Sail away! You can buy your Ponte Ferries tickets from Malta to Sicily as of today
That travel bug’s got us! Ponte Ferries tickets to Sicily are going on sale as of today. The new fast ferry catamaran service will be operating to Sicily and one-way trips start from as little as €9.99.
Ponte Ferries’ high-speed craft, HSC Artemis, will operate daily return trips to the conveniently located port of Augusta from 6th August.
The Ferry's features
The 96m-long catamaran comfortably accommodates 600 passengers and features a deck for both cars and cargo trucks. It's also equipped with many facilities including USB charging connections on every seat, a specially designated area for pet owners, and a family-friendly area where children can be kept entertained in a supervised environment. The vessel also has a state-of-the-art club class lounge, among several innovative features. Fancy!
“We are delighted to bring much-needed competition to this market in time for the peak holiday season. Our vessel offers great value and has the added advantage of berthing in Augusta, which is just a short drive away from Catania, Syracuse, the shopping outlets and Taormina,” a spokesperson for the ferry service said.
“Our customers will also benefit from Ponte’s low-cost pricing model similar to the low-cost airlines which will make travelling to Sicily easy, convenient and affordable. As an introductory offer, we will shortly issue discount vouchers to households in Malta and Gozo so everybody will have the opportunity to try out our great service,” he added.
