The success of the year round programme of special offer fares enabling Steam Packet passengers to benefit from excellent travel opportunities has led to the discontinuation of the Sail & Save scheme. Additionally the launch of our new website in March 2005, has enabled the Company to offer its customers a variety of discounted fares which give superb value for money.

For example, our wide range of current offers, bookable at www.steam-packet.com include

  • Car + 2 from £98 return
  • Foot Passenger from £15 single

(prices shown exclude fuel surcharge)

These compare very favourably to 1995 prices of:

  • Car + 2 from £149 return
  • Foot Passenger from £16 single

Rupert Trevelyan, Steam Packet Director of Marketing, said: “We are confident that the ability to book online at a discount and pick from our widely available special offers, will give more of our customers the opportunity to book at lower prices throughout the year.“

The Company will honour bookings already made by customers with the intention of taking advantage of the Sail & Save scheme. However no initial bookings made after 1st March 2006 will be valid. Redemptions will be subject to availability and terms and conditions.

The Steam Packet values its customers and is conducting a feasibility study into a broader web based loyalty scheme which could be launched in 2007/8.

The Steam Packet is committed to providing the best possible fares for sea travellers to and from the Isle of Man.
