Mags, the Italy - Greece 2012 ferry timetables 'should' start appearing on websites around December time but we are talking about Greece here , I usually start looking around for prices then.
Re the Go Box, it would probably be better to go down through Switzerland into Italy instead, its a much cheaper option with their Heavy vehicle tax form that you fill in at the border. Unless of course you have a specific reason for going via Austria.
1 For timetables I find that Danae are as good a source as any - although they are a ferry operator there travel section covers all lines and the site is easy to use.
2 Closer to departure date/time I find that checking for weather/strike delays with the Port Police at the particular port is more reliable than the agent, because the police know when they have to put down the phone/coffee to meet the ferry! Or get the number of Operations office of the ferry line.
One relaxing thing about travelling by MH is that if the plans are interrupted for any reason one can just park up and wait, or go to the beach for another day. Simples!
hi, thanks for that info,thought i was not working the site correctly,its only to get a rough idea of costs,ferry times and length of journey,as i,ve said before,bernand will drive anywhere,sort anything out on the van,he,s just fitted a big fridge freezer,instead of the little one we had,and you cant tell he nearly demolished the inside to fit it,it,s perfect.but.....he dosent like surprises,so i,ve always got plan A,plan B,and if all else fails wing it,but i dont tell him i,m winging it..........
why i fancied austria,we would be going home that way,i think,and i,ve never seen veinna, and it,s on my list of would love to visit,i.ve looked at going round,and i,m as tight as they come,but sometimes to go somewhere special you have to put your money where your mouth is, it,s hard for me,born in yorkshire,brought up in lancashire, you never spend aught if you can avoid it.

Have a look at http://www.ferries.gr/ it's a very good site having most of the ferry lines on it.
Be very careful if you book in advance in winter time as the ferry company's carry out schedule servicing, often sailings are also disrupted due to bad weather.
We never book in advance just check the schedules and turn up at the port and take what's on offer.
