The ferry<\/a>, which will operate for 24 games throughout season, will make its maiden voyage April 25 for the team’s\u00a0matchup against the\u00a0Colorado Rockies.<\/p>\n

Each ride will take approximately 75 minutes one way and cost voyagers either $80 or $85 round-trip. The boats \u2014 operated by ferry company Seastreak \u2014 will leave from Stamford’s ferry terminal and dock at the World\u2019s Fair Marina, the Mets said.<\/p>\n

The ferry service also allows fans to pay between $140 and $334, depending on the game, to add a\u00a0ballgame ticket onto their boat fare.<\/p>\n

Seastreak did not immediately respond to CT Insider’s request for comment on ticket sales for the ferry’s first weekend embarking from Connecticut.<\/p>\n

The dozen consecutive losses marked the Mets’ longest losing streak since 2002, according to the\u00a0MLB. The Mets’ longest losing streak<\/a> in franchise history was 17 games during the 1962 season.<\/p>\n

Currently, the Mets rank eighth in the MLB for game attendance<\/a> so far in 2026. An average of 36,423 fans have attended the 2026 Mets’ home games at Citi Field, according to ESPN.<\/p>\n

In 2025, the team ranked fifth in the MLB for game attendance, with an average of 39,775 fans attending its home games throughout the season.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, Greenwich resident and Mets owner Steve Cohen<\/a> shared a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, commenting on the amount of “no shows”<\/a> from a free ticket offer the Mets provided to fans.<\/p>\n

The team offered fans complimentary tickets to the\u00a0Mets’ matchup against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Cohen said in his post that despite the free ticket giveaway being “fully subscribed within hours,” 58% of fans who received free tickets did not show up even with the ticket offer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The ferry, which will operate for 24 games throughout season, will make its maiden voyage April 25 for…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":207159,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[36184,9,24,55,54,56],"class_list":["post-207158","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york-city","tag-all-ct-sites","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-new-york-city-headlines","tag-new-york-city-news","tag-ny"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207158","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=207158"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207158\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/207159"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=207158"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=207158"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=207158"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
