An independent agency built around one product: cruising.

Our story

XTC Search Flights started as a small desk of former cruise line reservation agents who believed travelers deserved a clearer way to compare sailings side by side. What began as a single booking line has grown into a dedicated cruise division serving guests across North America, working with the world’s major cruise lines to source cabins, group allotments and promotional fares.

We are a registered travel agency and an authorized reseller for the cruise lines we work with. We are not owned by, and are not a subsidiary of, any single cruise line, which lets our specialists recommend the sailing that actually fits your trip rather than steering you toward one brand.

What we do

• Search and compare live fares across major cruise lines and sailing dates
• Hold negotiated group and promotional rates not always shown on public sites
• Handle cabin selection, dining preferences and onboard add-ons
• Manage date changes, cancellations and refund requests on your behalf
• Coordinate pre- and post-cruise hotel stays and transfers

How we’re paid

We earn a commission from cruise lines on completed bookings, and in some cases charge a disclosed service fee for booking, date-change or cancellation assistance. Any service fee is quoted to you before it is charged. Full detail is available in our Terms of Service and Refund & Cancellation Policy.

Our commitment

We publish our cancellation terms, service fees and privacy practices in plain language, and our specialists confirm cabin category, fare rules and total price with you verbally before any payment is taken.
