Galicia would make an ideal running mate for WB Yeats amd Oscar Wilde on Dublin - Cherbourg

She has spent the winter idle and could be available from next October if Brittany Ferries decide to keep Normandie. She is not compatible with the rest of the LNG fleet and there have been rumours her lease with Stena is to be terminated when St Malo arrives.

Brittany Ferries will operate Rosslare - Cherbourg sailings in between sailings to Bilbao, Two ships Salamanca and Galicia will operate the routes in 2024.

Bilbao was preferred destination for irish hauliers and irish tourists. i am sure this is only a temporary move unless they plan to operate to both Bilbao and Sandenter next summer using Pont Avon, in addition to the Salamanca service to Bilbao.

She will move to Dublin Cherbourg route during the world cup.

Blue Star 1 is on the route until next Sunday unless Oscar Wilde passes regulatory inspections before that time.

Irish Ferries were fined a number of years ago for taking bookings for WB Yeats and then not being able to fulfill the bookings due to her late arrival. They will not officially Add Oscar Wilde to the booking engine until she and her crew pass all regulatory checks.

At Christmas the rumour was P&O were exiting the market with DFDS taking over Dublin - Liverpool and Dover Calais routes.

Irish ferries focus is on landbridge. If they aquire pride of canterbury and pride of kent from P&O , that would release Isle of Innisfree for Rosslare - Pembroke route.

Her charter is due for renewal on 1st November 2023.
