Frequently asked questions
How do I get a cabin on Portsmouth to Santander if it's sold out?
Set a FerryAlert for your sailing date. We check cabin availability continuously and email you the moment one opens up, whether it's a standard, outside, or pet-friendly cabin.
Can I get a pet-friendly cabin on Portsmouth to Santander?
Yes — select 'pet-friendly cabin' when creating your alert and we'll watch specifically for those. Pet-friendly cabins are rarer and book up quickly, making an alert especially useful.
What types of cabin can I set an alert for?
You can alert for any cabin, a pet-friendly cabin, and optionally filter by position (outside/window or inside) and berth count (2-berth or 4-berth).
Do cabin alerts work differently to ferry space alerts?
Yes. A cabin alert monitors for a specific cabin type on your sailing — it doesn't require you to track vehicle space, making it ideal if you already have a booking and want to add a cabin.
How quickly do cabin cancellations go?
Often within minutes. That's why an automated alert is far more reliable than refreshing the Brittany Ferries website manually.
