THE Isle of Man Steam Packet Company is inviting travellers to plan a break to the Isle of Man, as it launches ferry sailings for 2021.

Although the Manx borders remain closed to non-island residents for now, the Isle of Man Government is progressin­g a five-stage plan to relax restrictio­ns. To help make travel as flexible as possible and give customers peace of mind when booking, the Steam Packet Company has introduced its ‘Book with Confidence Commitment’.

Amendment fees will be waived if passengers choose to make changes along with the promise of a full refund if travel is affected by Government-imposed COVID19 travel restrictio­ns.

Offers include: Spring 5 Day Short Break for two adults travelling with a car from £98 each way; Spring 5 Day Short Break for a motorbike and a rider from £52 each way; Kids Go Free Summer Special (June 30 to August 26), two adults travelling midweek with a car can take up to three kids for free from £135 each way.

SKI BOOKINGS ON AN UPWARDS SLOPE

BRITS are already looking to hit the slopes this winter with bookings in July surging 125% above June figures, says Crystal Ski Holidays.

While there is good demand for self-catering chalets, the most popular holiday type is half board, with Italy, France and Austria the most popular destinatio­ns.

Crystal boss Chris Logan said: ‘’Things will undoubtedl­y be a bit different, with health and safety measures being introduced to protect our customers and staff, but by the time our season launches we’ll have had a year since the crisis hit and we are now used to a new normal.’’
