Hi Tring,
The request was those going ashore independently in Guernsey either went before 0830 (and the tours) or after 1000 (after the tours).
So, we duly collected our tender tickets around 1020 from Anderson’s and waited. They appeared to be only using two tenders so the process was slow. Because we thought there may be a similar wait to return we abandoned our trip at 1200. We noted our tickets were called at 1210.
However, since posting I have since learnt that the ferry from St Peter Port was quite possibly taken out of service at that time due to a medical situation. Now that is entirely understandable and if P&O had bothered to give any sort of update rather than just calling 80 ticket numbers every 25 mins, then we would have been more inclined to not give up.
People returning said the waiting time was reasonably short due to the ferry transporting once passengers again.
No issue with sea conditions.
