Our mission
Planning a cruise shouldn't mean spending hours across a dozen browser tabs — the cruise line's FAQ, Reddit threads, packing blogs, budget spreadsheets, and destination guides. None of it talks to each other.
Sailbud fixes that. We built a single free toolkit that consolidates everything a cruiser needs — item rules by cruise line, a real budget calculator, kids activity guides, dining information, health and insurance advice, and destination rules — all in one place.
What we offer — free
🔍 Item Checker
28+ items verified across 9 cruise lines. Know what you can bring before you pack.

Real cost estimates by cruise line. Gratuities, drink packages, Wi-Fi, excursions — calculated honestly.
🧒 Kids Activity Guide
Age-by-age breakdown of what every major cruise line offers for children and teens.
🏥 Health & Insurance Guide
What medications to pack, what to do if you get sick onboard, and exactly what cruise insurance you need.
🍽 Dining Guide
Specialty restaurants, dress codes, and must-try foods at every major cruise destination.
