With Molslinjen-Kombardo-system it would take CIRCA 5 hours door-to-door for 13 Euro (99 DKK) - as from Holstebro or Skive to Copenhagen. This is no problem to pay it for him (or his parents) every friday and sunday and then enjoy all weekends together with family, old school-friends, mothers kitchen, mothers washing-machine etc. .I think you mean Derry ;)
But today with Stena Line or P&O ???
It would costs MUCH more money - more than 64,- Euro (rome2Rio) and a lot of more time too - longer than 10 hours - and minimum 3 changes are needed. Also with flight-combination without baggage it is minimum 60,- and takes 5 hours and 3 changes.
So the result is: Today all these people can only pay travelling home christmas, easter or at birthday. To pay 26,- Euro each weekend is possible for nearly all people - but to pay 120 or 130 Euro each weekend is not possible and travel with 3 changes is very uncomfortable also.

There were also speed restrictions on the HSS in Belfast Lough.
Quote from: giftgrub on April 20, 2024, 03:27:31 PMNo. 3,4,5&6 Life Boats corroded keel structure & hanging brackets (UTM Report ALF-23435 December 2023) to be repaired. Flag Exemption letter RCS 13826-12-007-2024 dated 2024.01.09 allows for reduction in LSA numbers to 632 along with mitigating arrangements to be made.
Also as pointed out by forum member boathansm previously the passenger certificate has expired on the 15th April so lucky that everything went to plan in the end.
