I suppose it was to be expected but P&O are ramping up their prices.  We had a June/July crossing cancelled that cost £200, we have a credit note that we could use against a September crossing that is now circa £350.  Actually cheaper to go on the Eurotunnel and save the credit note for next year.

    Its not only the ferries who’ve increased their prices. Eurotunnel have increased them too. For an equivalent day/time in August its approx 70% higher than last year.

    From memory Autumn prices have always been a bit more expensive, certainly on the Hull routes.  I think we can expect everything to be going up in price even a visit to the hairdresser is going to cost more laughing

    As travel restrictions likely to be lifted this week they are making up for lost ground, supply and demand!

    Looked at Eurotunnel and they are £270+ for late august out and mid september return.

    Dunno what you are doing to get the Tunnel prices you are coming up with. Just checked for the normal times I travel for September, out at 1420on a Monday and  back 3 weeks later at 0920 for a motorhome over 8m and its £212, £5 more than when I last travelled in 2018!

    Now if only I could persuade the wife!

    Yeh have done all that a few times but after a couple of heavy crossings which we considered not good for the dog, we decided to do the shorter crossings into France, much better for dog he can sleep in boot, did Cherbourg last year but thought we would give Caerns a go this year, especially as we only live 30 mins from the port in Portsmouth, might come back via Cherbourg depending how long we stay down in Spain, quite like the drive cool
