Trying to book DFDS for my car not motorhome for February from Newcastle to Amsterdam. Found a site through google with 40% discount, it worked out at £12 more expensive than direct with DFDS website. Found 2 other sites with 10% discount but when you looked into it you only got the discount when you booked a cabin at double the price. Does anyone know a genuine site for proper discount.

Hi darach;

If you're in the Caravan club you can get a 10% discount off the standard fares. They give you a code to submit when booking via the DFDS website. I see no reason why you couldn't use it for a car.

Hi

First plan of attack is to call the operator direct.

Second up, try a high street travel agent.

Thirdly, try some of the discount ferry ticket firms. There are loads about.

www.aferry.to

www.ferrysavers.co.uk

www.ferrytravelclu b.com

I have used the past in the latter.

Make sure that if you book through an agent or a firm like those suggested above, they are members of the regular financial protection agencies etc etc

last time we went to france we did'nt book a ferry until we got to Dover then we got a return ticket for Sea France from Euro Exchange on left hand side as you go towards ferry .
I wonder are they still there as we hope to go to France later in the year.

Thanks again to everybody for all your replies. I still find that all these supposed offers are not genuine.
Caravan Club wont quote for DFDS
A Ferry to quoted £138.60
Ferrysavers.co.uk £138.60
Ferry Travel club.com £132.00 + £6 to join
MCI motorbike club with 10% disc £126.00
DFDS direct £126.00

So where are the 10 and 40% discounts.

Hi

The best discounts are likely to be on off peak crossings etc.

Hi again Derek;

Not sure what your point is Brian.

The 10% is deducted from the standard fare on the DFDS website, not the Caravan Club website.
