Thats interesting.

We've used the Superfast before, but never with a car - we've gone on short hotel breaks.  We found it an excellent service and really enjoyed ourselves.

It would be a great shame to pull the service completely.

Edit to say - I wonder if they are thinking that they need more cabins and less garaging space.  I know a few people who take it as part of a mini break type trip where you don't need a car.

Funnily, today I was looking at some dates and couldn't get the cabin I wanted for the dates as it was sold out.

Agree with all the previous posts, Superfast seems to mean super price! We go across the channel twice a year and have always driven down to Dover. Norfolkline is doing any vehicle with any size caravan for £144 through the Caravan Club at least until the end of this year. Takes some beating!

That said, just booked my crossing for next week and the best value, bearing in mind the cost of diesel, has turned out to be DFDS from Newcastle to Amsterdam. £214 return for my 4x4 and a 7 metre caravan, including an inside 2 berth cabin. Leaves North Shields at 1730 and arrives Amsterdam 0930. I know this adds a few miles to the journey to the south of France/Spain but then we can cover a lot of them on Dutch, Belgian, Luxembourg motorways with no tolls.

Worth thinking about?
