Hibernian Line ferry from Cork to Boulogne-sur-mer

Just wondering why didn't you also highlight that part where he criticised their apology?

How can you say I did not see his videos?

You see no issue whatsoever with someone being critical of an apology, thats strange.

Are you related to him ?

It must be sickening so to read a fellow posters review above.
Because you had ignorantly made a deal of his saying that it was a generic reply.

I can say you didn't see his videos as you wouldn't have gone off half cocked as you did, if you had seen them. Instead you're being a drama queen for what is a very fair review.

I'm not Scottish, so no.

You've an issue with criticism clearly. It's great that someone put up a good review, from their experience but it's a poor reflection on you that you go apeshit over a review following the evidence of two videos that you haven't given the courtesy of watching.

The only issue there with your assumption is, I did see his video's

But then I suppose I don't partake or go down the bandwagon route, rather I make my own judgement of what I see and what I took from it was he dramatised and acted.

Your responses defy any belief that you watched his videos. IF you had, there is no way you would have had such a petty kneejerk reaction, as the guy has done more than many to encourage ferry travel in particular.
 
Just had a look at the prices there. Terrific value imo.

~ €900 for 2 adults, a kid and a car for a 2 week trip.

Compare that with flight tickets, airport parking and car rental. Now add in the hassle of airports and the fact that Cork only flies to Spain which tends to mean a trip to dumplin airport.

Also, lots of train lines in Europe offer the chance to stick your car on the train for longer journeys, especially on the night trains (which also offer cabins).

But but the lads hero Steve said.............

With respect, if you don't believe me, I honestly do not care, but the fact is, I did watch the videos, both of them.

He went onto a balcony on Akka which was in the process of being scrapped back and repainted.
The proof there is, when he went in through the door, after being out there, restrictive tape was against the wall and he actually said, maybe I should not have been out there or words to that affect.

Then in order to portray Hibernia as bad as he possibly could, he posts up the picture of him in that same balcony area which looks crap, he then went to the trouble of pasting the Hibernia Line name and logo across the wall of that same balcony eventhough that is not there in reality.

Now if someone does not see that as someone having some sort of a grudge I am lost.

Also I note Hibernia invited another completely different online ferry critic A2BviaSea to sample The St Patrick next Monday ex Ringaskiddy.

As they did not invite your hero Steve perhaps they were not best pleased with how he went OTT.

Even if you're just driving, you're way closer to everything. We drove from Zurich to Boulogne on Sunday - almost seven hours, granted, but on 130kph motorways pretty much all the way so no hassle.

No I don't believe that you had watched either video when you launched your initial diatribe, and in fact you didn't know of the existence of the previous video until I pointed it out. Clearly you only just skimmed it for this post.

You could not have watched it or at least all of it because if you did, you would not have posted the stupid comment below.
As i said earlier, people get on a ship, get to their destination and go about leaving the ship and away.
After all, how sad is it for a foot passenger to get on a ship on such a long journey and on arriving, wants to go back again
As I said to you previously and you ignored, that was not his decision, the original ship broke down and delayed him by a over a day.
