Turn Up and Go

Turn Up and Go

A number of our short or frequent services are Turn Up and Go routes. You can pre-purchase travel for these routes *online.  

Buy Tickets

When you pre-purchase a ticket for a Turn up and Go route, 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.

*If you have purchased tickets online as a group or for any number of travel companions, for use on any of our Turn Up and Go routes, the full party must travel on the same sailing. This applies to both legs of your journey. If you are unsure if all members of your group are travelling together, please complete separate transactions online. Please note once any QR code which is associated with your booking is scanned, this will check in everyone in your group and cannot be scanned again until your return journey.  

We encourage you to plan ahead as your first choice of sailing may not always be available and wait times may be extended. 

Please check the service status of your route before you travel
