Season tickets, Carnets and Frequent Travellers clubs

French food and drink brands

All the cross channel companies now have some sort of frequent traveller scheme in place. Fares can be very reasonable although travel times are restricted and the "Carnet" (or book) of tickets needs to be paid for up front. Tickets usually last for a year, but sometimes this applies from the date of purchase, not first date of travel.

It pays to find the time to shop around - for the best fares, be flexible.

WOW! PO ferries now offer special especially low fares to visitors to Day-tripper.net.

• £25 daytrip fare to Calais (car and up to 9 passengers) •
