Ferry to France: info required
 
Checking ferry prices for school holiday time and prices are exorbitant.
What's to stop me buying a day return, swanning around France for five days and then buying a day return on the French side?

Sounds straightforward but I bet it ain't.

Nope, it's not.

The ferry companies keep your details, and if any part of a ticket isn't used, they reserve the right to charge you full fare on your credit/debit card at a later date.

If you think they prices are dear, give them a ring and ask if there are any special offers.

I've just booked 10 days from next friday, shareholder's 50% discount, and it's STILL £105 return!

UK: 08705 980 333
0800-2000, Monday-Friday
0800-1830, Saturday, Sunday and Bank Holidays

You should get a Norfolkline ferry for £60 return.

GU5 06 February 2007 06:59 PM

I'd pay cash then.

Try Norfolkline.

Dover - Dunkerque.

Seconded Norfolkline otherwise see ferrysavers that should give you a list of everyone else.

5t.

Used Speedferries last Spring Bank Holiday week, superb, couldn't fault the service, 50 minute crossing as well.

Multijfj 09 February 2007 04:31 PM

When we went to france from dover, it cost £110 return, but that was an anytime ticket so we could ammend it. The ferry was brilliant and it was a smooth ride, that was with P&O.

Winners.

Martin-STI 09 February 2007 05:43 PM

Norfolkline for me to Dunkerque. New ferries as well.

mannyo 09 February 2007 06:17 PM

Another vote for Norfolkline. Used them several times, no issues at all.

Tony MY03WRX 09 February 2007 06:21 PM

Try these we are going Dover Calais last week in Aug, got a 7 day return for £90 on P&O.

P&O direct wanted £160 for the same dates and times.....
