  Dear All
  
  Sorry but for this year's event neither ferry company offered any discounts however you should be able to get a slight reduction on the prices for crossing by booking through the internet in advance. It is also worth trying different times for sailing as this can change the price.....
  
  Hope to see you soon!

    OOPS!
    
    Someone has pointed out to me today that the contact number for the campsite on our website and booking form is incorrect and you have all been trying to call the fax machine - sorry folks!
    
    Please try calling this number - 01983 852597 between 9am and 1pm to book your static caravans!
    
    We look forward to seeing you soon for a fantastic weekend of events on the Isle of Wight!

    • IOW Ferry Tickets.....

      I don't supposse anyone has found any good deals for Ferry tickets this year (2007) from the mainland for the IOW weekend as once again we need to take 2 cars (family of 4 into a GT6 doesn't fit!)?
      
      I've looked on the net and Red Funnell look pretty similar to last year at £53.50 for a 5 day vehicle return ticket booked on line, however Wightlink are an unbeliveable £105- (ouch) as they will not allow travel on the Friday or Monday of May Bank Hol weekend on a 5 day ticket....
      
      Is there anyone out there who happens to have an online discount code that could be shared with other TSSC members on the QT!

        Im over the IOW for a weeks holiday the same week I was amazed that no prices were in place for 2007 untill early jan 07
        even the tourist board were disillusioned with both operators Like wise I have 2 families and 2 cars and wanted to book to make all the provisions of travel reliable for a 7 day stay,,I didnt want to buy the bl..dy boat just a short hop across the water the best we got via the farm we stay at was £78 each initial enquiries started at £135 must be cheaper to buy 2 day returns and chuck one half away...or just turn up and hope......peter

          If you are going to the IOW TSSC weekend there is a good discount available on ferry tickets, details are sent through with your TSSC tickets with instructions not to share the discount code. This gives an incentive here to get your tickets in advance which will obviously help the cash flow of the local area running this event which can only be a good thing.
          
          If you are booking a static caravan, Chalet, apartment etc direct with the Appuldurcombe campsite there is also a discount available direct from the campsite, but the TSSC discount is slightly better than this so it's still worth getting your "entertainment" tickets for the TSSC event in advance using the booking form available from here:- http://website.lineone.net/angela-iwnet/triumph/t....
          
          No good for me as I'd already purchased my ferry tickets through the campsite when we booked our static van but worth pointing out in case anyone else is in the process of booking.
          
          For those of you not going, you will be missing a great weekend!
