    Excellent as always - despite the weather!
    I had to travel to the mainland for an appointment and it was the day where we had some of the highest winds we had all winter!! Our ferry was delayed about 30mins and it was packed out! Tourists (Easter week loomed large) foot passengers from cancelled passenger catamaran & “normal” travellers like myself. My goodness the sea was rough with waves coming right over our boat. Passengers were kindly advised to stay seated, but many, of course - didn’t! The Captain took us almost to Cowes to bring us back to Fishbourne in more sheltered waters - he deserves the highest praise!! I love the staff of Wightlink Ferries always helpful & polite. A word of praise to the hospitality team who deal brilliantly with hordes of customers needing feeding on boarding!!
    Hello MrsGlamTraveller, I am pleased to see that despite the weather, you enjoyed your experience with us. I will be sure to pass on your praise for the Captain and crew who were working that day. The safety of our customers and staff will always be our highest priority and although on occasions, we run with delays the staff will always try their best to make your experience more enjoyable. We hope to see you again soon.

    Excellent service
    Traveled to Porstmouth at 7-00 in the morning expected to return same day at 2-00pm. Had an urgent meassage from home and had to return early. The Portsmouth attendant could not have been more helpful and when I explained why I had to return urgently he got me on the next ferry. Cannot thank him enough.
    Hello grahamh55, Thank you for your kind words for the staff when travelling with us. I am pleased to hear they were able to accomodate you on an earlier sailing. If you would like your feedback sent to the person that you found helpful please email us at feedback@wightlink.co.uk along with your booking number so we can get this passed on.

    Love Wightlink Ferries Staff
    Always a pleasure to travel with Wightlink as the staff are so friendly and helpful. Had a coffee and bacon roll on the way to Portsmouth - delicious and served with a smile and bit of a chat. On the return home the staff in the Camber cafe were equally welcoming and Donna in particular was lovely. They even tried to find me a phone charger as my phone was about to die and I needed it to show my boarding pass. Can’t thank you folks enough.
    Hello jandH933IR, Thank you so much for taking the time to share this with us. I have passed your kind words for Donna and the staff on to those working that day and our Senior Mangement team. Thanks again and hope to see you soon.

    Different point of view
    First time as a foot passenger on the Portsmouth - Fishbourne car ferry. Staff were very helpful with boarding and disembarkation. It gives you a different view on how the team works on every crossing daily. You also get to be the first on and off the ferry.
    Hello ExplorerRO, Thank you for your review. I am pleased to hear that you enjoyed travelling as a foot passenger on our Portsmouth to Fishbourne route and we hope to see you onboard again soon.

    Brilliant Service
    We travelled from Portsmouth to Fishbourne. What a brilliant service. This was the first time I have driven on a ferry and was a little nervous but from the moment we arrived at the port the check in was so easy the nerves went. We was a bit early but they got us on an earlier ferry. So no waiting around. Easy to drive on and off. Got ourselves a hot drink and sat outside to enjoy the views. Lovely smooth crossing. Can't wait to do it all again.
    Good afternoon, I am glad you enjoyed your overall experience with Wightlink and that you found the whole process from checking in to boarding so smooth and efficient. Your review is appreciated and we look forward to seeing you onboard again soon.

    Great for those with disabilities.
    Amazing assistance for those with disabilities. Extra wide parking spot on the ship, wheelchair availability. Blue badge holders were the first to board, parking cars directly next to the passenger lifts (easy access to the decks). Note, let them know ‘before’ you travel that you need assistance.

    Good service but extremely expensive
    Great service but this comes with a caveat. We spoke to several small businesses on the island and the extremely high ferry costs for taking your car to the Isle of Wight are affecting them with less holidaymakers visiting. On our journey from Portsmouth to Fishbourne it was very quiet considering its the Summer and was at the weekend. I hope Wightlink take note of feedback like this because ultimately it will affect their business as well.
    Hello 575davet, I am pleased to hear that your recent travel with us was a positive experience however, I am sorry you find the fare prices too high. We use Flexi-Pricing, which means that prices for a particular crossing may increase in line with demand for that crossing. Our fares also reflect the cost of running our service (which is not subsided). The sooner you book, the more likely you are to pay a lower fare and fares will generally get higher the closer you get to the sailing date, particularly during busier times. Thank you again and we hope to see you soon.

    Family tree.
    We had booked pre COVID but had to cancel everything, which went swimmingly. Went early July instead. Booked priority as my mum is not as sprightly these days. On both trips we were able to get a earlier ferry, although not priority on our return,we will definitely use wightlink again. I'd Googled both isle of wight ferries and wightlink seemed the better company to go with, and this was definitely the case. We did speak to others who didn't rate the other company,so we made the right choice. Keep up the good work. Well done. We were emailed about a change of ferry on the return trip promptly and then still managed to get this even earlier boat. Portsmouth to Fishbourne was a good choice for us to use and really close to the bed and breakfast we stayed at.
    Hello Suer946, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I'm pleased to hear you were still able to take your trip after Covid and enjoyed sailing with Wightlink. We hope to see you onboard again soon.

    Wow what a fantastic company to deal with (please read to end of review) Upon early arrival at Portsmouth we were allowed to join boarding lanes Departed on time Lots of cafes and play areas for children Staff were friendly On return journey from Ryde we broke down in the boarding lane. This is were you find out how good (or not) a company is. WOW Wightlink were AMAZING The manager Vince could not do enough for us. He was so kind and caring, even to the point of entertaining our 3 yr old granddaughter. We were put on the next available ferry after the car was sorted. AMAZING SERVICE
    Hello Glaspers77, It's great to see that you enjoyed sailing with Wightlink and found the staff to be so helpful when your car broke down, which I hope is now sorted. I will be sure to pass this on to Vince as well as to our Senior Managament. Thank you for sharing your experience, your feedback is appreciated and we hope to see you onboard again soon.
