P&O Ferries Active Deals, Sales & Codes in June, 2026

P&O Ferries traces its roots back more than 180 years, making it one of the UK’s longest-running ferry operators. With a fleet of over 20 vessels, the company runs more than 30,000 sailings each year, carrying upwards of 10 million passengers. Eight major routes link England with France, the Netherlands, Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland — spanning the English Channel, North Sea, and Irish Sea.

The route network spans everything from quick channel hops to overnight crossings. Dover to Calais remains the flagship route, with day trips from around £60 and one-way car fares from £106. The Hull to Rotterdam overnight service departs in the evening and arrives the following morning — a practical alternative to driving through France and Belgium for travellers heading to the Netherlands or beyond. Short breaks to France start from £134, while mini cruises to Amsterdam are available from £65 per person, occasionally with themed itineraries.

Families benefit from kids-go-free promotions on Irish Sea sailings — a meaningful saving when travelling with children. On the Hull to Rotterdam route, dedicated pet-friendly cabins now accommodate up to two small dogs or one medium-to-large dog, with direct access to the car deck exercise area. Selected crossings also feature a pet lounge with complimentary drinks for owners, priced from £12 per person. Consumers voted P&O Ferries Best and Favourite Ferry Company at the Globe Travel Awards for three consecutive years (2016–2018).

These routes and features, combined with the deals we’ve gathered below, make this page well worth bookmarking if you’re planning any cross-Channel or North Sea travel.

When’s the best time to book P&O Ferries for the cheapest fares?

Booking early and choosing midweek sailings are the two most effective strategies. P&O Ferries’ midweek deals — such as motorhomes travelling at car fares — reflect a broader pattern of lower midweek pricing across routes. Based on the pricing patterns we’ve tracked, January and early February see promotional pushes, and post-summer sales in September are also worth watching. If you’re flexible on dates, sorting by price on the P&O Ferries website reveals the cheapest options for your chosen route.

Hull to Rotterdam vs Dover to Calais — which crossing suits me?

For a quick hop to France, Dover to Calais wins on speed alone. But if the Netherlands is your destination — or you’d rather not drive through Belgium — the overnight Hull crossing doubles as a night’s accommodation and arrives fresh the next morning.

Can I bring my dog on board a P&O Ferries crossing?

Yes. The Hull to Rotterdam route has dedicated pet-friendly cabins that fit up to two small dogs or one medium-to-large dog, with direct access to the car deck exercise area. On selected crossings, a pet lounge with complimentary drinks for owners is available from £12 per person. Declare your pet during booking — don’t leave it until you reach the port.

How do I combine different offers to maximise savings?

The most effective approach we’ve seen is combining early booking with midweek departures, then checking the “Deals” tab before committing. Newsletter subscribers occasionally get access to exclusive pricing, so signing up ahead of time is worthwhile. Kids-go-free promotions on Irish Sea routes can reduce family trip costs significantly — just verify the specific sailing dates, as the offer doesn’t cover every departure.
