10 journey tickets at a glance

You can purchase 10-journey tickets for all our Turn Up and Go routes online. These tickets are issued in digital form via email and can be accessed through your online account. If you don’t have an account, you will need to create one to purchase 10-journey tickets. Your account also allows you to keep track of how many journeys you have used and how many you have left – as well as accessing your ticket QR code for scanning.

10-journey tickets are also available to purchase as paper tickets from a port or vessel, but again you must have an account with us to do so.

Single tickets at a glance

Single tickets for Turn Up and Go routes are valid for one single journey, in one direction, on the specific route you have chosen. When you pre-purchase a single ticket online for a Turn Up and Go route, you'll be asked to select a departure date, but you can use the single ticket at any time, on any sailing, during the timetable season for which you've purchased it - either winter or summer. Our timetable pages advise the date periods for each winter/summer season.

Return tickets at a glance

Return tickets for Turn Up and Go routes are valid for one return journey, on the specific route you have chosen. When you pre-purchase a return ticket online for a Turn Up and Go route, you'll be asked to select outward and return departure dates, but you can use the return ticket at any time, on any sailing, during the timetable season for which you've purchased it - either winter or summer. Our timetable pages advise the date periods for each winter/summer season.

Important: You cannot purchase 10-journey tickets for concessions, blue badge vehicles, trailers, caravans/motorhomes, pets, or bikes and kayaks.

Ticket validity

It’s important to remember that these tickets are valid until the end of the timetable period during which they were purchased, either winter or summer. They cannot be used outside the timetable period you have bought them for, and they are non-refundable.
