Use the Stena Line low fare calendar

One of the easiest ways to save is by being flexible with dates. Stena Line’s low fare calendar highlights the cheapest days to travel. This means you can pick the cheapest available slot and combine it with a voucher or loyalty discount for even cheaper travel.

If your plans are flexible by a few days either side, this tool may even save you more than a coupon could.

Helpful booking information

Kids go free

Stena Line lets all children up to the age of three travel for free and regularly runs kids go free offers during selected periods. Keep an eye on the special offers page before completing your booking, to ensure you aren’t missing extra savings.

Stena Line pet policy

Pets (including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters) are allowed if booked ahead in a pet-friendly cabin or kennel. There is a maximum of two pets per cabin booking and smaller pets must stay in a carrier and remain inside it whilst on the ferry.

If your pet stays in the vehicle (selected routes), there may be an extra charge, but amenities such as pet lounges or kennels usually must be booked in advance. Stena line has pet guidance for each of its routes, so that you know what documents are required to travel with your animal.

Amendment and cancellation terms per fare type

Stena Line offers three different fare types (economy, flexi and premium). The more flexible the fare, the more leeway there is for refunds or changes.

• Economy is the cheapest but typically non-refundable and any changes will incur a fee.
• Flexi often allows amendments for free and a full refund on cancellations up to 24 hours before departure.
• Premium offers maximum flexibility and full refunds up to two hours before departure, minus a small cancellation fee.

If you amend your booking and your new fare is more expensive, then you’ll have to pay the extra cost. We recommend always checking the small print before booking and taking out travel insurance as extra cover.
