Affiliate disclosure

Last updated: 2026-06-12

Plain-language summary

Some outbound links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and complete a qualifying action — typically a purchase or sign-up — we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you. The price you pay is the same as if you had reached the merchant directly.

You are never obligated to use our links, and the calculator's trip-readiness verdict is computed from official EU rules and versioned datasets only — it is never influenced by any commercial relationship.

Amazon Associates

As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. The "pre-trip gear" links on the home page point to Amazon search results and carry our Associates tag. Amazon may set purchase-attribution cookies on its own domain after you click; see our cookie policy.

Other partner programmes

From time to time the "Related travel tools" panel may list partners such as travel-insurance or eSIM providers. Those links are clearly tagged "affiliate" next to the link text and only appear when an active partnership exists.
