Shipping and Passenger Rates

This is all very rough, in practice most prices tend to center around the 35/gp per ton or so a month in a “std” SJ aware sphere (most spheres on the Arcane Inner Flow). Many factors can change this; perceived pirate or neogi activity and other hazards, very long distance trips, ect. These are not the prices for chartering a vessel, but rather the prices for renting space aboard a vessel already bound for the port you seek.
