Ekaterini P. on its way to Naxos

The Mykonos - Naxos route is mainly operated by high-speed vessels. In addition, a conventional ferry also operates the routes once a day during the high season.
Conventional ferries are larger and can carry much more passengers and vehicles. Their tickets are more affordable.
On the other hand, high-speed ferries are smaller; hence they move faster and need less time to go from one place to another.
Note that they are affected by windy weather (which means frequent delays), their tickets are more pricey, and some do not have a garage for vehicle transporation.

Seats in the World Champion Jet by Seajets

The most common seat type is the standard seat, which is suitable for economy traveling. In conventional ferries, the standard seats are not numbered, and you will have to board the ship in time to find one in a lounge you like or on the deck. You will be responsible for keeping your seat during the whole trip.
Numbered seats are air-type seats located in a separate and quieter lounge. Those seats are reserved throughout the trip.
Lastly, the business or VIP seats are the most expensive, as they are located in a luxury lounge. They are the most comfortable option, too.
Note that high-speed vessels only boast numbered seats, so booking a standard (economy) seat in such a ferry comes with a numbered seat.
