Grimaldi Lines Rates
When purchasing a Grimaldi Lines ticket, the customer can choose between two different types of rates, which vary according to cost-effectiveness and flexibility: the standard rate and the special rate.
Standard Rate: full price that does not include the application of special timed promotions, but only the reduction for children, resident rates and partnership discounts. The fare is flexible as it allows, in addition to the variation, also the cancellation of the ticket by the passenger, with variable reimbursement as per the conditions in force, described therein.
Special Rate: reduced price by applying special timed promotions, active at the time of booking and valid for the type of travel and services selected, as well as offers valid all year round, resident rates, senior offer, and partnership discounts. The fare is the lowest available and for this reason less flexible than the standard one: it allows the passenger to change the ticket under the current conditions described therein, but generally does not provide for any refund for cancellation of the ticket by the passenger, unless otherwise specified from the conditions of application of special promotions. Special fare tickets may be subject to availability, where clearly specified.
Resident Rate: these are prices dedicated to residents / natives in Sardinia. By residents we mean EU or non-EU citizens residing in a municipality of the Sardinia Region as well as employees born in Sardinia and non-resident there and their dependent family members with suitable valid documentation presented at the booking or purchase and access to the naval unit. For more details on the rate, see the Sardinians Doc and Sicilians Doc page

For all passengers (over 2 years old) embarking towards Tunisia from Civitavecchia, Salerno and Palermo, it is compulsory to pay a fee of € 11,80 per passenger (International Maritime Voyages Fees), requested by the Tunisian Ministry of Transport in compliance with the Decree n. 368-2017 of 15.03.2017.
In accordance with the memorandum of understanding, established with City Council resolution no. 22 of 05/30/2023, starting from 04/1/2024 for the Salerno – Palermo line, a municipal surcharge will be applied to port boarding fees, in the amount of €1.50 for each paying passenger.
Under Directive (EU) 2023/959, shipping has been included in the European Union’s greenhouse gas emission allowance trading system (“EU ETS”). The obligations placed on shipping companies, particularly the obligation to purchase allowances, lead to an increase in the cost of maritime transport. Therefore, as of January 1st, 2024, an item called ‘EU ETS costs’ will be incorporated into the ticket price for each passenger and each vehicle, which varies in amount depending on the route and is neither discountable nor refundable. At present, public service routes (from Naples and Palermo to Cagliari and vice versa; from Civitavecchia to Arbatax and Cagliari and vice versa) and Civitavecchia-Olbia and vice versa are excluded from the application of the EU ETS.
