ferry prices

does anyone know how far in advance cross channel ferries release their prices? We're going to visit my parents for Christmas and want to check out prices, but every time i enter the dates, the websites come back with 'that date is not available' I've tried altering the dates but it seems to make no difference.

    Ideally into St Malo or Caen as they give us the shortest driving distance
  • Sorry, those are routes I never use. A quick look at Britanny Ferries' and Condor's websites would suggest that their timetables really only go upto November and October respectively.
    Le Havre or Dieppe with LD Lines does not come up with anything either.

    I guess all you can do then is keep an eye on it.

    Maybe someone else on here uses theses routes more regularly and can shed some light on the matter?

    The Gosport Ferry price hikes up 12.5% on Monday to £2.70 (return).
    But we're having a new pontoon installed over the weekend.
