With convenient schedules and a focus on comfort and efficiency, it’s no wonder the transport operator is a top choice for those traveling between Hong Kong and Macau.

TurboJET offers a porter service to passengers in Premier Grand class.

Quick. Reliable. Punctual. These adjectives are synonymous with TurboJET, a brand overseen by Shun Tak-China Travel Ship Management Limited that leads the way in multimodal transportation within the Greater Bay Area. TurboJET’s fleet of high-speed ferries offer the fastest route between the city centers of Hong Kong and Macau, with sailings every half-hour during the day and an hourly service in the evenings.

Passengers boarding TurboJET ferries from the main terminal in Hong Kong’s Sheung Wan neighborhood can look forward to fast, comfortable journeys to Macau Outer Harbour. Strategically located on the city’s doorstep, the latter is served by the local bus network for easy access to the Historic Center of Macau — protected as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 2005 — as well as complimentary shuttle buses to integrated resorts throughout the Macau Peninsula and the Cotai area.

Travelers arriving at or departing from Hong Kong International Airport can also take advantage of TurboJET’s direct route between the airport’s SkyPier and Macau Outer Ferry Terminal. Since SkyPier is located in the transit area, Macau-bound passengers will hop straight on the ferry without going through immigration formalities.

Notably, the dependable operator doesn’t just ferry passengers between Hong Kong and Macau. TurboJET also acts as a ticket agent for key cross-border routes covering major ports in the Greater Bay Area, including Zhuhai on the western shore of the Pearl River Estuary and Shekou in Shenzhen, China’s answer to Silicon Valley.

Through the eBoarding service, anyone making online reservations at turbojet.com.hk will receive a QR code via email for direct boarding without physical tickets. Walk-in customers at Hong Kong Macau Ferry Terminal who desire maximum flexibility with their schedules can make use of the One Tap to Go service. This is a hassle-free feature that allows them to board the next available sailing by using various e-payment methods at the fare gate, including Visa and Mastercard, as well as Octopus, Alipay, WeChat Pay, and UnionPay.

Each TurboJET vessel is divided into three classes: Economy, Super, and Premier Grand. Depending on one’s chosen class, the travel experience can be with the addition of bespoke value-added services, be it paperless ticketing, onboard meals, or land transfers in Macau.

Travel in Comfort

Complimentary meals are available for Super and Premier Grand passengers. In Super class, choices include TurboJET’s signature hot dog, sandwiches, and instant noodles. Those seated in Premier Grand will be served hot meals at breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, or dinner, according to the time of the sailing; the premium selection of food and drinks extends to table wine and champagne. For added convenience, Premier Grand passengers can pre-order their meal from a designated menu via TurboJET’s official website before the date of departure.

Other privileges afforded to Super and Premier Grand customers during the journey includes exclusive onboard 5G Wi-Fi access, additional baggage allowance at no extra charge, use of waiting lounges at the ferry terminals, and priority disembarkation.

Advance booking is required for seamless onward land transfers. Both Economy and Super class passengers arriving at Macau Outer Harbour Ferry Terminal have the option of taking a shuttle to downtown Macau and the urban center of Taipa. Those stops are adjacent to popular tourist spots, such as Grand Lisboa Macau, Senado Square, and New Yaohan Macau. Passengers booked into Premier Grand can make reservations with the Premier Plus service to reach any point in Macau from the ferry terminal.

Premier Plus land transfers are offered to Premier Grand guests.
