UPDATE 24/07/18 Irish Ferries Update - Ulysses Ferry Disruption
UPDATE 24/07/18
"Ulysses will be back on the Dublin/Holyhead/Dublin route by Friday 27th July if repair works are successful this week. The next 2-3 days are critical and we will be in a position to comprehensively update mid-week. Until then Epsilon will continue to operate on Ulysses schedule."

UPDATE 09/07/18
"Ulysses entered drydock in Belfast on 28th June owing to technical difficulties with its Starboard Controllable Pitch Propeller. The investigation and repairs to the vessel were expected to take no longer than 5 days however we have now been informed by service engineers that the issue is more serious than originally anticipated and they expect the vessel will be out of service for a further period of 1 to 2 weeks."
Irish Ferries sincerely apologises for the very serious disruption that Ulysses absence is causing to the freight transport and logistics industry and despite best efforts replacement tonnage cannot be found.
Epsilon will continue to operate on Ulysses schedule as follows:
