Travel comparison site travelsupermarket.com has added a pan-European ferry section.
The ferry comparison service has been created in partnership with aferry.com, part of the Travel Gateway Group.
The ferry section on the site includes advice, guides, maps of various ports around the UK and Europe, as well as a tips and deals section.
Users are being offered customers an exclusive 10 per cent off LD Lines and Transeuropa ferries on the Ramsgate-Ostend route to mark the launch for bookings made before the end of May.
Bob Atkinson, travel expert from travelsupermarket.com, said: “Ferry comparison is a natural extension to the products available at travelsupermarket.com and we are really pleased to provide such a comprehensive offering to our visitors.
“Ferries are a great alternative to flying and also allow customers to travel abroad and take their cars with them. This is an ideal option for families who may have extra luggage – they can fill up their cars and don’t have to pay excess baggage charges they might have done if flying.
“Recent problems with air travel from volcanic ash disruption to strikes have seen travellers looking for ways to avoid airports and our new offering will not only give them choice, it will also save them time in finding those options and present them with the best available fares bookable 24 hours a day.”
Kirsty Laifa from aferry.com, said: “It is our goal to increase the awareness of ferries as a viable and convenient alternative to air travel and we are delighted with the travelsupermarket partnership to promote this.”
