Booking the correct vehicle when travelling by ferry.

So that Condor Ferries can make your journey as safe, punctual and comfortable as possible, it is important that you give accurate information about the size of your vehicle when you book. In addition, the fare for your journey will vary depending on the size (length and height), cargo and type of your vehicle. The correct height of the vehicle is also required as vehicles over 1.85m (inclusive of items placed on the roof) cannot be accommodated in all parking areas onboard. Please note the maximum laden vehicle weight is 3.5 tonnes (equivalent to 2 tonnes axle weight) for our Fast Ferry services. Any vehicle exceeding this will be refused boarding.

If you travel in a vehicle with different dimensions to those on your booking form, you will be liable to an excess charge at the port of departure, and may be refused carriage.
