  • We should do a sell/ swap sun holiday thread. I may also need to sell or swap my hol due to husband not being able to get the time off work.
  • Out of interest, for those of you who are going to brittany in may half terrm or indeed other times, did you all manage to book your ferry sucessfully, and did you get your 'sun' discount? I'm wondering particularly about those who managed to book seven nights?
    I have seen a few people posting saying they had problems booking their ferry once they'd got their holiday, or that they didn't receive their link to book it at all!
    We are using the tunnel for france this year, but hoping to do brittany or spain next year in may and would need to book a ferry...

    When you book a Brittany Ferry with the Sun you do it all in one go along with the holiday, the Sun website offers you the crossings and you pick which one and pay altogether with your accommodation. You are meant to get a separate confirmation email from Brittany ferries which I haven't had yet, but I have checked last years booking and I didn't have the confirmation email until early April!

    If sent through posture usually takes a couple of weeks- wait for cheque to go out then should receive it shortly after.

    If you mean online you should get an email quickly the follow up by post to invoice extras within 1-2 weeks or so in my experience.
