What routes can I make a reservation for?

It's now even easier to make a reservation. You can pre-purchase tickets for all routes online in advance of travel, at any time.

You can also purchase tickets via telephone and at port offices.  

We have two types of routes - Bookable and Turn up and Go

On our Bookable routes, you can buy your ticket in advance of travel - and in so doing, you will be reserving space(s) on a particular sailing.

On our Turn up and Go routes, you'll be purchasing an 'open' ticket for a chosen departure date, valid for the season in which you've purchased it, but it won't have a specific sailing time.
