Packet exploring new options
A new ferry route between the Isle of Man and Northern Ireland could begin in the near future, if Steam Packet berthing trials are a success.
The company has confirmed it's testing the Ben-my-Chree's capability to dock in the port of Larne.
There are currently four regular passenger crossings between Douglas and Belfast per week.
It's expected that a move to Larne would mean the end of that route.
Brendan O'Friel from passenger watchdog TravelWatch says there are a number of factors for the Packet to consider:
Queues at pumps as diesel prices increase across Island
Support to help customers access driver and vehicle services
Island petrol station confirms diesel to increase by 50p per litre
Will the Isle of Man adopt 'Jess's Rule'?
Interim census 'important for business as well as government'
