Ferry Fortnight 2011 starts on Saturday

National Ferry Fortnight 2011 starts on Saturday and will serve to raise awareness of travel by ferry from the UK.

This will be the third National Ferry Fortnight and the Passenger Shipping Association says that in the last year Britons ferry companies have carried 35 million passengers and eight million cars.

The PSA members which include Stena Line, Brittany Ferries, Wightlink, P&O Ferries, Condor Ferries, DFDS Seaways, Irish Ferries, LD Lines, Red Funnel, Sea France, Isle of Man Steam Packet Company and Hovertravel will all participate.

One of  the most interesting aspects is that there will be many promotional offers available during the event. So if you have yet to book your ferry to the continent this year you might want to take advantage of  National Ferry Fortnight.
