Affiliate disclosure
Skidaw is an independent travel platform. We earn revenue through affiliate partnerships with travel companies. This page explains how this works and how it affects our content — or rather, how it doesn't.
How Affiliate Links Work
When you click a link to a hotel booking site (such as Booking.com) and make a reservation, Skidaw receives a small commission from the booking site. This costs you nothing extra — the hotel price remains exactly the same whether you book through Skidaw or directly.
Our Affiliate Partners
- Booking.com — Hotel and accommodation bookings via the CJ Affiliate network
We partner with carefully selected companies that we trust and use ourselves.
Editorial Independence
Our destination guides, hotel tips, and travel articles are written by our editorial team based on independent research, travel experience, and data analysis. Affiliate partnerships do not influence:
- Which destinations or hotels we recommend
- The order of search results in our planner
- The scores and ratings our AI assigns
- The content of our travel guides and blog articles
How We Mark Affiliate Links
Articles containing affiliate links display a disclosure message at the top of the page. Buttons that lead to an external booking site are clearly labeled (e.g., "Search on Booking.com" or "View Hotels").
External Sites
When you leave our site via an affiliate link, you go to the partner's website (e.g., Booking.com). These partners provide their own listings, availability, prices, and policies. Skidaw does not control and is not responsible for content, pricing, or transactions on external sites.
FTC Disclosure
In accordance with FTC guidelines and European consumer transparency regulations: Skidaw receives compensation for referrals to products and services mentioned on this site. This compensation may impact how and where products appear on this site, but does not influence our editorial reviews or recommendations.
