2021 - Don't get too excited
Discussion
With situation in August unclear, low vaccine rate in France, quarantining in place at time of buying tickets, rubbish ferry options locally.... seals it for not attending this year. Sad but resigned to it.
Will allow vouchers to refund. Perhaps look at things closer to the race if situation different and still able to buy tickets.
2022 going to be good if back to normal.
Edit 28/05/21.... Ferry cancelled and refunded.

I've just applied for the refund option via the email Brittany ferries sent today after the Portsmouth - Caen/Ouistreham
on the 10th June 2021 was cancelled by them . I used the last year voucher to rebook this year but part of the group can't even make the August date even if it did go ahead this year , so i'm glad i didn't amend it now to August, Think we'll wait until 2023 now .

I got the email cancelation also this morning, I'll call them in a few days and see if I can get another voucher as I'm still keeping fingers crossed for August.on the 10th June 2021 was cancelled by them .

My view is this; if I can get a couple of tickets for this year I will and risk the fact I can’t make it due to travel restrictions. If I can’t get tickets but can travel I will still go and watch from the areas one can. If I can’t get tickets and I can’t travel reasonably I’ll sulk like mad! I have cold turkey from missing my annual track to France

The Times is reporting that the French gov is to allow fully vaccinated travellers from the UK to enter France from next week...
Which is true, but as France is on our Amber list it would mean you could only go there for 'essential reasons'.. Just hope it can get on the Green list soon otherwise LM2021 may well go the same way as 2020 for UK residents. eps said:

Rubbish. There is nothing stopping you from going to any country in the world for no other reason than you want to. It's the ridiculous hoops you have to jump through if you want to return to the UK is the problem.

Well that’s the 1st June gone. Has anyone had the credit card refunded yet? Credit note was supposed to last until the 1st - then auto refund. I’ve not seen my money back yet.
Nothing as yet. I am under the impression from previous correspondence that it should be automatic. Will keep an eye on it.LM240 said:

I think you forgot the time difference
In these provincial towns, its about a decade - I think they call it "Temps de l'île de Wight" I've asked for my ferry to be moved to next year, as I can't leave the UK or enter France at the moment. I didn't move it to August as the spectator part is uncertain, but I may not be able to postpone it again if travel is permitted
