In a show of support for the travel advisor community, Carnival Corporation’s North American cruise brands plan to maintain current agent commission tiers through 2023. This applies to Carnival Cruise Line, Cunard Line, Holland America Line, Princess Cruises and Seabourn Cruise Line. 

The lines had previously committed to doing so through 2022, but the recent announcement extends it by a year. Advisors can now rest assured that their commission percentage will not change for the next two years.

We are maintaining commission tiers through 2023 as one more way to thank them for their support over this last year by providing peace of mind and confidence knowing their efforts will be compensated at the rate they have worked so hard to earn.

“The Carnival Corporation family of great cruise lines stands together in our commitment to support our travel advisor partners as our industry progresses to a full return to guest service,” said Arnold Donald, president and CEO of Carnival Corporation.
