We're proud members of CLIA

At Duckling Cruises, we believe booking a cruise should be as enjoyable and stress-free as the journey itself. That’s why we’re proud members of CLIA UK & Ireland (Cruise Lines International Association) — the world’s largest cruise industry trade association.

What is CLIA

CLIA represents over 95% of global ocean cruise capacity and brings together cruise lines, travel agents, destinations, and suppliers to support and grow the cruise industry.

As a CLIA-accredited agency, we’re part of a trusted global network of cruise professionals committed to excellence, insight, and integrity in cruise travel.

What it Means for You

When you book with a CLIA member like us, you benefit from:

  • Expert Knowledge
    Our team undergoes continual training through CLIA’s industry-recognised programmes — ensuring we offer up-to-date advice on cruise lines, ships, destinations, and onboard experiences.
  • Unbiased, Personalised Recommendations
    We work closely with CLIA-affiliated cruise lines and suppliers but are not tied to any one cruise line. This means our advice is always tailored to your needs and preferences, ensuring you get the right cruises that’s truly right for you, not just what’s easiet to sell.
  • Confidence and Trust
    As part of CLIA, we follow the highest industry standards in professionalism, ethics, and service. You can trust us to put your holiday first, every time.
  • A Better Cruise Planning Experience
    Whether you’re a first-time cruiser or a seasoned traveller, we guide you every step of the way, from choosing the right ship to recommending pre and post cruise experiences.
