Ferry cancels July bookings

IRISH Ferries has cancelled bookings on its new WB Yeats ferry, scheduled to depart in July.

In an email to passengers, the company said that the German shipyard building the ferry is running behind schedule. The delivery of the WB Yeats is therefore likely to be delayed, forcing Irish Ferries to cancel a number of sailings between July 12 and 29. Affected passengers can be rerouted on another sailing and have been offered a €150 e-voucher towards an Ireland to France trip.
