I read that the other day and I am a bit puzzled by it. On 1st April will freight traffic suddenly and magically increase to warrant all those extra sailings, surely there will be no need for any boats as by about midday on the 1st all the potts will be blocked solid with trucks and cars waiting to be processed on both sides. In this case all the current boats can be moved to other routes with no need for any extra. It just sounds like it's going to be a new PFI of the seas.
