UPDATE 22/05/2020 14.28

Due to ongoing government advice restricting the movement of people to and from the Channel Islands, France and the UK, all passenger sailings are suspended for the foreseeable future. In order to keep vessels sterile and to protect crew members from potential Corona Virus infection, Condor Ferries decided to suspend all accompanied and unaccompanied cab units shipments on all of their sailings to Channel Islands until further notice. The exceptions are shipments of drop trailers, provided they carry critical supplies such as food, fuel or medical provisions. Each transport is reviewed and approved on individual basis by the operator before shipment.

UPDATE 23/03/2020 11.52

On Tuesday 17 March, the States of Guernsey issued new requirements. Anyone travelling to the Bailiwick of Guernsey from anywhere in the world, including the UK and Jersey will have to self-isolate for 14 days. With effect from 00.01 on Thursday 19 March 2020. The decision to insist on 14 days self-isolation for anyone entering the Bailiwick is a significant change and one which has the potential to impact a number of Islanders. All evidence shows us that if we can contain the virus and prevent community seeding we can lessen the burden on our health and care services. Self-isolation is difficult but the guidance must be adhered to. As well as not going to work, school/childcare, anyone in self-isolation must stay at home and not think that it is alright to just pop out to the shops, have friends round, or go for a walk. Anyone in self-isolation having entered the Bailiwick who develops symptoms, however mild, of a cough, fever or shortness of breath must ring the coronavirus helpline on 01481 756938 and 01481 756969.

With the position on Covid-19 escalating daily, Condor ferries has taken the difficult decision to halt the practice of carrying accompanied freight drivers on the two conventional ferries between its four ports of operation.

From the Commodore Goodwill departure from Portsmouth on the evening of Sunday 15th March, and the Commodore Clipper departure from Portsmouth on the morning of Monday 16th March, nobody will be permitted to sail on her other than essential crew members.

Unaccompanied vehicles will still be shipped but will be subject to strict handling protocol by Condor staff and Stevedores, as advised by the Government Healthcare Specialists.

This will be enforced for an initial four week period and will be reviewed during this period.

The purpose of this is to protect the lifeline freight services to the Channel Islands and retain a sterile environment both ashore and at sea in order to do so.
