    Things to know

    Minors must be accompanied by an adult unless they have Jet Express authorization. Boarding starts before departure; arriving less than 5 minutes before may mean you lose your seat.

    Cancellation Policy

    Bookings may be rebooked for any scheduled departure during the 2026 season. Tickets are only valid for the 2026 season. All ticket sales are final and non-refundable. Refunds will only be issued if departures are cancelled by the Jet Express due to inclement weather.

    FAQs

    Plan to be in line about 15 minutes before departure. Boarding starts shortly before departure, and arriving less than 5 minutes before may mean you lose your seat.

    Use the digital ticket and have your barcode scanned as you board. You can show it on a smartphone or tablet, or print it at home.

    Bring the credit card used to pay for your booking and matching valid photo identification. Make sure the name on the card matches the contact name on the booking.

    Getting to Put-in-Bay by ferry is half the fun, and most passengers seem to genuinely enjoy the ride. The boats are fast and comfortable, the staff consistently gets praised for being friendly and professional, and flexible scheduling, including late-night departures, makes it easy to plan your day around your own timeline rather than a rigid timetable. The crew stands out in particular. Multiple reviewers mention how welcoming and accommodating the staff are, including the ability to switch to an earlier boat when plans change. That kind of flexibility is a real plus for a day trip. Fares run a little higher than some travelers expect, so it's worth budgeting accordingly before you go. There is one review raising concerns about how a situation was handled onboard, which is worth noting, though it appears to be an isolated experience among an otherwise overwhelmingly positive track record.

    Jet Express was a great way to get to Put-in-Bay. We had an amazing day on the island in great weather. We wanted to come back on an earlier boat, and they were very accommodating. Thank you, Jet Express!!
