Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: January 2026

Alaska Cruise Hub participates in affiliate marketing programs. This means that when you click certain links on our site and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.

What This Means

Some links to excursion operators, gear retailers, and booking platforms are affiliate links. If you click one of these links and complete a booking or purchase, we receive a small percentage of the transaction value.

Affiliate links are used on excursion listing pages, gear recommendation pages, and some guide content. We do not use affiliate links in our port overview guides or FAQ content.

How This Affects Our Editorial Content

It doesn't. Our editorial recommendations are based on quality, value, and honest assessment — not commission rates. We recommend tours and operators we believe are genuinely good. If an affiliate program exists for a tour we don't recommend, we don't link to it. If a tour we highly recommend has no affiliate program, we still recommend it and link directly.

We do not accept payment from cruise lines, tour operators, or hotels in exchange for favorable coverage. All editorial content is produced independently.

Specific Programs

We may participate in affiliate programs including but not limited to: gear retailers (for Alaska cruise packing recommendations), excursion booking platforms, and travel insurance providers. Participation in a program does not mean we endorse every product or service offered by that company.

Group Shirts

Alaska Cruise Hub is operated by the same team behind Alaska Cruise Shirts. Links to alaskacruiseshirts.com are affiliated. We only recommend group shirts for groups that would actually benefit from them — they're genuinely useful for large parties navigating busy ports.
