Satisfactory service as usual
Satisfactory service as usual, but the price seems either out of control or exploitative of unrelated events on the Island such as IoW Festival, Cowes Week, Round the Island Race or major holidays. I'm a frequent traveller on the route and have never been able to understand (or able to take advantage of) the apparently opaque pricing logic. Return trips with my car have varied between around £75 and over £200. Car ferry fares on a route from Seattle in the US North-west to a Puget Sound island at a similar distance for a car and 4 passengers were $10 each way a decade ago and less than double that now. Go figure.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. Like many other transport providers, our fares are based on demand, which may cause fares to increase around busy dates and times.

Lift was not working so had to climb…
Lift was not working so had to climb lots of stairs as we were on the lowest deck. As we and several members of our party have mobility issues it was not ideal to say the least. Went to purchase some coffee and the milk in the coffee machine wasn’t working as a previous customer had mentioned it tasted off and it hadn’t been replaced. This was on our return journey. Outward journey was issue free

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. I am sorry to hear that you had to use the stairs. We do have lifts on both of our vehicle decks and we ask that passengers who require lift access let us know when making their booking. This allows us to place notes on your booking to ensure that you are placed near a lift, and where needed make any additional arrangements required such as additional room to open a door fully.
I shall ensure that your comments regarding the coffee machines are reviewed by the relevant teams and I sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this caused.

Overall good
Booking in was ok, but could have done with both booths open, loading went well but drivers could have been reminded to turn off their alarms.
Need some covering on the decks, it was really hot, and this would apply in damp weather too, so some sort of roofing for people to sit under,
Staff were pleasant
Aircon had malfunctioned making the dog area inside stupidly hot.
Not enough toilets
Would be good if smoking was banned on the whole ship as some people were vaping in the non smoking areas

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your constructive feedback. We do suggest to passengers that they disable their alarm on the safety information on the back of the hanger that is provided to passengers upon check-in. I shall ensure that your suggestions are reviewed by the relevant teams.

A relaxing start to our holiday
Booking online was an easy, straightforward process.
Checking in was easy and both ferries left on time. Facilities/toilets were clean.
All in all it was a stress free experience.

It was good to see one sun deck open
It was good to see one sun deck open. We have had several crossings, but this was the first time we had been able to use one. We are always impressed with the efficiency of the staff when we arrive at the kiosk and the loading and unloading procedure.

Booking is easy online
Booking is easy online, we were allowed to alter our time on return crossing to an early one, only disappointment was there was no hot breakfast items available apart from drinks. Prices to use the service remain questionable.

Love red funnel car ferry
Love red funnel car ferry, never had a delay in 30 years of using it on out peaky holiday. The only thing I would change is the food is not very nice. I’m sure they could do better on the hot food front. I had sausage in a bap, was asked if I wanted fried onions but when it came they were like dried onion flakes, disgusting. The chips are tasteless, have never had a decent meal on the ferry. Chef pls take note. Staff are lovely though.

Excellent customer service and ease of amending our return journey time to an earlier slot! Good management of the onboarding of cars and equally as efficient on off loading in destination ports. Clean communal areas onboard the ferry too.
