Stena Line saving tips for 2026
Stack savings with Stena Line’s loyalty programme
There are three Stena More tiers: Blue, Gold and Platinum.
Here’s a breakdown of the benefits and how to climb them:
Stena Line has a special offers page dedicated to ferry deals that makes finding the right offer easy.
It’s updated regularly, so worth browsing through to see if there’s a new promotion available.
Use the Stena Line low fare calendar
Get additional benefits at Stena Line if you are a member of any of the following partner brands:
Stena Line lets all children up to the age of three travel for free and regularly runs kids go free offers during selected periods.
Keep an eye on the special offers page before completing your booking, to ensure you aren’t missing extra savings.
Pets (including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters) are allowed if booked ahead in a pet-friendly cabin or kennel.
There is a maximum of two pets per cabin booking and smaller pets must stay in a carrier and remain inside it whilst on the ferry.
If your pet stays in the vehicle (selected routes), there may be an extra charge, but amenities such as pet lounges or kennels usually must be booked in advance.
Stena line has pet guidance for each of its routes, so that you know what documents are required to travel with your animal.
Amendment and cancellation terms per fare type
Stena Line offers three different fare types (economy, flexi and premium).
The more flexible the fare, the more leeway there is for refunds or changes.
If you amend your booking and your new fare is more expensive, then you’ll have to pay the extra cost.
We recommend always checking the small print before booking and taking out travel insurance as extra cover.
Where do I redeem my Stena Line discount code?
Look for the offer code box when you are selecting your route and dates; it will be located under the button "Search trip".
This is very helpful so you don't need to spend time putting in all your contact details and extra options before learning if the code works.
When can I check in at Stena Line?
Stena Line’s check-in windows vary by port and route.
In general, aim to arrive two to three hours before departure for crossings with vehicles and no later than one hour before in many cases.
You can see a breakdown of timings, along with what to bring with you, on the check-in information page.
Does Stena Line have sailing updates?
To stay informed on updates, changes and real-time tracking, use Stena Line’s sailing tracker.
You can check everything from port alerts, weather delays and schedule changes in the 24 hours before you travel.
