Brittany Ferries is now offering on-board Wi-Fi internet access throughout its fleet of cruise ferries linking the UK with France and Spain. The company has long been known for high standards of on-board dining, facilities and entertainment, and now internet access, via satellite has been added to the wide range of on-board services.

Now passengers with their own Wi-Fi enabled computers will be able to benefit from the service, allowing them to access the internet and stay in touch with the office or with friends and family during the crossing.  Passengers wishing to use the service may purchase access time from the information desk on board. Additionally, Brittany Ferries' ships are equipped with on-board mobile telephone networks, allowing passenger to make and receive telephone calls at sea.

David Longden, Managing Director, comments "Brittany Ferries has an ongoing commitment to providing top-quality services for its passengers and we are constantly seeking new ways to meet their needs. This is a valuable new service, allowing them to do business, send emails and surf the web even when in the middle of the Channel or Bay of Biscay".
