How does the ferry crossing work on the Dublin to Edinburgh route?

The route uses the Cairnryan–Belfast ferry (Stena Line or P&O, ~2h 15m).

Timings are planned around the sailing you book.

Ferry tickets are booked separately by the customer — this keeps flexibility on sailing times and passenger counts. Share your booked sailing time and the transfer either side is planned to match it.

How many passengers can you take?

Executive vehicle for 1–8 passengers with space for full suitcases and ferry-ready luggage. Confirm the load when booking so the right vehicle is allocated.
