I like that you xan…

I like that you xan get an earlier ferry when you arrive early at the port. We left on time, only arrived a bit later than expected. I realise that that is something out of your control.
I used the lounge, which I was impressed with. I think that is good value. But the overal price of the ferry I find is getting very expensive.
The staff are very friendly and helpful.
It's a convenient crossing and I will use your services again.
