been looking at ferry prices from newcastle and from hull.

From hull they are around 300 quid return with a 2 berth cabin for the night, and thats with 1 car and 2 people in it.

Driving down there last time it took me a tank and a bit from newcastle to dove so the prices for that are roughly the same i say as getting the ferry and we dont have to arrange any where to spend a night down in dover, and can have a party on the ferry

Im going to ring a few companys over the next few days to see if it will go down more than the website.

Gaz, if you are coming along would you have any passengers? Im going to see if a block booking will be cheaper.

Who else would be interested in the ferry from Hull?

Hi Guys ***FERRY INFO***

Ok, I've just called P&O Ferries for a quote to get us from Hull to Rotterdam.

The quote was based on the info i have already based on people showing a solid interest on this and the confirmed thread.

I was quoted with 6 Cars, 8 People, sharing 2 4 Berth cabins on the crossings, a total price of £944.
Thats an amazing £118 Each RETURN Hull to Rotterdam!!

The people confirmed and showing a solid interest so far is:

ME +1
scottyboy +1
Philly C
Delly
Gaz911 +1

I have 24 hours to confirm this before its no longer guarenteed but shouldnt go up or down that much hopefully in the next week or so.
