Brittany Ferries has revealed a strong rise in forward reservations for 2023 as bookings jump by 38% across all routes connecting Ireland with France and Spain compared with this same period last year.
More than 105,000 reservations have been made, indicating strong demand for the year ahead.
Across the company, Brittany Ferries has seen a 20% increase for all routes which include Ireland, the UK, Spain and France.
Travel to Spain via Brittany Ferries is proving popular for Irish holidaymakers as the company revealed bookings on this route have increased by 69% to nearly 23,000 passengers compared to 2022 figures.
In November, Brittany Ferries unveiled its new luxury cruise ferry the Salamanca, operating between Rosslare Europort and Bilbao in Spain. The Salamanca, which is the first LNG (liquefied natural gas) powered passenger ferry to operate from Ireland, offers significantly increased capacity on the Rosslare-Bilbao route and promises lower emissions and a smoother, quieter voyage for travellers.
Along with the Rosslare Europort to Bilbao route, Brittany Ferries serves three destinations in France between Rosslare Europort and the Port of Cork which include Le Havre, Cherbourg, and Roscoff.
