2021 Ferry Prices.

Thanks Rufs, just been back on to BF site and made a booking for April 2021 Portsmouth to Bilbao it took the discount off no problem this time.

I've changed the sailing times from mid day to 17.00 dropped the cost by £120 and as its Spring time it will be light nights so getting to a campsite shouldn't be a problem. Just need to find one now near to Bilbao 

Fingers and everything crossed we get there this time.

Thanks David, if we were still on the midday I probably would just head for Burgos area.

The teatime ferry doesn't dock until 17.30 so if we allow an hour to disembark, we are looking at El Roble Verde its just a bit north of Haro about 30 - 60 mins drive away. 

EDIT: notice that it had changed days David, we are now going on a Monday rather than Wednesday but as the sailing is later in the day it means we can stop further back up the road from Portsmouth. 

Tammy and David just out of interest did you compare prices with those of the club

Same here Harry, the Bilbao crossing for us, using a friends code works out less than using the club. Using BF you get the 3 options and for us the Flexi works out best as we can amend the booking online with no cost. 

This year it has proved to be much better as we have been able to keep moving the dates and crossings around without having to contact anyone. BF were very quick to get in touch with us when the ferry crossing was cancelled back in April. 

If we are using the Plymouth to Roscoff route then usually the club works out better. 

If we are using the Plymouth to Roscoff route then usually the club works out better.

And being in Cornwall and only 35 miles from Plymouth, long may that continue!

Our proposed trip this year was a return Plymouth to Roscoff overnight, in an inside 2 berth cabin, with 4 site vouchers costing £320.

Same details next year is £400 but move to the day crossing and it’s £531.

We will be more than happy with the £400 club price, rather than the £658 BF price.

But I am getting completely conflicting results !

Plymouth - Roscoff 14 May - 23 May 2021 two adults plus car when we go to a holiday house - so no caravan this time, and daytime crossings so no cabins needed.

CMC price £342 return

BF price £253 return (and if I borrow a friend's code £228 return)

Both are non Flexi tickets as I think that's the only sort CMC sells.

My findings are even worse than yours albeit a different route.

Just looking at BF ferry prices for next year and it's a headache/

Portsmouth - Caen return, car, 7m van and 2 adults. No add ons. May 24th out 14.45 £219. Return, June 23rd back at 14.00 (No morning sailing) £234 so total should equal £453 but in the summary it shows the return price as £272 giving a total cost of £491 Odd!

Club price same times etc. Total price a whopping £589 That I believe is an increase of approx £300 over this year

How can the club explain the massive difference over that of the operator.

I haven't factored in night vouchers as I have just done a like for like price.
