Application for passage is to be made at the office of the master-attendant in Bombay, and at other ports to the commander.
Passengers are to be divided into two classes, viz.:—
First class, who sit at the commander's table and are entitled to all the privileges of the quarter-deck.
Second-class, who are not entitled to walk aft of the paddle-boxes, who berth forward, and either arrange for their own provision, or mess with the warrant-officers or engineers.
Every passenger of the first class shall pay the following sum, as table-money, for the voyage from Bombay to Suez, or from Suez to Bombay, viz.:—
| A lady or gentleman | Rs. 200 |
| A child ten years of age, and above five years | 100 |
| A child five years and above one | 80 |
| A child one year and under | Free |
| A child under one year and with the mother | 50 |
It is to be understood that, for the above sums, the passengers are to be provided with a plain, substantial table; but no person is entitled to more than one pint of wine and one bottle of beer per diem. Cabin passengers have the first choice of seats at the table, and, after them, the saloon passengers, in preference to those on the deck, whose priority will be arranged according to their standing on the passage-list. The seats will be arranged by the commander, and, once taken, they cannot be changed without his permission during the voyage.
In addition to the table-money, the following sums will be charged for the accommodation engaged by first-class passengers, viz.:—
| A treble cabin | Rs. 1000 |
| A double cabin | 800 |
| A single cabin | 500 |
| A saloon berth | 350 |
| A deck passage | 350 |
