In what their Sales Manager Declan Mescall calls “a competitive response to the airline sector” the new peak season €139 fare operative until end-August is applicable on Monday to Thursday sailings on their Rosslare-Pembroke route.
Other low fares are also available for weekend and Dublin-Holyhead departures.
A 5-day mid week fare from €279 for a car plus 2 adults, with a kids go free offer is also available.
