See where every American Cruise Lines ship is right now, live from her AIS transponder. American Cruise Lines sails US rivers and coastlines — the Mississippi, the Columbia and Snake, Puget Sound and New England — so its ships track close to shore.
American Cruise Lines is the fleet most likely to be somewhere unexpected inland. Its paddlewheelers work the Mississippi, Ohio and Tennessee; the coastal ships run Puget Sound, Alaska's Inside Passage, New England and the Chesapeake; and the Columbia and Snake River ships lock through dams in Washington and Oregon. Because these are all US inland and coastal waters, AIS coverage is excellent — positions here are about as fresh as cruise tracking gets.
Every American Cruise Lines ship we track, with her latest AIS report. Ship names link to deck plans, staterooms and current sailings; ports link to our cruise port guide for that harbor.

Find her in the fleet table on this page — every American Cruise Lines ship we track is listed with her current status, and the map above plots them all live. Each ship also links to her own page, which carries her position, deck plans and current sailings.
Positions come from each ship's own AIS transponder. Near the coast they arrive every few minutes; mid-ocean they relay by satellite and can be a few hours old. Every row on this page states how fresh its last report is, so you are never guessing.
