With the developing volcanic ash cloud situation potentially causing on going restrictions and cancellations of flights from and to the UK in the days ahead, over the May Bank Holiday weekend and next week’s half term holidays, the demand for ferry travel alternatives will be significantly increased.

Ferry operator LD Lines confirms that there is currently foot passenger space available on outward and inbound Portsmouth – Le Havre and Newhaven – Dieppe cross channel services and additionally vehicle space, although this is limited on certain sailings.
