Millions of Britons hitting the roads and jetting abroad for the Easter bank holiday are facing travel chaos after Storm Nelson as trains are cancelled and ferry passengers endure major delays at Dover.
As the Port of Dover warned of two-hour delays on Friday morning, huge queues could be seen building up there, after ferry company DFDS reported on Thursday that its services were running with delays “due to strong winds in the Channel”.
And once again there are long waits for French passport control at the Kent port, where frontier formalities are carried out before boarding ferries to France. Since Brexit, officials are required to scrutinise and stamp UK passports.
Around 2.6 million car journeys are expected to be made on Good Friday, while two million British holidaymakers are set to fly abroad.
