Ferry Prices OMG!

Last January Stena offering £10 foot passenger fares between NI/Ireland & Britain. I didn't book at the time and was waiting to see if they offered it again this year but after seeing the price hikes, I doubt they'll be doing anything for a tenner.

This year they're offering free travel for Irish tenors, anyone who can sing 'oh danny boy' in full travels for nothing.

I live 12 miles from Harwich and go to NL and Belgium 2 or 3x per year on the ferry with my bike. This year prices have increased quite a bit, however if you take a risk and wait until about 1 month before you want to travel, prices come down a little.

That's useful to know, thanks.
Is midweek cheaper than weekends, do you know?

Prices do vary depending on the day of travel. Last year on one trip the outward sailing on tuesday evening was 15 quid less than weds evening's outward price.

With Holyhead out of action until the end of March, they can keep an special offers away from the travelling public.

Eurostar have deals on at the moment. Or consider an interrail ticket. I can get from North Yorkshire to Cologne in a day.

My daughter and granddaughter travelled from Lille to London in less time than it took me to travel from home in Poole to visit a friend in Bournemouth hospital using the local buses...

Prior to retirement my Dad could get from home outside Ashford to his office in Paris more quickly than he could get to his old office at Canary Wharf.

Just shy of 800 quid to get a straight line out of Hull is worth every penny.
