Terms of Use
These terms apply when you use Cruise Atlas. Please read them before using the site.
Effective: October 6, 2026 · Last revised: October 9, 2026
1.About this site
This site is an information guide for exploring cruise routes, ships, and ports around the world with maps and cards.
This site does not handle cruise reservations, applications, or payments. Please make reservations through the cruise company's official site or a travel agency.
2.How published information is treated
Published routes, departure months, ports, prices, ship specifications, and similar information are reference information compiled from cruise companies' official sites and other public information. Each page identifies its sources and last checked date.
Published information consists of facts made public by each company, organized by this site in its own words. We do not reproduce text, photos, or table layouts from official sites. A link to a source does not mean that the company is affiliated with or endorses this site.
Schedules, ports, prices, and availability may change for reasons including each company's circumstances and exchange rates. We do not guarantee that a booking can be made as published, or that prices or availability will remain as shown. Prices are reference ranges. JPY amounts shown on the Japanese pages are estimates based on a fixed exchange rate; the English pages show amounts in their original currency (see prices).
Before booking or making a decision, always check the latest information with the cruise company's official site or a travel agency. If information on this site differs from official information, the official information prevails.
3.Corrections and removal
If you find an error or outdated information, or if you hold rights in published material and want it removed or corrected, please contact info@invest-aitech.com. We will look into the matter, correct any errors, and remove or correct material once we confirm that it infringes someone's rights.
Published information is reviewed approximately once a month.
4.Links to external sites
This site contains links to cruise companies, travel agencies, and sources. The content, services, and handling of personal information at linked sites are governed by their operators' terms and policies.
Any contract for a reservation or purchase made through a linked site is between you and the operator of that linked site.
5.Copyright and materials
Copyright in this site's text and page structure belongs to the operator. Except for quotation and other uses permitted by law, unauthorized reproduction or redistribution is not allowed.
The conditions for using published data and text are set out in “6. Use of published data and text”.
Third-party materials such as port photos are published under the licenses specified by their respective rights holders, with the photographer and license shown for each photo. If you use those materials, follow the applicable license.
Trademarks such as cruise company and ship names belong to their respective rights holders.
6.Use of published data and text

Text in our own words (may be quoted or summarized with credit) Introductions and explanations that this site wrote in its own words (such as descriptions of ships, itineraries and ports) may be quoted or summarized if you credit the source (“Cruise Atlas” and the page URL). If you would like to republish a full text or copy a substantial amount, please contact us first.
Text based on Wikipedia (CC BY-SA 4.0) Text based on Wikipedia articles (such as introductions to ports) may be used under CC BY-SA 4.0. Links to the original articles are listed in the sources section of each page. When you reuse this text, keep the article title, the link and the CC BY-SA 4.0 notice, and publish it under the same terms (CC BY-SA 4.0).

- Covered by CC BY 4.0: the “Facts and figures” above (the facts and figures this site collects and organizes, including the files under /data and the figures shown on the pages).
- Not covered by CC BY 4.0: “Text in our own words” (which may be quoted or summarized with credit), “Text based on Wikipedia” (which follows CC BY-SA 4.0), third-party photos, maps and logos, trademarks such as cruise line and ship names, and any rights held by the official websites and other sources the information is based on.
When you use material under CC BY 4.0, credit “Cruise Atlas” and the page URL, name the license (CC BY 4.0), and indicate whether you made any changes, as CC BY 4.0 requires.
Not covered: materials such as photos, maps and logos (photos show the photographer and the license), and the rights in the official websites and other sources the data is based on (these belong to their respective rights holders). Data such as schedules and prices that a cruise line protects under its own terms of use is also outside the CC BY 4.0 permission given by this site.

7.Prohibited conduct
When using this site, you must not:
- violate any law or engage in conduct that could lead to a crime;
- infringe the copyright, trademark, privacy, or other rights or interests of this site, the operator, or any third party;
- gain unauthorized access to this site's servers or networks, or otherwise interfere with the operation of this site;
- collect information automatically in a way that places an excessive load on our servers, such as by sending a large number of requests in a short time (for published data, please use the files under /data);
- impersonate the operator or any other person or organization, or falsely suggest that you are affiliated with this site; or
- use content from this site in breach of the conditions of use set out in these terms.
If we find any such conduct, we may take necessary measures, such as restricting access.
8.Limitation of liability
This site is a free reference service. We strive for accuracy, completeness, and timeliness, but we do not guarantee them.
The operator is not liable for any damage arising from your use of, or inability to use, this site, except where the damage is caused by the operator's intent or gross negligence.
However, if you are a consumer as defined in Japan's Consumer Contract Act and damage is caused by the operator's negligence (other than gross negligence), the operator will compensate you for damage that would ordinarily arise, but not for damage arising from special circumstances. Nothing in this section limits any liability of the operator that cannot be limited by law.
We may change, suspend, or discontinue all or part of this site without notice. Linked sites, and any contracts you make through them, are governed by their operators' terms, as described in “Links to external sites.”
9.Changes to these terms
We may change these terms to reflect changes in law or in the service, or for other reasons. When we do, we will post the revised terms and the revision date on this page, and the revised terms will apply from that date. For significant changes that are unfavorable to users, we will try to announce them on this site before the revision date.
If you use this site on or after the revision date, the revised terms apply.
10.Governing law, jurisdiction, and language
These terms are governed by the laws of Japan.
Any dispute between the operator and a user relating to this site that goes to court, the Tokyo District Court shall have exclusive jurisdiction as the court of first instance.
These terms are written in Japanese, and this English version is provided for reference. If the two differ, the Japanese version prevails. Nothing in this section limits any rights you have under the laws that apply to you.
