We’re looking at booking the ferry for June next year, Portsmouth to Bilboa then travelling north and 3 weeks later St Malo to Portsmouth.

I’ve just been in Brittany Ferries and it’s scary 🙈 should I book standard, flexi etc? I think a cabin is best, but only 2 of us so do I have to pay for the too cabin or cheaper cabin that sleeps 4? What’s the best time of day to book so we arrive at a suitable time.

Does anyone have a ‘code’ please? Not sure what it is, but I’ve read about it on here 😂

Do I need to book now oram I ok to wait if we want a cabin?

Sorry for so many questions

Thankyou

You only have two choices on that route - departPortsmouth Sundays or Tuesdays. Arrival in Bilbao is at 8 am after two nights on board in whatever grade of cabin you choose - all are en suite but they range from small two berths in bunk beds up to large and comfortable.cabins. You.pays your money and takes your choice. How rich are you.? I suggest you talk to Brittany Ferries customer service desk and discuss the options.

If I were you I would book the flexi tickets for the small increase in price but in the knowledge you can amend your booking right up to the day of sailing. Booking early is usually best for prices and cabin availability. As said, your choice of cabin depending on what you want to pay. Think carefully about the best departure and arrival times that suit you for your onward journey. If you put your email address on here we will send you our code which gives you a 10% discount off the booking.
