10 Reasons to Holiday With Your Car

Why fly when you can drive?

There are so many reasons to bring your own car when you travel with Irish Ferries! We make it easy for you and your family - leaving you more time to relax and enjoy your holiday, from the moment you come aboard. So, here are just 10 of the best reasons – to help you decide for yourself…

  • Space for all of you - oodles of it - No more sitting on top of those around you – and no more knees in your back from the guy behind. Stand up, wander round, when and as often as you like.
  • Free Luggage - We don’t do baggage charges. Bring as much luggage as you can fit in your car. As much as you need for kids, toys, golf clubs, bikes, even your favourite pillow. And all at the quoted price. What are ‘excess’ charges anyway?
  • Fresh Air - it may not sound like much, but have you felt the wind in your hair, and the smell of a fresh sea breeze recently?
  • And freedom continues on dry land – the freedom to explore at your leisure that is. Go left or right it's up to you. And all the easier when you’re comfortable in a car that you know well.
  • We all drive on the same side of the road. Be confident and be safe as well.
  • No nasty surprises with the price you pay - such as taxes, parking fees or excess baggage.
  • No long check in - just arrive 30 minutes before your crossing and drive straight onboard.
  • Travelling with Irish Ferries is the beginning to your real holiday. Arrive relaxed, and ready to continue on to your destination. What could make more sense? Consider it just a break in an enjoyable drive away.
  • All your family goes on holiday. Why leave your pet behind? Bring them along, travelling in comfort in your own car (or kennels when available).
  • Suits You - Our fares and offers are structured to suit you. Our check-in and travel policies are flexible – to suit you, and our facilities onboard our modern ships are all there to suit you. So go ahead – what are you waiting for?
