Adopting the principal that the earlier you book the bigger the saving, knowing that the big discount codes we used to get from Motorhome shows are a thing of the past I looked at prices for Dover-Calais return for next year. (Feb-June).
I looked at both DFDS and P&O and have now booked with P&O.
DFDS on their cheapest tickets - £258.00 (No flexibility).
P&O Standard Flexi both legs - £152.00 (full refund upon cancellation and no admin charge if changing crossing dates)
This is the first time I have seen such a huge discrepancy between the two companies on like for like sailings and yes, prices continue to creep up. I remember only a few years back we were getting return crossings for under £60. Sadly those days are gone forever I fear.
