Flood of Heiniken bookings

Munster’s success in making it through to the final of the Heineken Cup to be played at Millennium Stadium Cardiff on Saturday 24th May has brought about a flood of bookings to ferry companies.

According to figures currently to hand, Irish Ferries expects to carry some 10,000 supporters in the days leading up to the match. At present, sailings on their Rosslare - Pembroke route are already fully booked on the two Friday departures prior to the game. However, considerable capacity still exists on Thursday sailings to Pembroke and on all Dublin/Holyhead sailings.

In addition, with the game not scheduled to commence until 17.00hrs on the Saturday, some fans are opting to travel on the Saturday morning sailing to Pembroke on which space is still available.

Leaving Rosslare at 08.45 hours and arriving Pembroke at 12.30hrs, fans should have ample time to complete the two hours 160kms drive to Cardiff. Fares being offered by Irish Ferries are from 115 euros per person return for a car and four adults.
