Title: Multiple Channel Crossings
Post by: Kev_mk3 on May 30, 2016, 03:23:12 pm
Just wondering if you knowledgeable guys know of a more cost affective way of crossing the channel as I have a few more trips to book and thought I would see about reducing costs.
I have already booked Junes trip (naturally) but I've July and September to book yet and 1 way back for my mum (TBC on date) I generally get the early as in 5am ferry out and mid - late afternoon ferry home but didn't know If I can get multi trip discount and if so is it worth it?
After your pearls of wisdom

Used to be some discounts for shareholders in ferry companies but I can't say whether that's still true or whether it's worthwhile.

Brittany, Chunnel and I believe P&O other frequent traveller options.
However frequent = 10 single trips.

I am a member of Brittany Ferries club voyage and it pays handsomely. from memory it is about £70 per annum yet you get a reduction of 30% on each trip plus free breakfasts in the restaurant. I've just booked for my daughter to come (I had added her as a member on my card for £25) and saved £120 on the one crossing. I make about five crossings a year and save £500or thereabouts.

Registration is £70, plus yearly £70 = £140 for the first year.
My crossing was about £400, so I would not quite get my money back on one trip (£120?), but with two or more, it looks great!

DFDS do a carnet, multiple single crossings. Worth chatting to them
