The 30-second answer
Book if you can. Walk-up depends on remaining space.
Walk-up travel is possible only when space remains. Complete counter check-in 30 minutes before departure and distinguish a free bagged bicycle from an intact paid bicycle.
What can travel
Passenger, vehicle and baggage rules
“Yes” means the operator publishes a carriage category. Space and vessel restrictions still apply.
Cars can be reserved by web or phone; walk-up carriage depends on remaining vehicle-deck space.
Motorcycles can be reserved by web or phone and use the vehicle deck.
A bagged bicycle is free carry-on when declared in the web booking. An intact bicycle is a paid vehicle-deck item and should be reserved.
With-pet rooms and pet-room cages must be reserved by phone together with the ferry booking.
Ask the operator about items above the 2 m or 30 kg baggage limit before travel.
