Ostebo Steps Down from CLIA President and CEO Role

The Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) today announced that Thomas P. Ostebo who recently joined CLIA as President and CEO has stepped down from the position immediately, due to personal reasons, according to the Association.

Ostebo assumed the role on July 6, 2015.

In the interim, Cindy D’Aoust, Executive Vice President of Membership and Operations, will assume the role of acting CEO and oversee the management of global operations and the CLIA leadership teams until CLIA appoints a permanent CEO.

“CLIA’s current leadership team is doing an outstanding job supporting our membership and driving the vision of the organization globally, even during this time of transition,” said Global CLIA Chairman Adam M. Goldstein, President and COO of Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. “While it is unfortunate that Tom is departing CLIA, his desire to put his family first is a testament to his character, and we wish him the best in all his future endeavors.”
