The Brittany Ferries ships are finally back in service.

After two tormented years marked by the health crisis and Brexit, the Breton shipping company announced on Tuesday the reopening of all its lines and a strengthening for the tourist season of its links between France and Ireland.

"We are delighted to confirm this good news to our staff, our customers and our port partners for this 2022 season which is beginning", rejoices in a press release Christophe Mathieu, chairman of the management board of the shipping company.

After a winter interruption, Brittany Ferries will first relaunch its historic line between Roscoff (Finistère), the company's headquarters, and Plymouth in the south of England.

From March 28, two ships will provide respectively one and five round trips per week.

Two other ships will also resume service between France and the south of England: from March 26 on the Saint-Malo/Portsmouth line and from April 4 on the one linking Cherbourg to Poole.

The company will also strengthen for the 2022 tourist season (from April to the end of October) its passenger connections between France and Ireland.

It will thus offer two round trips per week from Roscoff to Cork.

This resumption of full activity coincides with the commissioning by the company of its first vessel powered by liquefied natural gas.
