One of the benefits of travelling with Spirit of Tasmania is the ability to take your furry companions with you.
Our kennels are located on Deck 5. At the kennel location, there are a combination of both large and small kennels. A Pet Attendant is available during boarding to assist passengers with the assignment of an appropriate sized kennel.
For safety reasons, passenger access to the kennels is not permitted whilst sailing however regular checks are carried out and fresh water is supplied throughout the sailing.
Please note, bedding is not provided so we recommend that you bring your own bedding and comfort items to ensure that your pet is comfortable throughout the journey. If your pet has any special requirements please advise our crew at the time of boarding.
If your pet requires special assistance throughout the sailing, please provide a valid veterinary certificate, at least 72 hours prior to travel, indicating that your pet requires assistance during the voyage due to a pre-determined condition. This request will be approved in advance and a crew member will escort you to the kennel area to attend to your pet at the required times. For more information please call our Customer Contact Centre team on 1800 634 906.
Please watch our Travelling with pets video to ensure both you and your pet board safely.
Further information about travelling with pets can be found below. To view details about the conditions of travelling with animals on board please refer to the Conditions of Carriage – Special Conditions B: Animals.
