Brittany Ferries is adding another luxury cruise-ferry to its fleet to provide its customers with an additional 2 round trips a week on the Portsmouth-Santander route.

The new vessel – as yet unnamed - will complement the existing Spanish services operated by the company’s flagship, Pont Aven, with which it has many features in common, notably its high cruising speed enabling the crossing from Portsmouth to be made in just 24 hours. With 244 cabins – all with ensuite facilities - she can accommodate up to 1,500 passengers and their cars.

David Longden, Managing Director, comments: “Despite the recession, demand for the new Spanish route has exceeded our expectations and forward bookings for 2010 are strong. We believe this is because Portsmouth is very easy to get to by road, especially from the Home Counties. At the same time more and more people are discovering the unspoilt delights of northern Spain.”
