What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: The Japan Times.
Kenji MoonfieldJapan's first Disney cruise ship will be called Disney Imagination, it starts service in spring of twenty twenty-nine, and reservations open about six months before launch.
Kenji MoonfieldWith us via satellite is Desmond Achterberg, a senior partner at Harbor and Gangway Strategies, who lobbies on this story.
Kenji MoonfieldDesmond, who do you represent here?
Desmond AchterbergI speak for everyone on the dock, Kenji.
Desmond AchterbergFamilies who want the ship, and the small group of harbor neighbors who would like it to be a lighthouse instead.
Kenji MoonfieldThose are opposite sides. Do you speak for both?
Desmond AchterbergI speak for everyone on the dock, and that includes the committee against the ship, and the subcommittee against the committee, which meets Thursdays and is mostly me.
Kenji MoonfieldMostly you.
Desmond AchterbergI speak for everyone on the dock. Including the dock, which is nervous, and has retained me, and has also retained the people suing it.
Desmond AchterbergI have a laminated deck plan, Kenji. It's very persuasive.
Kenji MoonfieldThe ship doesn't exist until twenty twenty-nine, and you've already billed both sides for it. Who gets the deck plan?
Desmond AchterbergBoth. I just flip it over depending on who I'm talking to.
