Two separate tickets: the metro at EUR 9.00 and the hydrofoil from EUR 14.00 do not cover each other, and no tickets are issued on board.

The metro ends at Piraeus, not at the quay. Aegean Flying Dolphins' Piraeus ticket agency is at Gate E8.

Aegean Flying Dolphins' timetable sheet lists other October times than its booking page, and the booking page shows no sailing on 31 October: check the sailing when you book.
