HD Ferries Alderney ferry service cancelled
Date: 27 Jul 2007 00:00 Source: HD FerriesIt has been announced that HD Ferries have cancelled their proposed Alderney ferry service. In a statement released today, HD Ferries commented: 'It is with regret that we will be unable to operate the planned new HD Ferries service to Alderney in the foreseeable future due to a damaged water jet.'
The damaged jet was removed from hd1 in the early hours of Monday morning and transported to the UK for a thorough examination.
HD Ferries are still awaiting a detailed report on the actual cause of the failure but it is unlikely the repair can be completed within the next 6 weeks.
Do to the reduced operational speed it will not be possible to maintain the schedule to Alderney.
HD Ferries will however operate the service to Cherbourg on a slightly revised schedule to allow for the slightly slower service speed.
The Cherbourg service will operate on Fridays and Mondays commencing on August 6th 2007. Below is the revised schedule:
Depart Guernsey 13:15
Arrive Cherbourg 16:00
Depart Cherbourg 16:30
Arrive Guernsey 17:15
The schedule will be the same for both Fridays and Mondays.
