Please ensure that you have advised your Ferry company that you require assistance at least 24hrs before departure. If this is not possible we will make best endeavours to assist you whilst travelling through the Port.

There are specialist vehicles available to transport passengers on foot to and from the ferries. We provide an extensive passenger car park located directly opposite the foot passenger hall at:

If you require assistance from the carpark please either press one of the intercom buzzers located on one of the payment machines or Entry/Exit barriers. You can also call 012020 440220 and ask to speak to the duty foreman who will arrange assistance.

You’ll find luggage trolleys located here for your convenience. The car park itself is a “Pay on Foot” system with all fees payable by debit or credit card at the exit machines. The fees are as follows:

• Up to 1 Hour – £1.00
