Venu Shipping has slashed fares for MV Suilven’s first trip to Savusavu which is later today.
The company has confirmed the fare from Suva to Savusavu for one way will be only $39 per person and would be the same for Savusavu to Suva.
Venu Shipping said this was because they want people to see what the refurbished Suilven has to offer to the people of Fiji.
Whilst people can buy their tickets at any Venu Shipping outlet, the company says they will also be selling the tickets at the ship.
MV Suilven will depart from Port Mua-i-Walu at Walu Bay in Suva at 5pm today heading to Savusavu and similarly, it will depart Savusavu at 8pm on Saturday for Suva.
A bus will be provided at Savusavu for those wanting to travel to Labasa with an additional fare of $8 per person.
MV Suilven will resume services after being out of action for almost two years.
