Condor's summer timetable includes evening departures from Guernsey to Poole on the Liberation from Friday 2nd July.

There will also be some new high-speed sailings to Portsmouth.

The firm has confirmed its schedule as travel restrictions ease - with more capacity at weekends and less on weekdays.

Subject to border restrictions, there will be two sailings a week to France, and Wednesday day trips to St  Malo using Condor's new Voyager ship.

The Voyager will otherwise mainly serve Jersey.

The Rapide will not be used this summer.  The ferry firm says no decision has been made yet about the ship's future.

Condor is due to recommence high-speed services on Friday 21st May.

"The Covid reality of the past 12 months is that we have only carried a fraction of our expected passengers so this has meant a complete review of the level of service we are able to provide.

"Passenger schedules will, nevertheless, show an overall increase in the seat and car capacity compared with previous years and are focussed around weekends. They also support the three parts of our business – lifeline freight, tourism, and travel for Islanders – and have been put together in collaboration with Brittany Ferries."

The Clipper will continue to run daily freight and passenger services from Portsmouth, linking Jersey and Guernsey.

"Everyone knows that the past year has been challenging for everyone in tourism. We are, though, really looking forward to resuming services to bring in much-needed tourism and reunite families once again and are keen to see a recovery in passenger travel.’ -Condor spokesperson
