About Makruzz

What makes Makruzz different

Makruzz Ferry began operations in 2009 and is often credited with starting the private ferry era in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The fleet -- Makruzz, Makruzz Gold and Makruzz Pearl -- comprises fully air-conditioned twin-hull catamarans rated for comfort in reasonable open-water conditions. Three seat classes (Premium, Deluxe, Royal) are offered on the same sailing, so you can choose comfort level per leg.

Makruzz operates daily sailings linking Port Blair, Havelock and Neil Island. Per the official Makruzz FAQ, passengers should report at Haddo Jetty in Port Blair for departures (the airport is roughly 15-20 minutes away). Morning sailings typically begin around 6:00 AM and the last daily service usually departs by 2:00 PM. Tickets are bookable online through operator-authorised partners, with e-tickets delivered to your email and phone.

How to download your Makruzz e-ticket

Once a Makruzz booking is confirmed, the e-ticket is dispatched to the email address and phone number you entered. Three ways to retrieve it:

  • Email: Search your inbox for the booking confirmation from noreply@go2andaman.com. The ticket PDF is attached.
  • Booking ID lookup: Visit ferry.go2andaman.com/my-booking, enter your booking reference and email, and re-download the ticket.
  • WhatsApp / SMS: A link to the ticket PDF is also delivered to the registered mobile number at the time of booking.

Cancellation & refunds

Makruzz ferry cancellation policy

Makruzz follows a tiered cancellation policy applied by Go2Andaman at the time of refund. Charges depend on how far in advance you cancel:

  • More than 72 hours before departure: Typically 10–15% cancellation fee; the balance is refunded to the original payment method.
  • 24–72 hours before departure: 25–50% cancellation fee depending on the class booked.
  • Less than 24 hours before departure: Usually non-refundable; a no-show is also treated as a cancellation.
  • Weather cancellations: If Makruzz cancels the sailing itself (rough seas, technical issues), you're entitled to a full refund or free rescheduling to the next available service.

To cancel, go to ferry.go2andaman.com/my-booking, pull up your reservation and hit "Cancel". Refunds typically reach your account in 5–7 working days.


Save on tickets

How to get discounts on Makruzz ferry tickets

Private Andaman ferries rarely run fixed discounts, and the fare-timing tricks that work on flights mostly do not work here. We checked the published fares against the live feed rather than repeat the usual advice, and this is what it actually shows:

  • The class you pick matters more than the sailing you pick. On Makruzz the lead-in class is Premium, and the gap between it and the top class is far larger than any gap between departures on the same day. Choose the class first.
  • The first departure is usually not dearer. Comparing departures on the same day, same sector and same class in the live feed, roughly two thirds were priced identically, and where a later sailing was cheaper the difference was ₹100 to ₹400. Booking a mid-morning sailing to save money is as likely to save you nothing as anything.
  • Do not assume a cheap class is the one that sells out. On the sailings we checked, the cheapest class was almost never the one with the fewest seats left. Use the live panel above, which shows seats remaining per class, instead of booking up a class on the assumption that the cheap one will go.
  • Season moves fares for some operators and not others. Comparing the same sector, vessel and class between September dates and December-January ones, Makruzz was cheaper in September on nearly every class, Green Ocean did not move at all, and Nautika was dearer in September more often than cheaper. Rather less than half the comparisons came out identical, so there is movement -- there is just no single cheap month that holds across operators. Check the date you actually want in the search bar above.
  • Groups: For a large party, contact Go2Andaman customer support before booking seat by seat. We do not publish a group rate because Makruzz does not publish one.

We have not found a published student, senior or concession fare for Makruzz. If you have seen one, it is not in the operator's fare data we can read, so do not plan around it.
