If we’re on the morning ferry , we usually leave the depot around 6 - 6.15, it’s normally 75 mins to the port. I suppose now we will be leaving a lot earlier, so that we don’t encounter the wrath of the booking-in clerks. Miss that 30 minute before the boat leaves cut off point and you’re stuffed.

Well have to see how they cope when its busy?
Maybe it`ll be to just use the option to check vehicles in the pre-gate lanes as they were doing. The single entry porch/tunnel they now have may be good in principle, but I doubt just that one will be adequate.

Are you noticing more checks from Douane now too? It all takes time doesn`t it.

If you mean on the way out of the port, most definitely !! Has been for a while now.
When I get off the boat I normally park up for a bit, even if I don’t need to do a “ferry mode” just to let the queue die down

Port exit, yes you`re right, but now they have those new elevated cabins inside the entry gates the Douaniers are doing more checks there too.
