Cancelled ferry - Nasher - 21-08-2023 So, I left home at 05:00 on Saturday to catch the ferry from Liverpool A short while after 06:00 I was notified of a text, pulled into a lay-by to read it and was informed that my ferry had been cancelled (a couple of minutes latter a friend who lives on the Island texted me the same information) Used my phone to reschedule the ferry, earliest sailing is the 02:00 from Heysham on Thursday 5 days of my trip lost (and 100 mile drive wasted) - gutted At least I should get to see all the racing I'm sure there were lots of others affected by storm Betty - sympathies to all I've been going to the island since 1976 and never had a ferry cancelled before, so I've probably been lucky in the past RE: Cancelled ferry - Chris_Sav - 21-08-2023 I cannot understand why Steam Packet have not slotted an extra sailing when they have two full size ships available! RE: Cancelled ferry - Nasher - 21-08-2023 Well, the Steam Packet must have read your post...... I've check bookings again and managed to re-book for 14:00 tomorrow from Heysham on the Manxman - Yay!! Just repacking the motorhome (think I'd better re-iron my pulling pants) |
