Before
booking your ferry...
Before booking a ferry trip to France or another European port, make
sure that you have found the best buy. The best buy is not necessarily
the cheapest - though this is often a major consideration. And be
warned: websites that boldly announce "cheap ferries"
mostly offer exactly
the same prices as the ferry companies themselves, but
sometimes without
the special offers. And some so-called "cheap ferry" websites actually charge more than
the ferry companies for the same journey. So if you really want to use
a cheap ferries site to book your journey, check that the
"amazing offer" really is as cheap as it makes out to be ! Click for more details on the cheap ferry scam.
Before booking a ferry, there are a
lot of criteria that you may like to take into account, and each
traveller will prioritize these criteria according to his own needs and
preferences. here is a short checklist:
- The price
- The route; which
route is best for your destination?
- The duration of
the crossing; a short crossing may get you over faster, but a longer
crossing can offer your time to take a needed rest in the middle of a
long journey.
- The
onboard service; what is offered, what do you want?
- The terms and conditions; what happens if you miss your
ferry?
