Updated 15.10.2026 · 14:04 Athens time — What changed

Blue Star Ferries’ newer announcement, marked 15 October, 09:30, adds morning cancellations and timetable changes for the following days. That timestamp belongs to the source; it is not confirmation of an actual departure.

Cancelled morning sailings on 15 October

  • BLUE STAR DELOS: Piraeus at 07:25 for Paros–Naxos–Ios–Thira (Santorini), and the return service.
  • THEOLOGOS P.: Piraeus at 07:30 for Syros–Tinos–Mykonos, and the return service.

The company asks passengers on cancelled services to change tickets through the issuing agency. For bookings made directly through its call centre, website or app, it provides +30 210 8919800.

Scheduled evening departures on Crete routes

  • KISSAMOS: Piraeus at 23:00 on 15 October, Milos at 03:35–03:55 and Chania at 08:25 on Friday 16 October.
  • ASTERION II: Piraeus at 22:00 on 15 October for Heraklion, arriving at 07:30 on 16 October.
  • ARIADNI: Heraklion at 22:00 on 15 October for Piraeus, arriving at 07:30 on 16 October.

For those evening sailings the announcement does not require ticket changes, except for passengers affected by an omitted port call. The morning KISSAMOS and ELYROS services on 15 October omit Milos. Serifos is omitted on the listed Heraklion-route services.

NISSOS SAMOS and DIAGORAS timetables for 15–18 October are also modified. BLUE STAR 1 does not call at Syros on 15 October. Check your particular ship and ticket with the operator before travelling to the port; the published schedule does not prove that a ship has sailed.

Update history

Earlier reports follow with their original dates. The update above takes precedence where the timetable has changed; earlier cancellations are not automatically carried forward to today.

The added ARTEMIS changes concern 15 October: its 07:00 Andros–Tinos–Syros sailing is cancelled and tickets must be changed, according to Blue Star Ferries’ official notice (14 October, 15:00).

Departure from Syros for Kythnos–Kea–Lavrio at 10:35 is planned if weather permits, without ticket changes. The Crete departures below are scheduled, not confirmed sailings.

Check before leaving
