Unable to book ferry Hull to Rotterdam for 2025 on Caravan Club site.  If we book on the P & O site would it be much more expensive - we know costs on P & O site.

    I just put in a random  date for this year on Club booking page for that route and it gave me a one way fare of £344 for car plus caravan.  Other dates will vary and your outfit will be different size but the prices for this year are there on the Club page. 2025prices will be announced in due course, but do you really need to book today for next year? Wait till Club Head Office reopens and talk to them after the bank holiday.

    The club usually lag behind the ferry operator timewise in being able to take a booking. It is usually cheaper than booking direct with the ferry operators, but the level of savings vary. The other point to consider is if you go direct and need to change your crossing you are more likely to be able to contact the operator in your time of need and not be charged for the change if you have gone direct.

    As above, I'd wait until after the weekend and get a definitive price.

    As suggested, compare the cancellation and amendment T&Cs of the club and P&O. Cost isn’t the only factor to consider.

    We have often use this ferry crossing and have always found the club prices to be good.

    There is another option you might like to look at and that is the 'Forces Travel' booking site, they also offer very good rates and options for travel.

    If booking BF or the tunnel I get a better rate going direct on most routes.
