Keen on greener cheaper ferries

Keen on greener cheaper ferries
09 August 2008
Source: TBA
ferry travel has been described as a convenient, cost-effective and greener way for holidaymakers to travel abroad.

Derek Moore, chairman of the Association of Independent Tour Operators, said: "Ferry travel is increasingly popular as Britons become more aware of the carbon footprint left by their holidays and look for alternatives to stepping on a plane."

He also pointed to convenience and the price of taking the family abroad by sea as reasons why people are choosing ferries.

These sentiments were echoed by travellers at the Port of Dover as the summer holidays began.

Matt and Sarah Carter were heading to the south of France with their sons, five-year-old William and three-year-old Oliver.

Sarah said: "We find it easier with our little boys to travel by ferry, and it means we can load the car up with everything we need. "We have done it ever since our eldest William was born."
