The ferry is the same mode of transport as any other. To use the ferry, you will need to buy a ticket. And for this you need to have certain documents with you.
Those who like to travel or go on the road for business are forced to use different types of transport. So that purchasing a ticket does not become a problem and does not interfere with plans, you need to know what documents are needed when buying a ticket for a particular type of transport. For example, by ferry.
Ferry Ticket Purchase Methods
For tourists, the easiest way to buy a ferry ticket is with a travel agency. That is, the traveler orders a certain tour, as well as the type of transport (in this case, the ferry), and the tour operators themselves will decide whether to buy a ticket.
In addition, you can purchase a ferry ticket through the ticket offices of shipping companies. However, this method is not suitable for everyone, since such companies are located in cities that are the starting point for the ferry. And it is unlikely that tourists who start their journey from other cities (or even countries) will first come to another city to buy a ferry ticket. It will be much easier for them to buy it online.
The method of buying a ferry ticket via the Internet is considered the most universal. To do this, you need to visit the website of one of the companies that offers vouchers in the direction necessary for the traveler. Then, using the online calculator service, you can calculate the approximate cost of the ticket. To do this, you need to indicate the points of departure and destination, the required cabin class, as well as the travel period.
If there is no such function on the site, then you can find out the cost of the ticket by contacting the staff by phone or e-mail address. You can pay for the ticket using a bank card, through an electronic wallet or in cash through any bank branch. And at the port, you will only need to give your name and e-ticket number (provided that the tourist travels without transport).
Buying a ferry ticket at the port
In addition, you can buy a ferry ticket at the port itself. But for this you need to come in advance (2-3 hours before sending), and also have all the necessary documents with you.
Travelers who are not burdened with personal transport or who have in use a bicycle, moped, scooter or motorcycle without a sidecar can go straight to the ticket office. By presenting a passport or birth certificate, they can buy a ticket and take the ferry.
Motorists, however, will have to wait at the accumulation site until the ferry employee hands over a note or a token indicating the length of the car, because the cost of its ferry depends on this. After that, you can go to the cashier. To purchase ferry tickets, you must present a passport, passports or birth certificates of all passengers and a car registration certificate. Based on these documents and the received token, the cashier will determine the price of transportation and issue tickets.
