Wightlink Ferries

@Alisdisgrace @mattforde @GussieGrips We have an 'Ask for Ruby' service for women, where free period products are provided whenever you need them.

@mattforde @GussieGrips @wightlinkferry Do they offer the same service for women?

First time I’ve seen this. Absolutely brilliant @wightlinkferry 👏 👏 👏 More places should do this.

𝗣𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘀𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵 - 𝗙𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲 𝘂𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 We apologise for the disruption today (17 February). Following further review, we started operating from Portsmouth International Port (PIP) from the 16:00 sailing today. We will run a shuttle service every three hours overnight between PIP and Fishbourne, and our online timetable has been updated to reflect this. From Portsmouth International Port, services will depart at 19:00, 22:00 and 01:00. From Fishbourne, services will depart at 20:30, 23:30 and 02:30. These services will operate with reduced capacity, and unfortunately some customers have had to have their sailings cancelled. Any passengers on a cancelled sailing will be contacted and receive a full refund. Thank you for your patience while we continue working to safely restore normal operations.

Due to a heavy berthing incident at our Gunwharf port, both St Clare and our port infrastructure have sustained damage. While this damage is assessed, all sailings on this route are cancelled until at least 15:20 from Portsmouth and 16:20 from Fishbourne. Our phone lines are very busy, so we recommend checking our website for the latest updates. wightlink.co.uk/plan-your-jour…
