About Cruise News

Cruise News is an independent publication that covers the cruise industry: the ships, the lines, the ports, and the business behind them. We report what cruisers and people working in the industry need to know, and we keep it short.

What we do

Every weekday we publish brief, reported updates on the stories that move the industry: new ships and itineraries, deployment and port developments, pricing and policy changes, and the decisions shaping major lines like Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Norwegian, MSC, Princess, Disney, and Celebrity. It goes out as a free morning briefing you can read in about five minutes.

What we cover

• Breaking cruise industry news and ship announcements
• Port and destination developments
• Deals, pricing changes, and booking insights
• Analysis of the trends and business decisions behind the industry

How we're funded

Cruise News is funded by reader memberships and advertising. Memberships keep our reporting independent and unlock the full archive and members-only analysis. Advertising keeps the daily briefing free for everyone. We label ads clearly and keep them separate from our editorial coverage.
