Ferry prices for Easter 2003. As usual we will endeavour to be objective as possible. Remember the Ferry Ticket Agents such as Ferrysavers and Ferryoffers can offer tickets cheaper than the ferry companies.
The table below displays the last price comparison survey of ferries and ferry agents carried out by Eurapart on 11 Feb 03 when a lot of the early deals had expired. These Standard Return fares start at a low £153 for Ferry.co.uk when you register with the site. So this survey reveals Ferry.co.uk to be cheapest on the short Channel crossings.Ferrysavers came up with the best Fast Ferry price of £164 with Hoverspeed and they still retain their crown for offering the cheapest fares on the longer cross channel routes.
Eurotunnel's £257 for a tunnel crossing was the best price obtained on that route.

Comments:
Ferry.co.uk is the bucket shop arm of P&O all crossings are on P&O Ships. Ferrysavers was furthest away from our preffered crossing times of 08h00 0ut and 17h00 back, but did give the largest number of alternative crossings to consider.
Useful when finding the most suitable cheap fare. All of the booking engines were slicker and easier to operate than last year. Many will ask you for your car make and model only to provide drop down menus without the latest models such as the Citroen C3.
