On the routes connecting the Minor Islands of Sicily (Aeolian Islands, Ustica, Egadi Islands, Pelagie Islands and Pantelleria), it is possible to benefit of “Resident” passenger fares.
Fares - Resident Passengers
The resident fare is exclusively for passengers whose place of residence, as stated on their identity document, is in a municipality of the Minor Islands of Sicily.
The resident fare allows you to purchase a travel ticket at a significantly reduced price compared to a regular passenger.
No, you can benefit from the resident fare only when purchasing a ticket to or from an island within your municipality of residence.
In this case, you will need to go to a port ticket office and request a self-certification form. By filling it out and submitting it to the operator, you will be able to benefit from the resident fare.
Yes, vehicles can also benefit of a resident fare, but not all of them. In fact, only cars, motorcycles, campers, and trailers are eligible for a “resident” fare, unlike buses, commercial vehicles, and three-wheeled vehicles, for which only the standard fare is available.
Please note that even if the aforementioned categories of vehicles may benefit to a resident fare, it is essential to specify that the discount applies only if the vehicle is registered to a resident passenger and that the passenger is traveling with that vehicle. Otherwise, the resident fare will not be applied.
The same rule applies to vehicles registered to legal entities: the company that owns the vehicle must be based in the municipality of the destination island, and the passenger must also be a resident.
No, each passenger is subject to the fare corresponding to their own place of residence, even if they belong to the same household.
Yes, resident passengers must prove their actual place of residence in order to access the discounted fare. Therefore, a valid identity document must be presented at the ticket office; otherwise, the standard fare will be applied.
During boarding, staff may also request to see your identity document, and if you refuse to present it, boarding may be denied.
