Also can be due to the E-vouchers, people here has been talking abt, the vouchers can be use only on mon-fri without getting charged an extra $10. So most would in one way or another makes full use of the voucher by heading to btm on a friday evening. School holidays ends 1 jan 2020,so u have minimum conflict on yr traveling date.

Thanks all! |
My advise, once u reached airport, ask someone helps u dial horizon harbour front to book a seat or send them an email a day or 2 in advance but u need to be there abt an hour before ferry take off or risk yr reserved seat for yr preferred timing being overwrite by their so call new booking system. That's what i was told by them.

If u are in Sg, call em. If u are oversea, email em. On email, they usually reply u within 24 hrs. My suggestion is still call em, if it's not too inconvenient.
Avoid overpaying for the E-vouchers. $2.5 is good, $1.5-$2 is better, f.o.c is the best, which is not impossible.

Yes, u can collect yr boarding pass days beforehand.
Anything else not sure, on yr voucher there is a Horizon tel number, call em.

Public holidays & long weekends,always book in advance to ensure seats are available. At times even when i call em 2 to 3 days in advance, their economic seats were sold out. End up taking Business class. On the day itself, even Business class can be sell out fast.
Friday is a peak weekday.
