About the Andaman Wave Master (AWM)

The Andaman Wave Master, often listed under the code AWM SMV, is a passenger ferry vessel operating in the Andaman Islands. It is one of several ships used to connect Port Blair with the archipelago's popular island destinations, offering travelers a practical way to island-hop without flying.

Route and Destinations Served

Ferries such as the Andaman Wave Master typically link Port Blair with islands including Havelock and Neil, which are the main gateways to the region's beaches and diving sites. Exact departure ports, stops, and days of operation can vary by sailing, so always check the specific schedule shown at booking before finalizing your travel plans. If you are also comparing options for other legs of your Andaman trip, see our Andaman Islands ferry routes overview for connecting sailings.

Onboard Comfort

Like other vessels serving these inter-island routes, seating on the Andaman Wave Master is generally organized into different classes, allowing travelers to choose an option that fits their budget and comfort preferences. Specific class names, seat configurations, and amenities for this vessel are confirmed at the time of booking.

Booking Andaman Wave Master Tickets

When booking a ferry such as the AWM, you will usually need to provide passenger details and a valid photo ID, as inter-island ferry travel in the Andaman Islands is subject to identity verification. Ticket prices, exact timings, and the operator running a given sailing can change based on demand and season, so these details are best confirmed during the booking process rather than assumed in advance.

Planning Your Andaman Ferry Journey

Because island ferry capacity can be limited, especially during peak travel months, it is worth checking availability on the Andaman Wave Master and alternative sailings well ahead of your trip. Comparing departure times and vessels helps you fit ferry travel around your wider itinerary across the islands.

Frequently asked questions

How do I unlock my account now?

Wait, and try again. Every lock lifts on its own — a minute the first time, and never more than an hour however many attempts have failed. There is nothing to click and nobody to contact.

If you have forgotten your password, do not keep guessing: each wrong attempt makes the next wait longer. Use Forgot password instead. Resetting your password gets you straight back in.

My account locked but I never tried to sign in

Then someone else was trying to sign in as you, and the lock did its job — it stopped them.

Your account is safe: a lock means the attempts failed. Nobody got in. You do not have to do anything, and the lock will lift on its own.

We would still recommend two things:

  • Change your password, especially if you use the same one on another website.
  • Add an authenticator app in your account security settings, so a password alone is never enough to sign in as you.

If you get these repeatedly, contact us and we will look into it.

What is the difference between a locked and a blocked account?

Locked is automatic and temporary. It happens after repeated failed sign-in attempts and it lifts by itself — within a minute in most cases.

Blocked is a decision made by our team, and it does not lift on its own. If your account is blocked you will need to contact us; waiting will not change it, and neither will resetting your password.

If you are not sure which applies to you, get in touch and we will tell you.

Why is my account locked?

We lock an account for a short time after several failed sign-in attempts in a row. It is an automatic safety measure: it stops someone else guessing your password, and it happens whether or not the person typing was you.

You do not need to contact us. The lock lifts on its own — see How long am I locked out for?

How long am I locked out for?

The first lock is one minute. If sign-in keeps failing after that, each further lock lasts longer:

  • 1st lock — 1 minute
  • 2nd lock — 5 minutes
  • 3rd lock — 15 minutes
  • 4th lock and after — 1 hour

An hour is the longest you will ever be locked out. You get five attempts before the first lock, and as soon as you sign in successfully everything resets — the next time you mistype, you start again at one minute.

How can I get transportation to the Pier (Phuket) from the airport?

You can pick up a taxi from the airport just outside Phuket airport terminal, though please be informed it is a busy place! 

 

Alternatively, you can organize your transfer through us on step 2 of your ferry booking process. The prices are very reasonable. For up to 3 people we have private taxis and for groups of 4-8 people, we can arrange a minivan pick-up service.
