CruiseHub, which bills itself as one of North America’s fastest-growing cruise booking platforms, has launched CruiseHub.ca — a Canadian-focused booking site offering cruise pricing in CAD, departures from Canadian and U.S. ports, and “real advisor support.”

CruiseHub.com launched in 2024 in the U.S., and says it has taken bookings representing 15,000 travellers through a hybrid model combining digital booking tools and one-on-one advisor assistance. 

“This new platform meets the growing demand for regionally adapted cruise services as travellers face increasing booking friction across the U.S.-Canada border,” the company said in a press release.

According to the 2024 Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) report, Canadian cruise bookings have surged nearly 40% since 2019, driven by millennials, solo travellers, and multi-generational families. 

CruiseHub.ca says that despite this growth, most cruise platforms remain U.S.-centric — offering USD-only pricing, limited departure port visibility, and minimal customer support during Canadian hours.

“This isn’t about replacing U.S. platforms — it’s about complementing them,” said Marcus Tomiuk, Cofounder & CEO of CruiseHub. “When trade tensions affect how people book and when they get support, having a regional solution benefits everyone.”

CruiseHub.ca offers sailings from all major cruise lines, including MSC Cruises, Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Norwegian and Celebrity.
