With kick-off set for this Saturday, 17th August, the ferry operator is rolling out a range of autumn and winter fares and deals on its Ireland to UK routes. The keynote offer sees day trips by coach, inclusive of match ticket and return ferry travel from €169 per person return. For fans seeking an extended stay, one night’s hotel accommodation, coach, return ferry travel and match ticket starts at €209 per person.
Tailored to suit a family of fans, Irish Ferries is offering return ferry crossing for a car, two adults and two children from €245, while return ship and rail fares to Manchester or Liverpool start at €90 per person.
