More data you can use

Reuse
Using our figures
- Report figures and CSV files are CC BY 4.0: use, quote and chart them freely.
- Credit “CruiseShipTracking.com” and link to the report or page you used.
- Our counts cover the ships we track. They are not official port statistics; say so if the distinction matters to your story.
- Each issue is frozen when it is published and never recomputed. A correction is added to the report with its date, and subscribers who got a corrected figure by email are told.
- The site is independent and paid for by ads and affiliate links. No cruise line or port sees or approves these figures.
