Do I need to buy a ticket for my dog?
No, dogs travel free of charge.
Designated Pet Areas
On most of our ships pets are allowed access to all outside passenger areas. Many of our larger ships have internal pet areas with seating provided for owners. When inside, passengers travelling with pets should remain in these areas. On some ships pets are not permitted inside.
It is CalMac's aim to make journeys as safe and comfortable as possible for all our passengers. Please take due care and show consideration for everyone on board.
Support Dogs
Support dogs are allowed access to all passenger areas.
For more information download the official Pet Policy and our pet leaflet, email enquiries@calmac.co.uk, or speak with any member of staff or crew.
Special Arrangements
Where special arrangements would be helpful to owners i.e. storing a pet in an RSPCA approved pet carrier or similar apparatus, provided by the owner, a location may be identified on the ship by prior arrangement with the port of departure. Owners should contact the port of departure at least seven days in advance of travel.
