Fast Travel

Fast Travel is a mode of travel in Red Dead Redemption II that allows players to traverse long distances across the map quickly. There are three main ways to fast travel, most of which cost money.

Camp
Players have the option to upgrade Dutch van der Linde's camp, for a price. The gang will do little to help in this regard, so the task falls to players. Upgrade options can be found next to Dutch's tent wherever the caravan ends up.

Players must pay the first $220 upgrade fee before the next tier evens shows up. It is this next tier, at $325, that unlocks the fast travel map, so players will need $545 total. Once purchased, Dutch's fast travel map appears outside the wagon.

Note that destinations Dutch can travel to are entirely dependent upon where he has already been. Due to this, and that it is difficult to raise that amount of money in the early game, players may want to wait until they have traveled to more areas.

Stagecoach
Stagecoaches are another fast travel option, and they can be found in most towns. Unlike using the fast travel map, using a stagecoach requires money. Not only that, but players need to be aware of what their level of honor is for that particular town. If their honor is too low, the stagecoach will be locked.

Bounties on Dutch's head can be cleared right away if players opt to pay them. Honor can also be raised by performing deeds.

Like the fast travel map, Dutch will only be able to travel to destinations he has already visited. Stagecoaches, however, cannot take players back to their camp.

Missions
The last option for fast travel comes at the end of some missions. This only requires completion of the mission and accepting the option to travel. Players can, of course, refuse the option if they have other matters to tend to, but this will prevent them from fast traveling back to their camp.
