Brittany Ferries has opened sales early for sailings to France and Spain until November 2027.
The new timetable covers 12 months of ferry services from November 2, 2026 to November 7, 2027.
Brittany Ferries will run 130 weekly peak season sailings linking 12 ports in the UK, Ireland, France and Spain.
The 2027 schedule for sailings linking the UK and France to Guernsey are currently being finalised and will be available soon, according to the company.
Sales and marketing director Paul Acheson said: “More than ever, the regions we serve in France and Spain offer an accessible, peaceful and authentic escape from global strife and overtourism.
“We’re delighted to make next season’s ferry sailings to these destinations available earlier than ever before, which means customers can put their travel plans in place for 2027 now.
“Booking today also guarantees the best choice of sailings, fares, and the first pick of cabins, especially the most sought-after types such as deluxes, Commodores and pet-friendlies.”
Brittany Ferries’ most popular route between Portsmouth and Caen will mark 40 years of operation with three daily return sailings operated by cruise-ferry Mont St Michel and the company’s newest vessel, hybrid LNG-electric powered Guillaume de Normandie.
Portsmouth to Le Havre will be served by daily sailings between March 22 and November 7.
Daily departures will serve Cherbourg from Poole as well as two sailings a week from Portsmouth.
Daily Portsmouth-St Malo services will operate overnight southbound, with daytime return sailings northbound throughout the year.
Brittany Ferries’ original route from Plymouth to Roscoff in Brittany will offer up to seven sailings a week in each direction, with the return of Thursday overnight departures by flagship Pont-Aven.
Overnight sailings linking the UK to northern Spain have gained popularity in recent years, as more Brits swap planes for ferries.
The 2027 timetable will offer up to six departures a week in each direction between the UK and northern Spain – two linking Portsmouth to Bilbao, two between Portsmouth and Santander and two from Plymouth to Santander.
Four weekly sailings year-round have been scheduled to Cherbourg from Rosslare, plus two a week from Cork to Roscoff from March until November.
Brittany Ferries launched the first Ireland to Spain ferry service in 2018, and will offer two weekly return sailings from Rosslare to Bilbao next year by LNG-powered ferry Salamanca.
