Channel crossings

[Howard]

I am looking to book our channel crossing and was interested to check what others are doing.

The prices I have come up with for departing / returning to Dover/Folkestone are shown below:-

Chunnel £289

Irish Ferries £175

DFDS (Calais outbound / Dunkirk inbound) £172

P&O £202

Currently its a toss up between DFDS & Irish Ferries

A few of us are doing newhaven-dieppe 09.30 out and DFDS dunkirk/dover 16.00 return

Total cost was £214, and yes, a 4hr crossing out, but dieppe to rouen is only an hour, and better still newhaven is 30 mins from home. So saves us about 2 1/2hrs driving time (on the basis we will be doing plenty the following few days)

Dover - Calais on P&O. Out 2 Sept 10am, back 8 Sept 17.20pm £165.

Would like to have gone over via Harwich - Hoek but the costs are now prohibitive.

I just booked this one as well.

Booked Portsmouth to Le Havre 11:30am. Cost £128.

A six hour crossing (yes 6! 😳) but coming from the west country will save around 3.5 hours driving.

Return via Chunnel at 14:50. Cost £139.

We are booked on the overnight Portsmouth- Caen ferry. Back via the Channel Tunnel.
