CabinRate.com ("CabinRate", "we", "us") is operated by CabinRate. This page explains how we make money and what that means for you as a visitor.

We earn commission on bookings

CabinRate is a free-to-use cruise comparison and search tool. We do not charge visitors to use the site. Instead, we earn a commission when you click through to a cruise booking partner or a tour provider from our site and complete a qualifying booking or enquiry.

These commissions are paid to us by the partner businesses, at no additional cost to you. The price you see and pay is the same whether you book through CabinRate or go direct.

Our affiliate networks and partners

We currently work with the following affiliate partners:

• CruiseNation, via the Awin network — every cruise “view fares” or “browse sailings” link on CabinRate goes to CruiseNation through Awin, whichever cruise line it relates to.
• GetYourGuide — direct partner programme, covering independently-booked tours and activities.

Commission structures vary by partner and may include a percentage of booking value or a fixed fee per booking. If we add further partners, this page will be updated.

This does not affect our recommendations

Our true-cost figures, inclusiveness grades, and itinerary scores are calculated using a fixed, published methodology. They are not influenced by which partner pays the highest commission, and commission rates play no role in how cruises are ranked, compared, or scored — including in head-to-head comparisons. See our About & Methodology page for full details.

Third-party links

When you click a booking or tour link, you will leave CabinRate.com and be directed to the partner's website. We are not responsible for the content, pricing accuracy, availability, or customer service of third-party sites. Please review their own terms, privacy policy, and booking conditions before completing a purchase.
