CNB Tourism Abbreviation

Child No Bed

In the tourism industry, particularly in the context of hotel bookings and travel packages, CNB commonly stands for "Child No Bed."

This term is used to describe a booking where a child (usually below a certain age, like 6 or 12, depending on the hotel or tour operator's policy) is staying in the room with adults but does not require a separate bed. This usually means the child will share a bed with their parents or guardians, or sleep in an existing sofa bed or cot provided by the hotel at no extra charge (or a minimal charge for the cot). Hotels and resorts often have specific policies for children's accommodation, and "CNB" allows them to track occupancy without allocating an additional bed, impacting the room rate or capacity. It's a common way to denote flexible sleeping arrangements for families traveling together.
