P&O Ferries, P&O Liberté - Calais/Dover | Full tour

- P&O Liberte is not only the newest ferry operating in UK waters, she, along with her sister P&O Pioneer, are also the world's largest double ended hybrid fusion class ferries.
Both vessels, along with the Spirit Class sisters Spirit of Britain and Spirit of France operate across the English Channel for P&O Ferries between Dover and Calais.
Being double-ended means P&O Liberte and P&O Pioneer do not have to turn within the confines of the port to allow vehicles to drive off saving their passengers a considerable amount of time, as you can see from my video.
Commercial vehicles park on the lower decks whilst tourist cars have their own dedicated deck (Deck 7), one deck below the passenger facilities meaning there is only a short walk to the amenities, though elevators are available.
Passenger amenities are located on Deck 8 and 9.
Deck 8 offers a lounge/bar/coffee shop at the Calais end, amidships one will find a full width dining room with massive curved walls of glass spanning two decks, followed by a World Duty Free superstore with around 15k different products!
On Deck 9 one will find the Pet Lounge at the Calais end, Commercial Drivers dining room and lounge, passenger fast food outlet, two quiet lounges and the magnificent Club Class Lounge.
An extensive amount of exterior deck space encompassing the passenger facilities can be found on both decks.

They are lovely boats now, but miss having a proper café to sit down and eat in, unless I missed it twice last month on the same ferry!
The food is extortionate now. Couldn't understand people laying out £15 a time for an average sized pizza, and overpriced bagged hot food in the essentially unmanned food areas. Must have raked in the money on the jam packed ferry back from Calais! Luckily we ate only a slightly overpriced roll in the DFDS building whilst waiting to board the ferry that evening.
Only thing I buy on the ferries is coffee.
Duty free stores ok, but people mustn't buy as much beer as 30 years ago when it was proper Duty Free with the ridiculous limits people had on cigarettes and alcohol back then as they don't stock much now.
That said, for £39 return during the summer for a day trip, can't argue really. Loved having days out in France that I'd not done for over a decade.
Interesting thing is I've never had to pay a penny in car parking when visiting Calais or Boulogne as the authorities supply so many spaces at no cost whatsoever. Bargain compared to the £3.50 an hour in my local city centre!
Amazingly captured👌❤🎉
Thank you

Great video and camera work.I’m going on a ferry Dover to Calais in late may,any tips on overcoming anxiety.Im really scared
Thanks for watching
What u scared about
@@A2BviaSeaonTV This will sound weird but the ship capsizing and no escape routes
@@Theorising7 you'll be fine
I haven't sailed with P&O for some time now, they used to be my first choice ferry company going back to the Townsend Thoreson days, but after they sacked all their ship's crew a couple of years ago, more so the terrible way they did it I've not used them since.
Wow I am amazed, there is literally no one on this ship, where the only person on here when you filmed this?
Hi. Thanks for watching! I was permitted boarding before everyone else so I could get some interior footage for this video. A blog can be found at www.a2bviasea.co.uk
There's no crew!! Loading in Calais was always busy! And no passengers either!!

Excellent vlog. Ship looks good - but food lacking, decor very similar throughout, concern seating etc will suffer wea4 and tear quickly, concern about crewing arrangements, and the fact batteries are not properly used and crossing takes 105 minutes, so no time saved berthing despite double ended. Having said that some innovative features, outside decks good and better interior than E flexors.

The double ended design is more to save energy (better for the environment) rather than saving time
