About the awards

Cruise Awards logo 2025-01

The Signature Luxury Travel & Style’s Luxury Cruise Awards are a compendium of the world’s finest ocean, river, expedition, family and tall-ship cruising. Our seventh annual awards celebrate the top cruise lines, ships and operators in the industry – all of which are thriving.

Our annual Luxury Cruise Awards are judged by a panel of 19 leading luxury cruise experts and travel advisors who rate major cruise lines across 14 key categories, including suites, service, dining, wellness, itineraries and shore excursions. Each cruise line is awarded points that are tallied to determine the overall winners. From on-board and on-shore services to facilities and experiences, our winners and finalists set the standard for the future of cruising.
