Did anyone have any problems? It was all very smooth for us.

On the way back at the Pompey check one of our Passports didn't scan correctly but it worked fine second time. The Passport officer apologised for the minimal delay and we were on our way.   Other than that no problems going or comeing..

No pre-notified information needed, and no problems for us on the way out or back in at Dover/Calais - I was struggling to see anything being done differently...

No problems in Eurotunnel.

Except they put me upstairs, and the car hardly had the power to get up the ramp... gave the bloke behind a brown trouser moment... (I think it was down to 2 cylinders at times...)

in and out Guernsey - St Malo. No problems at all checked on the Guernsey side and just showed the cover on the french side. Being from Guernsey we have different passports - sure it says elite somewhere  ;D

It's been a while since I did the Newhaven/Dieppe route and getting off the boat at N/haven & through PP control was a pain.

Maybe it was always like that........  :-\

Yes. They can only use the one ramp to discharge at Newhaven - hence it takes an age to get out and away.

Eurotunnel, no delays either way.
Very simple, no noticeable changes to be honest.

Brittany Pirates phoned me at 15.00 on the Saturday (to ask for pre-boarding info, which I gave when I booked...) needless to say I didn't hear the phone ring for some strange reason. All that booing, poor President Hollande!

Thinking about it when I booked Brittany I had to supply Names and Passport info etc  in the same way you do when you fly.

Certainly would have made me wish I'd gone a different route!
