Port Phillip Ferries Guest Compass

Port Phillip Ferries has a brand new web app called Guest Compass. Designed for smartphones, this free resource is a one-stop-shop to the destinations we visit. Think of it as an onboard digital compendium containing everything from the latest specials and offers from our partners to a range of must-see attractions in the regions we travel to.

Port Phillip Ferries actively promotes the Guest Compass through multiple channels encouraging our passengers to use this resource as a guide to the destination they are travelling towards.

This promotion includes:

  • Link and details sent to every passenger via a booking confirmation email
  • QR code posters onboard both vessels linking directly to the Guest Compass
  • Onboard crew actively promoting to passengers when asked for information
  • Paid social media advertising, and more
