Our data and editorial policy

Where sailing information comes from

We collect published sailing information from operator and aggregator sources and organize it by departure, destination, ship and dates. Automated checks screen records for public discovery. A listing is evidence of a published sailing, not a promise of bookable cabins, a complete operator schedule or a personal inspection of the ship.

How to read fares and availability

Source-checked prices have a recorded observation date. Some displayed fares or cabin categories are estimates; check the label on the sailing page. Our route comparison tables display numeric fares only when the sailing is marked available, the lead fare is not estimated, a source link exists and the fare was checked within 14 days. Older or incomplete evidence is labelled instead of presented as a current verified fare.

Stored comparison fares use USD as their base; displayed amounts are per person and follow your selected currency. Compare cabin category, occupancy, currency and included taxes, fees, gratuities and extras with the operator. Neither a recorded price nor an availability label guarantees live inventory.

What route statistics mean

Counts, departure months and voyage lengths describe the listed catalogue selection. They are not historical seasonality studies or predictions of weather. Port-call lists can be incomplete, so we do not derive sea-day counts from the number of stops. A Panama visit does not itself confirm a canal transit.

How planning guides are prepared

Port guides link to port authorities, terminal operators, airports, transport authorities or official tourism information. Crossing guides cite cruise-line guidance. Each guide shows when its sources were checked. That date applies to the guide, not every sailing or fare on the page. These are researched planning summaries; we do not claim firsthand visits or independent human expert review unless identified explicitly.

Archived sailings and updates

Sailings remain visible as historical itinerary references after departure, or when removed from the current snapshot. Archived pages are labelled and do not offer current booking fares. Data check dates and page modification dates describe different events; rebuilding the site alone is not a fare check.

Report a correction

Send the page URL, the field that appears wrong and a link to the operator or authority source through our contact page. Confirm final boarding, travel and booking conditions directly with the operator while a correction is being checked.
