thanks for that information Trucker, was looking at the Isle of Inishmore on marine traffic yesterday and was wondering what was up.

Oscar Wilde is running this morning but was cancelled most of yesterday and is also cancelled tonight. It should be busy with Cheltenham goers today.

Over the weekend we had strong winds blowing from the west, no wonder Rosslare - Pembroke sailings were at risk.

There are storms blowing through every couple of days.

yes its going to be lively over the next few days

Looking at social media it appears there was a press launch today on the afternoon sailing. A very nice day for it too.

I hope to try out the WB myself on Thursday.

Yes I recommend contacting Irish Ferries they have always answered my queries via direct message on twitter.

Stena Line have their menu published on the website which something Irish Ferries is lacking in.

PS Welcome to the forum!

I agree with the above it looks very odd for Irish Ferries communication strategy.

I wonder if Irish Ferries would continue with Rosslare France if they could get a charter a cheaper & smaller ferry to operate similar to Epsilon.

I know they are non available though.

Nordica took 4.5hours to turn around sailings in Holyhead this morning. It takes a bit of time to refamiliarise  with things I  suppose.


Horizon docked in Rosslare around 8am after its delayed weekend sailing to Cherbourg.

IF blame the NTA for their own decision to shutting down Rosslare France. IF/ICG must a massive Crystal ball,  because it is hard to know how a route has become"commercially unviable" when Irish Ferries did not even attempt to take bookings for said route for the 2019 season.

its obvious the only way to shore the accounts if to flog Oscar while they can before the ship gets any older. Demand for a Rosslare to France doesnt matter to them.


IF want to fight this all the way. I pity anyone waiting for compensation because they wont get a penny until the legal process is exhausted.

Yeats left around 23.30 due to 'technical reasons' - teething problems I assume
