You can change your sailing at any point prior to Check-In opening (i.e. one hour before scheduled departure). To change your sailing, simply log in to your booking online and select an alternative available sailing. You can change to an equivalent priced sailing free of charge or pay additional costs to upgrade to a more expensive sailing.

The easiest way for you to make your ferry booking is through our website.     However, if you need to get in touch with us to assist with or change your booking, please contact us on 0800 802 802 (international: +64 4 498 3302) or by email on bookings@interislander.co.nz.  We're around Monday to Sunday: 8am to 5pm. 

You are allowed to bring your pet, but they must be kept in your vehicle for the entirety of the journey. If you are travelling as a foot passenger then we have kennels available for hire. Cats can be checked-in provided they are in a suitable animal carrier/cage. Other caged animals can also be checked-in. You will not be able to visit your animal during the sailing, so please ensure they are well fed, watered and exercised prior to boarding.
