The boat you travelled was the largest in the world when built T

Pay the extra for VIP lounge, so worth it

[@chaitalikorpe3405]

Sounds like this is more fun than a flight .❤

Lol it wasn't bad, thanks for watching and commenting James

[@lukeybabey1977]

I messaged you before you left, we went a few days before you in July. I'm glad we took the kids out of school 2 days early, saw the queues you faced on the news, we got through the checks in about 30 minutes from arrival at the port

Hiya, I remember. I'm glad you had a great time. I remember before Darcie-May started school, we used to go at the end of July. The crossing was easier and so much cheaper

[@lukeybabey1977]

@@CaravanEscapades101 a bonus we found with Irish ferries, was that we saved £200 over p&o as they accepted a trailer tent as a trailer. They accepted the dimensions and didn't just automatically assign it as a caravan

Does this boat have a view of the bow during the crossing? What was the name of the ferry? Thanks for the vlog !

[@CaravanEscapades101]

Hi It does from the very top if I remember correctly. There is an Indoor View a lot closer in like the rear conservatory area. the boat was called Isle of Inishmore. I hope that helps. James

We miss this ship on the Rosslare to Pembroke route. There has been a significant downgrade since it left. When it was built, it was the largest passenger ferry in the world. Interesting that its now considered small.

Thanks for the Info, How times are have changed, We are booked with Irish Ferries again next month, I will report back on the crossing.

@CaravanEscapades101 that's lovely, enjoy your trip. I really enjoyed your video. I'm traceling with Stena on Monday to Fishguard.

Was the van in front of you when you embarked stolen? No number plate.

[@CaravanEscapades101]

You Know I didn't notice that, I had to look back at the Vlog. It could well have been. Thanks for watching. James

[@doversquidy]

not the bridge its a lounge plus its a ship not a boat

[@rogerburn21]

Sorry but I will tell people to move there feet if no room for my family

[@CaravanEscapades101]

I guess your right. We should be a bit more assertive when all said and done. Thanks for watching & Happy Camping. James
