Ferry Booking Price Change

    An hour ago I looked at Direct Ferries.com for the best rate to the UK.


    I got three choices for my dates (out June 24, back June 25) at around €80 each way with car.


    I left the computer screen for half-an-hour and returned to book. When I filled in the form the screen refreshed and I was told that all three companies had put up their prices since I last checked. It was now about €380 return for all three - more than double the price.


    I have no idea if I would have gotten the advertised price if I had booked immediately.


    Anyway, I was only interested in one of the sailings - more suitable times - so I switched from Firefox (which I normally use) to Chrome and opened an "incognito" page.


    I logged into the ferry company I wanted to use (not into directferries.com) and booked my return journey for €180+.


    Just thought I'd share the experience.

    D.
