Cruiseline Operators and the Cruise Ships

This is a pretty good list of current Cruiseline Operators and the Cruise Ships they own or operate. The cruiseline business incestuous. Many ships operate or have operated under many names, many ships are owned by one company and subleased or operated by two companies.   Sometimes it can be confusing. Elite Cruises and Travel makes your traveling a breeze.

Contact Us to book any of the ships or cruiselines listed at 877-294-4053

If you would like us to locate a ship on which you have cruised in the past, so you may once again cruise on it, let us know.  Many ships have had many names.    We have grouped together divisions of some of the largest operators such as Carnival Cruises and Royal Caribbean.
