Not able to book our ferry around the 21st of August yet.

I see some of the sites say the prices will rise by the 31st of May, if we don't book it before hand.
Anyone got any ideas by what %
We are just thinking of going via Calais.
Thanks Trisha

If you want to book a ferry for August you need to book early as poss. ie Jan/Feb for cheapest price, even more so if you want a Sat/Sun crossing. May onwards the prices rise for the Jul/Aug peak holiday period. What might have been a £50 return booked in Jan for Aug crossing might become £150 if booked in Aug just before you wish to travel.

If you are not able to book until near to your August holiday a mid week late night crossing will be far cheaper.

My experience in booking ferries reflects what Tentz says. We book as early as possible and ive not seen last minute deals for quite some years.

Its difficult to be specific but id suggest prices may go up 10 - 20 % in the run up to summer.

Although not the most selubrious of ferries,  Nolkfolk line always offer good value.
