures will be bookended with the warmth, camaraderie, and the luxe residential sanctuary of Insignia, your welcoming home at sea.

Explore Atlas Ocean Voyages World Navigation

World Navigator was conceived with the sensibilities of an explorer – one who believes the world is best experienced up close, while still leaving the destination untouched. Launching in 2021, World Navigator realizes the possibilities of environmental stewardship with the latest hybrid power management and propulsion system, maximizing fuel efficiency and consuming as low as one-fifth the fuel compared to conventional cruise-ship systems. Its alternate hydro-jet propulsion system helps the ship quietly cruise up to five knots without disturbing marine wildlife for incomparable up-close encounters.This is how you can best enjoy the world and protect it for others. And as the expedition-style World Navigator quietly nestles into the amazing, remote and rugged locations on your itinerary, you’ll wonder why anyone would roam any other way.
