Affiliate Disclosure
How affiliate relationships work on this site.
Transparency matters.
Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click a link and make a booking or purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.
Effective Date: 01/01/2026 · Last Updated: 12/31/2025
Our mission remains unchanged
We help travelers book smarter by explaining prices, timing, and tradeoffs.
Affiliate relationships do not override this mission and do not influence how opportunities are evaluated or explained.
What an affiliate link means
An affiliate link is a special tracking link that lets a supplier or partner know that a booking originated from this site.
- You typically pay the same price whether you use an affiliate link or not
- The commission is generally paid by the supplier, not by you
- Affiliate links help support our research and editorial work
What affiliate relationships do not affect
Affiliate relationships do not determine:
- What opportunities we publish
- How we describe pricing or value
- Whether we disclose limitations, fees, or downsides
- Whether we recommend booking now, waiting, or skipping an offer
We do not publish content solely because it earns a commission.
Editorial independence
- All content is written by our editorial team
- We do not accept supplier-written or supplier-controlled copy
- We do not offer paid placement or guaranteed coverage
- Commission size does not determine inclusion
- We may advise readers not to book
If an opportunity cannot be explained clearly and honestly, we don’t publish it — regardless of affiliate status.
Tradeoffs and transparency
When an affiliate opportunity is published, we may clearly disclose:
- What’s included and what’s not
- Restrictions or limitations
- Situations where the offer may not be a good fit
- Alternatives or reasons to wait
Why we use affiliate links
Affiliate revenue allows us to:
- Invest time in researching and explaining opportunities
- Publish fewer, higher-quality recommendations
- Maintain independence from supplier marketing pressure
- Keep access to our content free for readers
Our commitment to readers
We aim to earn trust by:
- Explaining context, not just promoting offers
- Being upfront about how we make money
- Disclosing affiliate relationships clearly and prominently
- Prioritizing long-term credibility over short-term revenue
One simple rule
If earning a commission would require us to withhold information or soften tradeoffs, we don’t do it.
