JohnD Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 All, I hope that no one here has a job with P&O, either at sea or on land, because the company has signed its own death certificate. It might not even survive long enough to transport you cross-Channel for CLM this summer! P&O's 'new business model' is to pay third world wages to inexperienced replacements for the professional crew who have safely carried you across before. That risk justifies not using P&O ferries, so that your own safety as well as sympathy for the crew justifies a boycott of P&O. If you can, please cancel your P&O booking and choose another operator. Show P&O that you will not accept their brutal attitude to their workforce and the safety of their passengers. John 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorkshire_spam Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Booked on P&O for the 10CR Hull->Rotterdam, trying to work out if we can cancel the tickets and drive down the country to get a DFDS or something instead. Not many alternatives for getting the car to the continent now though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD Posted March 19, 2022 Author Share Posted March 19, 2022 Just booked DFDS Dover-Calais. May not suit you though - I have rellies in't South to break my journey. Considered Newhaven and Portsmouth, but I want to visit Rheims on the way, and it's a LOT further from those. Good luck! John 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good idea, I've had a look but I can't seem to get a return on the 11th. 😞 I'll see if I have any better luck on another website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yorkshire_spam Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I'm going to fight them on the cancellation fee but I don't hold out much hope against a company prepared to act like that. Might even file in the small claims if I don't get anywhere and I have the time/energy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
