Shipping company Brittany Ferries has confirmed plans to introduce a new “cruise-ferry” that will serve Irish passengers travelling to and from Spain later this year.
The company will replace the Connemara, a predominantly freight vessel with little facilities onboard, with a more “tourism-oriented” ship.
The journey from Rosslare to Bilbao, Spain, takes about 27 to 33 hours, with passengers spending at least one night onboard the ship.
