Well if its the same staff running them I can't see it working out well.
When we used them they were either late or on strike, no wonder they went bump.

Is it me or have Tunnel prices come down a lot recently? We've got a couple of trips booked at around £110 return, used to be about that one way.

They are hoping to restart services from as early as July according to La Voix Du Nord

I also hear from the grapevine that Eurotunnel wanted to have the ships as a back up for the tunnel and freight :wink: :wink: and DFDS are not best pleased

The other scenario in this deal was to dock back in Boulogne to reopen that crossing, but they are back Dover - Calais ....
