Changes to service not incoming, insists company
The Steam Packet has played down suggestions it's considering a future service to Holyhead.
The company confirmed that the Ben-my-Chree undertook berthing trials at the Welsh port last week - but said it was merely 'exploring' alternatives.
Yesterday the company announced an offer to extend its linkspan user agreement with the Manx government.
The £170 million bid provides for two brand new vessels, a public revenue-sharing deal, passenger fare caps and employment guarantees.
But Chief Executive Mark Woodward says last week's trial doesn't mean a shake-up of destinations are on the horizon:
£41K spent on encouraging people to shop local
Baton of Hope to come back to Isle of Man
CoC 'keen' for continuity of sidecar racing at TT
2026 Manx Grand Prix to begin today
