Commentary

"These filings signal a significant move by major players in the cruise line industry and the hospitality space in general. These brands are clearly preparing their trademarks for the new era of the Metaverse," Mr. Kondoudis says. 

Mr. Kondoudis adds that "if granted, these trademark filings will ensure that no one else trademarks the same or similar names for related virtual goods and services."
