P&O scraps all ferry services telling customers 'book with another operator'

P&O Ferries has suspended services this weekend despite announcing they were set to resume.

The operator's services have been suspended since March when the company axed 800 jobs with sacked crew members being replaced by agency workers. Only yesterday (Thursday) it was announced P&O was ready to start running services this weekend. But today (April 8) the firm announced online that the planned services have been cancelled, with customers advised to book with a different operator.

Posting through the Twitter account P&O Updates, it said: "All P&O Ferries Passenger Services are suspended this weekend. For travel 8/9/10th April please re-book directly with another operator before arriving at the port."
