About Bluebridge

Bluebridge provides the main budget-friendly link between Wellington and Picton. While their fleet is smaller than the competition, they stand out for their utility and lower base prices for vehicle transport. Promotions rely on long-standing partnerships with organizations like the NZMCA and Farmlands. Promo codes are a standard part of the booking process, though they are usually restricted to specific membership groups or student verification. The 2:00 AM sailing consistently offers the lowest entry price for budget-conscious travelers.

Sells

Cook Strait ferry crossings for foot passengers and vehicles including cars, motorcycles, campervans, and commercial freight, plus private cabin bookings and premium lounge access.

Best For

Budget-conscious road trippers and motorhome owners who want a straightforward, cost-effective crossing and the added benefit of earning airline loyalty rewards.

Known For

Bluebridge offers private ensuite cabins providing a quiet space for families or resting travelers, and its Pōhutukawa Lounge, an age-restricted premium space offering inclusive food and beverages.

Price Range

Budget

Top Perks

Exclusive Air New Zealand Airpoints partner, earning rewards on fares and onboard upgrades.
Specialized dog-friendly cabins and dedicated exercise areas that allow pets to stay with their owners rather than in vehicles.
Central Wellington terminal opposite the main railway station.

Good to Know

Passenger space is limited on the 8:30 PM Wellington departure and 2:30 AM Picton departure because these are dedicated freight sailings with restricted amenities. Accessibility assistance and lift access are not available on the 2:30 AM sailing. Saver and Super Sail fares are non-refundable unless the operator cancels the sailing due to weather or mechanical issues.

Bluebridge promo code FAQs

Can I enter a Bluebridge promo code in the gift voucher field?

No. Enter promo codes on the price and availability screen while making a new booking. The Bluebridge Voucher field under Payment Method is for gift voucher codes.

Bluebridge cannot add the STUDENT code to a completed booking.

Can I use a Bluebridge promo code on a Saver Sail fare?

It depends on the code. STUDENT applies to public retail passenger and vehicle fares, including Saver Sail, Super Sail and Flexi Sail.

FARMLANDS gives eligible shareholders 15% off Super Sail and Flexi Sail passenger and vehicle fares, but not Saver Sail or freight bookings.

What does the Bluebridge STUDENT code discount?

Eligible secondary and tertiary students aged 16 or over save 5% on public retail passenger and vehicle fares with STUDENT. The booking must include at least one eligible student and no more than six passengers.

Cabins, the Pōhutukawa Lounge, excess baggage, food and drinks remain at their normal prices. For example, if eligible passenger and vehicle fares total $300, the discount is $15. With no extras and payment through fee-free POLi, the final price is $285.

Bring valid student proof to check in. Without it, Bluebridge charges the difference from the standard retail fare.

Pro tip: Keep your student proof with you rather than packed in your vehicle.

Can I combine a Bluebridge promo code with the family discount?

Sometimes. Bluebridge may combine its automatic family price with other eligible offers, but STUDENT cannot be combined with the family price or any other offer.

The family price applies to direct bookings with at least one adult or senior, at least one infant or child, and one vehicle other than a motorbike. Removing the child, infant or qualifying vehicle can make the booking ineligible, and Bluebridge may collect the difference from the standard retail fare at check in.

Do NZMCA, Farmlands and senior discounts require a Bluebridge promo code?

NZMCA and Farmlands discounts require codes, but seniors do not.

NZMCA: Use MOVANNERS in a direct Bluebridge booking. The booking must include at least one NZMCA member and no more than six passengers. Bring the member’s NZMCA membership card to check in.
Farmlands: Use FARMLANDS for 15% off eligible Super Sail and Flexi Sail passenger and vehicle fares. You can pay with your Farmlands card.
Seniors: If you are 65 or over, select the Senior passenger type online and bring proof of age, a SuperGold Card or a Grey Power Card.

Eligible NZMCA and Farmlands customers can also call Bluebridge on 0800 844 844 and quote the relevant code while booking.

Where can I find Bluebridge promo codes?

Check DontPayFull’s verified Bluebridge promo code listings first, then Bluebridge’s Our deals page, emails and social accounts for public offers.

For NZMCA, Farmlands and other partner offers, check Bluebridge’s Partnerships page and your organisation’s members-only area. Before booking, confirm the eligible fare type, passenger requirements and proof needed.
