    For some odd reason, the system will always choose Wightlink over Red Funnel. I should not have to fiddle around clicking on the ferry route in the middle of the Solent just to get it to force usage to Red Funnel

    Wrong/missing ferry

    Trying to plan a route that involves using Red Funnel Ferries to Cowes, IOW, from Southampton, but the routing keeps sending me to Portsmouth to use Wightlink Ferries instead.

      Hi

      You can zoom in at the dashed ferry line and right click at it. Then select Add ferry to add it to your plan.

      Unfortunately we have had some problems with some ferries but we are looking at it.

    Routing issue via Isle of Wight Ferries

    I am trying to plan my route via Southampton UK Red Funnel ferries to East Cowes Isle of Wight. The ABRP routing is determined to send me via Wight Link Ferries in Portsmouth, which is not the ferry I will be using. Is there a way to force it to recognise the crossing?
