Rosslare to Dunkirk

· Posted: 05.08.2022 · #1

An article that appeared in yesterday's Wexford People newspaper. Could be a nice little 24 hour cruise for anybody wishing to go to northern Europe.

That's a welcome new route

EDIT: tried to get a quote but only online contact form for freight only, .....hopefully they sort out the booking process

Amanda priced it, one way it was MH and cabin over €600 but you can’t take pets.

That’s crazy, both in pricing and pet policy.

Would it be that much worse than the alternatives if you want to visit Holland or Germany. Ferry to Cherbourg and long road trip or landbridge ?

I agree if you don’t have a pet and you want to save 500km of extra driving from Cherbourg and if you are heading to Holland, Belgium or Germany it’s a nice alternative. Crossing time leave at midnight ish and arrives at midnight as well. That puts me off though.

All booking via a contact form!! It needs to improve its offering and booking system for me though.

Think they need to correct a lot of stuff to attract potential non freight customers,

Sort the booking process out
Allow pets
Leave at midday and not midnight
drop the flipping price

They take passengers and pet's on other routes so I don't see what their problem is

It's a freight boat, that's the difference.
