Good info. Lucky me I discovered your website by chance (stumbleupon).

In 1872 the Andaman and Nicobar islands were united under a single chief commissioner at Port Blair.
Andaman, being an island, can be reached in only two ways – By air or by sea. Flights are usually faster, more comfortable and therefore the more preferred option. Ships, though cheaper are general passenger ships. These offer no luxuries and take about 3-4 days to reach Port Blair.
