PLEASE check with the operator nearer the time, as it is often necessary to make late changes,   especially to the vessel operating a particular sailing
Note: Additional sailings are operated throughout the year by motor vessels
During busy periods, it is possible that some
of these may be operated on a day by day basis by PS Concordia - enquire locally
PLEASE e-mail me with details if YOU become aware of any
