Another first for LD Lines

LD Lines has become the first ferry operator between the UK and France to introduce a free iPhone app feature that now enables users to search all sailings, fares offers, product information and make bookings via the website, across the company's cross-Channel route network.

The revolutionary app will now assist business and leisure travellers to immediately source all LD Lines' ferry service information, and is the latest high tech innovation introduced by the ferry operator, who has also recently installed self check-in facilities initially at the ports of Portsmouth and Le Havre.

"We are delighted to be the first cross-Channel ferry company to pioneer this brand new facility to the ferry market and reflects our commitment to providing competitive, fast, hassle-free transport and products throughout for our customers," said LD Lines' Managing Director, Christophe Santoni.

"All these latest initiatives are focused on making bookings easier, reducing check-in times and, as the first of our routes to implement self check-in facilities, on the Portsmouth - Le Havre route are an appropriate added value service complemented by the fast three hours 15 minutes crossing time of our high speed ferry, Norman Arrow.

LD Lines operates a network of four exclusive cross-Channel ferry routes ; Portsmouth - Le Havre; Newhaven - Dieppe; Dover - Boulogne; and Ramsgate - Ostend (in association with Transeuropa Ferries).

LD Lines’ iPhone app feature is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch and iPad products.
