No loan to a franchisee here has finished yet
Every loan to a Cruise Planners franchisee is either still running or its outcome was never published, so there is nothing to compare. See the peers anyway →
There is more in Cruise Planners’s filing
What it costs to open is free, above. Access opens what the franchisor disclosed about earning it back — here and on every other brand we have read:
- What Item 19 states its outlets earn, and on how many of them
- Every ongoing fee, not just the royalty — priced in dollars a year
- How many franchisees left, were terminated, or sold up
- Territory, renewal, non-compete and dispute terms
- What in the record is worth asking about, and why
- A five-year projection you can put your own rent, wages and borrowing into
One price opens all of it, on every brand we have read. Once opened it stays open.
The loan record stays free — how many of this brand’s franchisees borrowed from a bank to buy in, and how many never paid it back. That is a public government record and we do not charge for it. What you pay for is only what we read out of the franchisor’s own disclosure document.
Every figure, year over year2026 against 2026, all seven lines
Filed in MN and WI respectively. A franchisor may file different terms in different states, so the registries are named rather than blended. The three headline figures above carry their own movement; this is the rest.
