Affiliate disclosure

Effective July 13, 2026

The short version

Beyond The Lobby may use affiliate links. If you click one of those links and complete a qualifying booking or purchase, the publication may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.

How affiliate links are identified

Whenever a recommendation contains an affiliate link, a clear disclosure will appear close to that recommendation or before the first affiliate link in the article. A disclosure on this page does not replace the disclosure readers should see alongside an endorsement.

Editorial independence

Affiliate relationships do not determine ratings, conclusions, or which experiences are recommended. Reviews are based on firsthand experiences and include relevant weaknesses, disappointing details, and situations where an upgrade is not worth paying for.

Hosted and sponsored experiences

If a hotel, cruise line, restaurant, tourism organization, or other company provides payment, complimentary access, a discounted stay, products, or another material benefit, that relationship will be disclosed clearly in the related article and social content.

Prices and availability

Travel prices, benefits, schedules, and availability can change after publication. Readers should confirm the current terms directly with the travel provider before booking.

Questions

Questions about a partnership or disclosure can be sent to beyondthelobbytravel@gmail.com or through the contact options on the collaboration page.
