Port says it is working to resolve issues but urges passengers not to arrive more than two hours before departure
The Christmas travel plans of tens of thousands of ferry passengers at the Port of Dover have been delayed by IT problems with French border control.
Millions of motorists hit the roads this weekend in the Christmas getaway, with travel experts warning people to plan ahead to avoid “Grinch-worthy” delays.
Before the peak traffic arrival on Saturday morning, border staff at Dover began facing tech issues, the port said in a post on X, with some problems ongoing.
The port said it was working with partner agencies to resolve the issues, and urged passengers not to arrive more than two hours before their ferry departure time.
