Focusing on social media platform X, the author conducted a content analysis of the top three cruise lines' strategies using NVivo software and assessed public sentiment and emotions through comments using KNIME and R software. The findings identify the most effective strategies for generating positive public sentiment and favourable emotions, contributing to faster business recovery. The book enhances Situational Crisis Communication Theory and offers practical guidance for managers to improve crisis resilience in the face of crises of such magnitude and duration. This work uniquely combines corporate and consumer perspectives to assess the effectiveness of crisis communication.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGinevra Testa completed her PhD at the Italian Centre of Excellence on Logistics, Transport, and Infrastructure (CIELI) at the University of Genoa, where she is now a Research Fellow.
