Makruzz: dated timetable and fare reference

No verified Makruzz sample for this direction is included in the published reference. Use the dated search or ask AWT to confirm a sailing; the opposite direction’s timetable is not evidence of this service.

Start with Neil Island without assuming a Havelock stay

Choose this direction if Neil Island is your first island stay. Enter Neil Island as the destination even if a sailing calls at Havelock; a ticket only to Havelock does not automatically cover the rest of the journey.

Departure patterns can differ from the busier Port Blair-to-Havelock route. Check your exact date before fixing hotel nights. If no suitable sailing appears, ask AWT to compare another date or an itinerary with a separately planned Havelock stay.

Match the Makruzz vessel to the cabin you want

Makruzz class names include Premium, Deluxe and Royal, but the available categories depend on the allocated vessel. Do not assume every Makruzz sailing has every class. Check the vessel and live class inventory before deciding on an upgrade.

Premium is the practical starting point for a reserved cabin seat. Compare Deluxe or Royal for the specific seating arrangement offered on your sailing. A class name does not guarantee a window seat, and an example fleet seating plan is not a live seat allocation.

Confirm the vessel: Makruzz, Gold, Pearl or another vessel shown in the dated result.
Check seats together before choosing a category for a family.
Review the relevant deck layout if stairs or boarding assistance matter.

Board the correct Neil-bound service at Port Blair

Private services generally depart from Haddo; use the terminal named on the confirmed ticket. Check whether the itinerary remains on one vessel or involves a transfer. Have AWT explain each sector before paying if the journey is not straightforward.

Allow for arrival formalities, luggage and road transfer before the reporting deadline. A same-day mainland arrival and ferry departure need a practical buffer, not simply a gap between the two timetable entries.

Prepare for the departure terminal: Haddo departure guide

Compare the complete ticket cost

The AWT published Makruzz samples separate passenger base fare from ₹50 port fee and ₹325 fuel surcharge. The owner-confirmed seasonal addition is ₹100 per person from 15 December 2026 through 15 January 2027. These guide figures do not replace the final provider quotation.

Choose the travel date and passenger ages before comparing totals. Check the vessel, class, seat allocation and payable amount for this sector. Transfers, accommodation and sightseeing are separate unless your quotation expressly includes them.

Set up your stay on Shaheed Dweep

Arrange pickup at the Neil Island passenger jetty for the arrival actually shown on your ticket. Share any intermediate call with the hotel so they do not use a direct-crossing estimate.

Plan the rest of the island order before booking: Neil-to-Havelock availability may differ from Havelock-to-Neil. Confirm that later leg first if Havelock is essential to your itinerary.

Before you confirm this crossing

In the search results, choose a Makruzz sailing and review the vessel, class and selected seats before continuing to passenger details.
If visiting Havelock after Neil, search Neil-to-Havelock separately for the planned date. Do not infer a reverse-direction sailing from the Havelock-to-Neil timetable.
Use each traveller’s name as shown on the accepted identity document. Declare infants and children with their correct ages; check the selected operator’s age and seat rules.
Keep medicines, identity documents and valuables in your small hand bag. Check baggage allowance and any excess charge on the operator’s current terms before packing.
Read cancellation and rescheduling conditions before payment. A replacement sailing depends on availability and may involve a fare difference.

Makruzz luggage, food and offline preparation

Makruzz’s published rules list 25 kg of registered baggage and ask passengers to report one hour before departure with a printed ticket and photo ID. Recheck your issued ticket for the applicable instructions. Large bags go in the baggage hold; keep essential medicines, documents and valuables accessible.

Food is available onboard, but check whether a snack is included in your particular ticket. Save the arrival driver’s number and your next ticket before boarding: Makruzz’s FAQ says internet and calling are not available during the crossing. Request assistance before travel if needed.

Frequently asked questions

Makruzz Port Blair to Neil Island FAQs

Practical answers to help you plan, book and board with confidence.

Do I need to stay on Havelock before going to Neil?

Not if a suitable dated Port Blair-to-Neil ticket is available. Check whether the sailing is direct, calls at Havelock or requires a connection before choosing the island order.

Does this search show only Makruzz?

No. The search compares supported operators on the chosen route. Select Makruzz in the returned options if it is available; the page itself does not reserve a Makruzz seat.

Which cabin should I choose for Port Blair to Neil Island?

Compare the available Premium, Deluxe or Royal seats on the actual allocated vessel, rather than expecting all fleet categories on every departure. Use the actual through-journey duration and vessel when deciding whether an upgraded cabin is worthwhile.

How do I plan the next journey after arriving?

If visiting Havelock after Neil, search Neil-to-Havelock separately for the planned date. Do not infer a reverse-direction sailing from the Havelock-to-Neil timetable.
