| DFDS Seaways - Ferry crossing information for DFDS Seaways
|
DFDS Seaways operates ferries from both Harwich in Essex and Newcastle in the
north east of England to many North Sea destinations including in Holland,
Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Germany. The fleet that they run is considered as
one of the largest fleets in Northern Europe.
There are seven modern passenger ferries which offer about 9,000 Òbed-nightsÓ
each night in the summer season and has 'parking facilities' for 2,500 cars.
During each year, the company will transport over 1.7 million passengers and
over 200,000 cars on their eight routes across the North Sea.
DFDS try to offer passengers an experience of a genuine maritime atmosphere Ð
trying to provide an excellent level of service and style. They have many
different sizes of ship which have a wide range of facilities, but try to give
each ship their own charm and atmosphere.
As far as safety is concerned, the vessels conform to the highest possible
standards of safety regulations, and these include the recent SOLAS
requirements (the international convention for safety of life at sea). All of
the crew are fully trained in emergency procedures. Should there be an
emergency, the necessary practised safety routines will be immediately
instigated.
When you depart land, you will hear safety regulations presented over the
loudspeakers, and you will also find more information about safety in both your
cabin and other relevant places on board.
DFDS Seaways have come up with some ideas for some different types of breaks.
First is the Mini Cruise Break. DFDS says that these are good for when you are
looking for a romantic break, an action packed family outing or fun with
friends. There is sufficient time to enjoy the experience of cruising. You can
sample the bars, live entertainment and restaurants and on the next day you can
see the sights of your destination or get transferred to a different city
before taking a boat home. Holidays and City Cruise breaks are for longer
holidays, a chance for families to take their car on a boat to Denmark,
Germany, Holland, Sweden or Norway - perfect for weekends with friends, family
outings or a romantic weekend.
All of the DFDS ships are different in size, but each of the them have a
singular charm and atmosphere which is why many of their travellers go
frequently.
