User Reviews

Direct Ferries’ app is useful for searching and comparing ferry options but is marred by high pricing, missing in-app tickets, poor customer service, and frequent booking/cancellation glitches, making it unreliable for actual travel reservations despite good discovery features.
Pros
  • Efficient search and comparison of ferry options (times and fares).
  • Useful for discovering multiple ferry options in one place.
  • App generally works fine for basic tasks (viewing/browsing bookings).
Cons
  • Higher prices and nonrefundable fees compared to official ferry sites.
  • In-app tickets are often not issued or visible; you must use port or operator to obtain tickets.
  • Poor customer support and difficulty contacting the company; slow responses and limited assistance.
  • Cancellations/changes are mishandled or blocked; refunds are often partial or unavailable.
  • App reliability issues and glitches (buttons not working, crashes, difficulties modifying bookings).

Got this app to book a ferry from Ireland to Wales, seemed pretty easy to use. Got to the Stena ferry in Dublin harbor, they informed us that there is a new policy-ETA-UK- which direct ferries+stena, provide zero info about and we could not board until info was submitted, could take days. Bottom line, we couldn’t board, direct ferries+stena will not refund the $180, not even partially, plus, you can only contact them via chat bot, which keeps apologizing, but blames the traveller.

My credit card was accepted 4 times(2x Amex & 2x Visa) by my CC companies, but each time the website site said it was not accepted. Then I tried again ( booking for 2 Seniors) and it said there was no tickets available for the trip. Now I tried again ( the sixth time) it was available, but no senior price offerings and it finally was accepted - but at a higher price. DO NOT USE THEIR BOOKING SERVICE!!!
