Spirit of Tasmania will continue adjust its vehicle decks to create more availability of high space on sailings for caravans and motorhomes from January to April next year.
This work, which continued this week, will likely clear the bulk of the current waitlists.
Typically, adjustments to high-space availability are made closer to each travel date. However, TT-Line has decided to apply these adjustments to all sailings in the first four months of 2025 to provide more flexibility and convenience for our passengers.
Priority was given to night sailings, as they have the greatest waitlists.
TT-Line has already cleared more than 200 waitlisted bookings in the initial stages of this change and will continue working to optimise bookings, with extra consideration given to high-space travel needs.
Day sailings scheduled from January to April 2025 will be addressed in the next phase of adjustments.
The vessels have multiple vehicle decks, which includes a hanging deck that can be raised or lowered depending on demand requirements.
The Company raises the deck panels to create additional high-space in response to ongoing directional high-space demand.
Importantly, the additional space is immediately available for booking on the Spirit of Tasmania website. Passengers are encouraged to regularly check online availability.
Waitlisted passengers will be contacted directly by the Company.
Further, the Company has introduced additional sailings for April, September and October 2025 that are now available to book.
Spirit of Tasmania has 158-day sailings scheduled for the current financial year, with 138 scheduled for November 2024 through to April 2025.
The changes to the deck formation will not impact the Company's freight business.
