Express service returns to Irish Sea

Date: 16 Mar 2010 17:15 Source: P&O Irish Sea

P&O Irish Sea has announced the return of the popular Express service which re-commences on Friday 26th March, just in time for the Easter break.

The renewal of the fast craft Express service means that travellers can keep benefiting from the record breaking 1hr to Cairnryan and 2 hrs to Troon, still the shortest, fastest crossings on the Irish Sea.

James Esler, P&O Irish Sea, Sales, Marketing and Passenger Manager explains, 'The Express service is a valuable part of our Irish Sea fleet and provides a reliable service to our customers. The now firmly established Troon service continues to go from strength to strength with increasing numbers of our customers benefiting from Troon's close proximity to Glasgow and convenient early morning and evening departures. For day trippers and business travellers this offers a complete day in Scotland and for holiday makers it simply gives a hassle free start to the journey.'

There is plenty of space on board the Express to accommodate every passenger in comfort and style, including the popular Fables restaurant, enclosed Kids Play Area, comfortable TV Lounge and a spacious Sea shop where passengers can take advantage of the on-board offers.

The P&O Express will operate from 26 March through to 4 October, providing a speedy way for passengers to cross the Irish Sea. So if you find yourself trudging through the last days of winter, dreaming about getting away, then spring into action! Getting to Scotland and Northern Ireland is fast and hassle-free with P&O Irish Sea.

Book online from just £79 single for a car & driver by visiting our P&O Irish Sea page.
