As of April 2025, 2GO Travel operates a total of eight passenger ships. All of their vessels are registered in Manila.
The company's flagship is currently the MV 2GO Masagana, one of the largest vessels ever to sail in the Philippines.
2GO Travel's fleet includes two series of ships:
The S Series ships are gradually being phased out as part of 2GO's fleet modernization program, which is expected to be completed by the second quarter of 2025.
This list excludes the cargo vessels, which are operated by its sister company, 2GO Freight.
Ships that was once part of the fleet of 2GO Travel that were either scrapped, sunk, or sold for various reasons.
2012-2018
The first logo consists of bold, stylized text. The letter "G" is stylized to resemble an arrow. The large "2GO" is written in magenta, while the word "TRAVEL" appears in a smaller, handwritten-style font below it, also in magenta.
2018–present
2GO revised its logo to a much simple and cleaner design. The word "TRAVEL" is placed below the "2GO" portion in all capital letters, in a slightly smaller font but still bold and magenta.
2018–present (secondary logo)
This secondary 2GO Travel logo is still identical to the primary logo but the "TRAVEL" text seen in the primary version is removed.
2GO's livery has undergone many changes throughout its history. Despite the differences in the design, all of their ships were predominantly painted with their company colors: white and magenta.
2012–2019
Their first livery is composed of an all-white color dominating the ship with the funnel and the waterline painted with magenta. The sides of the hull featured the "2GO Travel" branding as well as the then company's signature logo, a large stylized letter "G" painted near the bow and to the funnel. The decks were painted light blue.
A special version of this livery was briefly used on one of their vessel, MV "St. Ignatius of Loyola". This special livery features a wave-like shape on the bow and on the stern, with several shapes of birds, ball, star, and maskara and is added to the bow, also with the stern section featuring the phrase "Sarap Maglakbay! (traveling is fun!)". It was called the Boracay Funship Livery
2019–present (S Series)
2GO revised its livery during this time to a much cleaner and simpler design. Although similar to its previous livery with the ships featuring an all-white livery dominating the hull and the superstructure, this time the funnel which is previously painted with magenta, is now painted in white. The "2GO Travel" branding which is previously seen on the hull was revised to feature only the word "2GO" and is now painted also to the funnel. The large letter "G" at the bow was removed making the livery much simpler. The waterline and the deck retained their original colors.
In 2023, a new version of this livery was unveiled, it is still identical with the old livery except for the addition of a large wave-like figure in the bow and stern mimicking the 2021 livery used by the newer 2GO ships. It was applied on the S Series vessels of 2GO.
This livery is currently used on all of The S Series vessels.
2021–present (M Series)
A new livery was unveiled in 2021 with the introduction of 2GO Maligaya, and later, 2GO Masagana. The livery was overhauled giving the ships a much modern and festive appearance. Although still dominated with white and magenta colors, the livery features several colorful shapes scattered around the vessel representing 2GO's brand identity, core pillars, and values. The bow features a large wave-like figure painted in magenta with white stripes, with vessels' names in a new font, painted in different colors akin to a rainbow. The future vessels will be painted with this version of livery.
On June 15, 2013, MV St. Gregory the Great, bound from Iloilo to Bacolod and Cagayan de Oro allegedly took a wrong shortcut and was involved in a grounding incident off Siete Pecados Islands near Iloilo and Guimaras, damaging its hull and flooding its engine room with seawater. All 364 passengers onboard safely disembarked.
On August 16, 2013, at 9 pm as it approached Cebu City's harbor, MV St. Thomas Aquinas, collided with the cargo ship MV Sulpicio Express Siete of Philippine Span Asia Carrier Corporation and sank in 100 feet deep off Talisay, Cebu. The ship was carrying 831 people—715 passengers and 116 crewmembers. 629 people were rescued immediately and as of August 17, 2013, 31 bodies have been recovered leaving 172 unaccounted for. MV Sulpicio Express Siete with 36 crew members on board did not sink and returned safely to port. It had a large hole in its bow above the water line, clearly visible in news photos.
On August 7, 2021, MV St. Anthony de Padua was undergoing quarantine in Bauan, Batangas after 28 of the 82 crew members aboard tested positive for the coronavirus disease 2019. There were no known passengers on board the said vessel. The Maritime Industry Authority (MARINA) in Calabarzon suspended the vessel's passenger safety certificate, and Transport Secretary Arthur Tugade tasked MARINA, the Philippine Ports Authority (PPA), and the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) to investigate possible lapses leading to the incident.
On June 8, 2024, MV St Francis Xavier experienced engine trouble while departing Coron and bound to Puerto Princesa. During its undocking maneuver, the vessel lost all power and was left dead in the water so the crew anchored the ship to prevent it from drifting. While engineers worked on restoring power, the vessel's stern ran aground in a shallow area near the pier due to low tide. The power was restored at 10PM, but the ship remained immobilized as the stern was still grounded. All passengers were safely disembarked. There are no signs of leakage or oil spills around the vessel. On June 9, MV St. Francis Xavier returned to the port of Coron for a thorough assessment and later continued its voyage.
