Ferry or flight from Saranda to Corfu?
For most passengers on this route the ferry is the better way: it leaves from the port in Saranda and lands you in Corfu itself, carries as much luggage as you can wheel and the car, and turns the journey into part of the holiday. A flight only wins when the crossing is long and time is short. Haqqi Tours provides flights too, and says honestly which is better for your dates.

Coming back? Say so on the form. A return ferry ticket from Corfu to Saranda booked with the outbound is frequently cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the whole trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.
How much does the ferry from Saranda to Corfu cost?
The cost of the ferry from Saranda to Corfu depends on the operator, the type of vessel, the date, whether you travel as a foot passenger or with a car, and the seat or cabin you choose. A conventional ferry is cheaper than a high-speed one; a summer Saturday costs more than a weekday in May; a car adds a vehicle fare; a cabin on an overnight sailing adds more. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price: we look up the live fares for your exact date and send the real cost through WhatsApp, with the options side by side.
What we include in the price we send: the ticket for each passenger, the vehicle if you bring one, any reserved seat or cabin you asked for, port taxes, and our service - checking the timetable, booking, sending the e-ticket and answering questions before and during the crossing.
Cheapest ferry ticket from Saranda to Corfu: how to pay less
The cheapest ferry ticket from Saranda to Corfu is normally on the conventional ferry, booked early, on a weekday outside the peak weeks. These are the rules our team applies:
- Tell us if your dates are flexible; moving by a day frequently changes the fare
- Compare operators - on this route the cheapest company changes with the date
- Price the crossing with and without the car - for two people a rental at the other end is sometimes cheaper
- Book the return with the outbound - open returns and round-trip fares are cheaper on many operators
- Ask about children's, student and resident fares, and about vehicle offers outside high season
- Choose the conventional ferry over the high-speed boat when time allows - it is cheaper, steadier and frequently more scenic
Send us the form with your dates and we tell you which sailing is the cheapest ferry from Saranda to Corfu that day and how much a different day would save.
