Montenegro Shipping Lines Announces Nationwide Fare Hikes Starting March 23

MANILA, Philippines — Montenegro Shipping Lines, one of the country’s largest domestic ferry operators, has announced a nationwide fare adjustment for both passengers and vehicles effective March 23, 2026.

The price hike is expected to range between 10% and 25%, depending on the specific route and service type. The adjustment applies to all passenger tickets and “rolling cargo,” including motorcycles, cars, and trucks.

Key Drivers for the Adjustment

According to an official advisory released via the company’s Facebook page, the decision was driven by a sharp increase in global fuel prices which have risen by nearly 40% due to ongoing volatility in the Middle East.

The company emphasized that the adjustment is a necessary step to maintain operational stability and is necessary to ensure the services continue to run safely and consistently without disruption.

Passengers planning to travel on or after March 23 are encouraged to:

• Verify Fares: Check updated pricing at local terminals or the official Montenegro Shipping Lines Facebook page before booking.
