How does it work ?
If you’re traveling with bags weighing up to 23kg or oversize luggage, please present your ticket and ID one hour before departure.If you are traveling with a hand luggage only (< 15kg), please arrive 30 minutes beforehand. Please note: boarding closes 5 minutes before departure.
In order to not slow down the embarkation of new passengers during stopovers, we encourage you not to go ashore and to stay on board.

Mara’amu
Don’t worry !
Please note: during the July – August Mara’amu period (strong wind from the South), crossing times are longer and sailing can be more difficult.
But don’t worry!
Apetahi Express will send you a text message in the event of a heavy swell. You’ll be able to change your ticket for free, request a refund, or board anyway and show you’re an aito
