Fare rules
Ages
Adult fares apply from age 12.
CONFLICT (R3). "Children under 5 years of age are not eligible for ticket bookings" is ambiguous: it reads either as travel free or as may not travel.
Baggage
25 kg per person. Excess baggage charges are not currently published.
Check in
Report to the terminal at least one hour before departure.
Changes and cancellations
CONFLICT (R1). Rates page says 2 hours before departure. Terms say "up to one (12) hour prior", which is itself contradictory. Three different values. Not published until Azam Marine confirms.
Please contact customer service to confirm the current deadline before you rely on it.
