How the calculator works: an example

Example: you're booking a ferry to Morocco direct with Direct Ferries for £120.00, and you have a 10% off code. If a 20% travel sale is on and the code also works on sale bookings, the sale takes off £24.00 and the code a further £9.60, so the booking drops to £86.40: a saving of £33.60. Press “Fill in the example” to see it worked out, or put in your own booking, sale and code. Whether a code works on sale bookings depends on its terms.

How to use a Direct Ferries discount code

  1. Most Direct Ferries savings need no code: search for your crossing on directferries.co.uk and any special offer on that sailing is applied to the price automatically.
  2. If you have a code from Student Beans or an employee or discount platform, open Direct Ferries through the link that platform gives you: the code box appears only when you arrive that way.
  3. Choose your sailing and go through to the payment page, where you'll find the discount code box. Enter the code there.
  4. Check the discount shows before you pay. If it's refused, read the offer's terms: codes from Eurail, Interrail and motorhome associations can't be used on Direct Ferries.

Why is my Direct Ferries discount code not working?

The code box only appears when you open Direct Ferries through the link from the platform that gave you the code, so going to the site directly won't show it. If the code is still refused, check the offer's terms for exclusions; discounts from Eurail, Interrail and motorhome associations can't be used on Direct Ferries.

How much does it cost to change or cancel a Direct Ferries booking?

Online in My Account, a change costs the fare difference plus £10 and a cancellation carries a £10 fee on top of the ferry company's own charges; by phone, messenger or email it's up to £20. Changes made within the first 24 hours cost only the fare difference, and promotional fares may not be refundable.
