Hi Guys,
I know it's early, but I've received last chance "Black Friday" deals from Direct Ferries:

https://ssl.directferries.com/ferry/secure/booking...

I'm tempted by the Le Shuttle Tunnel return fare of £129.80,

Departing Folkestone Thurs 07 Jul 2016 @ 13:20
Arr Calais @ 14:55

Returning from Calais Mon 11 Jul 2016 @ 15:50
Arr Folkestone @ 15:25

P&O cheapest price £98 on those dates/ approx times.
DFDS ". ". £89

These tickets are issued on a non-refundable basis, and the offers are finishing tonight.

What does the team think? The clock is ticking......

Normally a great fan of Le Shuttle, but this year we booked the ferry to Dunkirk to avoid all the delays caused by the trouble in Calais. A delay of one day is a big chunk out of the Le Mans trip.

I would expect that 13 months later, the situation would have improved somewhat.

Potless Paul & myself experlenced no delays whatsoever returning from the Eurotour in September this year, via the Tunnel. There are a lot more security fences and measures in place now.

Booked my tickets earlier this week - le shuttle for us this time, £115 which works out at £40 with my TESCO vouchers.

Ferry was coming out about £100 so not worth it this time in my eyes.

See you all in Calais - well probably earlier at Burghley, SCH etc
