“My Ferry Link”

Well Folks the new Dover/Calais service “My Ferry Link” is sort of up and running …..

I thought they would have some offers to tempt us …… NO such luck I’m afraid ……..

As the other Ferry Companies want the Monopolies Commission to look into this “Set-up” (owned by Eurotunnel) and knowing the French Crews outdated ideas on “Striking” ….. Don’t hold your breath !!

DFDS is still the best at £39-00 each way (checked this morning !!)

P&O £44-00 each way (seems to change daily …. Even with so many sailings !! )

I know I’m a well founded member of “The Grumpy Club” ……. As we use to pay arouind £200-00 for our Channel Hopping in the 1980’s (Car & Caravan )

Moan over, have a good day Folks,

Brian

Hi Brian,

" As we use to pay arouind £200-00 for our Channel Hopping in the 1980’s (Car & Caravan )"

Ah, the good old days.

£68 return on DFDS through the Caravan Club leaving 12 September. With the reasonable hope that it will run on time and the crew won't go on strike.........

edited to add - Just managed to find it in Googoo as "myferrylink". The website is still a bit rough around the edges. Probably the ferries are too after being laid up. Never liked Seafrance anyway on the Dover run.

Hi there,

Booked with DFDS direct yesterday for 30th October.

Dover > Dunkirk - one way. "Petal" with trailer and the two of us £45.

I have been sailing backwards and forwards across The Channel for over forty-five years and I consider the DFDS Dover to Dunkirk run to be one of the best "value for money" services on offer in the UK.

Long may it continue.

Best regards,
