To celebrate the launch of the Samsung S25 series, Samsung will be offering Aussies commuters in Sydney and Brisbane the chance to elevate their commute, making the ordinary extraordinary.

Guests can enjoy a complimentary breakfast on board while taking in harbour and riverside views, experiencing everything the new Galaxy S25 Series has to offer.

      Metro is pretty quick AND reliable. It's the public transport we should've had 30 years ago

        i was referring ng to the industrial action :-)

  • INFIDEL on 18/02/2025 - 21:22

    Free morning travel & complimentary breakfast snacks!

    • neoleo on 18/02/2025 - 22:31

    It may be more premium but at 30min vs 22min for the Manly ferry, it’s definitely not faster.

    Ferry Commute on Galaxy Go Fleet - Manly..

    Tony & Peter & ScoMo will intercept you half way & turn you back

      With half baked subs and 2nd hand tanks…

  • neoleo on 18/02/2025 - 22:29

    That's op. Looks nice ferry and free breakfast. Even better if you win S25 Ultra and galaxy buds 3 pro from reading the website 😄

  • activ8newbs on 18/02/2025 - 23:00

    How do you get a ticket?

    • heef on 19/02/2025 - 00:28

      From the looks of it, you just show up and hope there's space. Might pay to go early if you reallyyyy want that free breakfast (and competition entry)

    maybe they can use the ferries to deliver stock to jb hifi, pre-ordered the s25 from a deal here and didn't even get the phone on launch, and still waiting smh

  • heef on 19/02/2025 - 00:32

    Subway, the ball is in your court. Rideable Sandwich Sub on the river?

    For those who missed it

  • Fasian on 19/02/2025 - 01:11

    Curious to see how popular this will be

  • bob19 on 19/02/2025 - 02:46

    It looks like it's one way only.

    • Bonesaw321 on 19/02/2025 - 03:02

      Ohh, We can’t just jump on the return ride back?

      • bob19 on 19/02/2025 - 05:14

        The time table they published is one way only.

    • 1st-Amendment on 19/02/2025 - 08:09

      It's a commuter service. Commuters usually don't usually need to come back for another 8 hours.

  • Bonesaw321 on 19/02/2025 - 03:03

    Thanks op, gonna do it

  • sunday9987 on 19/02/2025 - 08:11

    Pity it's only Wed and Thu in Brisbane :(

    Edit - spelling

  • 1st-Amendment on 19/02/2025 - 08:18

    giving commuters a faster

    It takes 20 minutes, the same as the Manly Fast Ferry.

    and more efficient way

    Less passenger capacity means less efficient.

    But marketing was never know for being honest.

  • Miso on 19/02/2025 - 08:53

    Thanks for the $0.50!

  • Ham Dragon on 19/02/2025 - 10:15

    The Brisbane times are a complete joke. 30 minutes from HSW to New Farm Park? You can just about walk there quicker. Same goes for West End to North Quay…the CityCat takes 19 minutes including 2 stops en route. Massive own goal by Samsung, as this is absolutely not quicker!

      The schedule is indicative at best, the Samsung boat today came 30 mins early/late than advertised (8 am and 9 am instead of 7.10 am and 8.30 am). I waited 10 mins around the published departure time then left with a Citycat. People with jobs can't afford to wait 30-40 mins for a 20 min boat ride.

  • amorn on 19/02/2025 - 10:28

    For anyone wondering, I took it this morning from West End. 7.10 one left at 8ish after changing location and with only four people. They engage you 100% and dont give much time to enjoy the ride or drink/eat. So it was time to get off before I knew it :)

    • Fasian on 19/02/2025 - 10:44

      What do you mean by they engage you 100% and most importantly. Any freebies? (apart from food and drink)

      • amorn on 19/02/2025 - 17:15
        +1

        Just talk to you about S25 nonstop. No freebies.

    • Csadeev on 19/02/2025 - 12:32

      I was waiting for the 8.30 departure at West End too, the boat was nowhere near at sight, so I decided to leave with a citycat. From the ferry, I saw the Samsung boat, it seemed pretty empty, it was probably only a few people onboard. Not sure if I should try to take it tomorrow at 8 am or 9 am or just leave it. Is there any benefit of taking their boat other than the 50c saved on public transport fares?

      • Fasian on 19/02/2025 - 12:33

        I mean if its convenient for you, no harm right.

        • Ham Dragon on 19/02/2025 - 12:38

          Not sure how many commuters will find a service that takes longer convenient. Maybe they should have done this on a weekend & done a set cruise along the river.

          • Fasian on 19/02/2025 - 12:45

            @Ham Dragon: Only benefit I see is, free food + potential chance of a new phone

    • floxyz on 19/02/2025 - 15:59

      Did u get a glimpse of the food? What's for breakfast?

      • amorn on 19/02/2025 - 17:17

        Some juice, coffee and boxed bakery.

        • Fasian on 19/02/2025 - 17:44

          Was it good baked goods at least, what about the overall experience on board.

          edit - I just saw your reply above.

        • floxyz on 20/02/2025 - 08:10

          Thank you! Good to know

  • CherryOZ on 19/02/2025 - 20:21

    Is the breakfast always available??
