Hoping to book a ferry going out early January and back early March.
Norfolk line seem to be increasing there prices. However, going to Ramsgate is a bit too far. Dover is bad enough from Devon.

Any ideas please?

Saw on the news this morning that although fuel prices have gone down, ferry and plane operators have no intention of removing their fuel surcharges and, in fact, some are going to increase them!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Grouch

We are going away for a few days between Xmas & New Year. As you have said Norfolk Line prices are going through the roof, £160 return, they have to pay for their new ships somehow. P&O were not much better, Transeuropa are not giving their discounted rates during this period, £32 return in November is now £64 between Xmas and New Year. The best deal was with SeaFrance, out mid day Wednesday back late Saturday afternoon for £61.

Thanks for info.

When I last looked Sea France had not published their crossings for January. However, I will definitely bear them in mind.

Thanks for your help.

Yesterday booked with Sea France. £26 each way.

Have in the past always supported Norfolk Line as they have been paramount in reducing ferry prices. However, they now seem to have gone bananas. Perhaps if they lose custom next year they will reduce their prices again and become more competitive.
