Business Class passengers have their own dedicated cabin - Lazio Lounge - also situated on the upper deck.

Boarding Process

When travelling from Mahe to La Digue, you should arrive at the Mahe Jetty at least 1 hour in advance, giving you time to check in your luggage. You will receive a digital Boarding Pass by email approximately 24-48 hours before departure. If, for some reason, you do not have your boarding pass when you get to the jetty, simply visit the Creole Travel Services jetty office for assistance.

Boarding starts 30 minutes before departure at the Cat Cocos Berth, with the Boarding Gate closing 5 minutes before the scheduled departure time.

During the short stopover in Praslin, passengers travelling with Cat Cocos from Mahe to La Digue will usually remain on the same vessel. Occasionally, it may be necessary to transfer from one Cat Cocos ferry to another. Should this happen, don't worry; the Cat Cocos crew will transfer your luggage between vessels. The same applies to the journey back from La Digue to Mahe, where the crew would transfer your luggage to the Praslin to Mahe ferry.

Baggage Allowance

Every passenger (except infants) is allowed to bring one piece of carry-on baggage not exceeding 7kg with maximum dimensions of 50cm X 30 cm X 20cm. Any cabin baggage above this size will be considered ‘checked baggage’ and will be stowed in the cargo compartment.
