Celtic Link Ferries start Portsmouth to Cherbourg ferry route

Following an agreement reached with French company. LD Lines for the vessel "Norman Voyager", Celtic Link Ferries are pleased to announce they will begin operations on the Portsmouth to Cherbourg route this weekend.

The first sailing from Cherbourg to Portsmouth ferry will be at 2330 on Sunday 4th October 2009. The first sailing from Portsmouth to Cherbourg ferry will be at 1500 on Monday 5th October 2009.

The Norman Voyager will be used during the weekdays for Portsmouth to Cherbourg, and then for the weekends Rosslare to Cherbourg. Both routes will be operated by Celtic Link Ferries. The Norman Voyager has capacity for up to 800 passengers, 200 cars and up to 120 freight vehicles. Onboard facilities include 110 cabins, bar, restaurant, lounges and shop.

The Diplomat will be used during the weekdays for Rosslare - Cherbourg, and during the weekends for Portsmouth - Cherbourg. Both routes will be operated by Celtic Link Ferries. In order to encourage customers onto this smaller vessel, all meals for both passenger and freight customers onboard the Diplomat sailings will be FREE.

The Celtic Link Ferries new timetable will be a daily afternoon sailing from Portsmouth (typically 1500), and an overnight sailing from Cherbourg every evening (typically 2330).

Celtic Link Ferries Director of France, Pascal Higuera, comments: "Celtic Link Ferries have been interested in starting on the Portsmouth to Cherbourg route for several years. The opportunity has now come, and we look forward to offering our valued freight customers with an alternative route to/from France as well as offering a new low cost travelling option for tourist passengers wishing to reach Cherbourg from the UK."

"To demostrate our commitment to low fares on the Portsmouth to Cherbourg route, we have created a launch offer of only £49 each way for a Car+driver. But hurry as this fare will only be valid for the first 10 cars on every sailing in 2009!"
