6. Common questions

Is there a discount for a round trip?

On the jetfoil, yes: if you buy a jetfoil round-trip ticket for travel within 7 days, counting the outbound day, the return fare is 10% off. The fuel surcharge is not discounted. On the ferry, a car that makes a round trip on the same route within 7 days, counting the outbound day, gets 20% off the car’s return fare. This does not apply to Hakata–Hitakatsu, or to motorbikes and bicycles (Kyushu Yusen Q&A, Q3-6).

Can I take my car on the jetfoil?

No. Only the ferries carry cars.
