live service status
The Red Funnel team strives to keep our passengers updated about any potential travel disruptions, delays, or changes to service status. Below you’ll find our latest travel updates as well as the live status of the next 15 departures from the Isle of Wight and Southampton, along with our vessel map displaying the latest positions of our ferries.
Travel Updates
Due to ongoing essential maintenance, our revised vehicle ferry timetable has been extended, and we will be operating on a two-boat timetable until Monday 9 June 2025 inclusive.
We plan to return to a full, three-boat service from Tuesday 10 June 2025.
Customers with bookings over this period will be contacted with any updates to their travel times and will have the option to amend or cancel their sailing accordingly. If you'd like to make changes to your booking, please visit our amend / cancellation page.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused to our customers and thank you for your patience and understanding. Please continue to check our service status for the latest sailing updates.
Our maintenance work is essential to ensuring the resilience of our service ahead of the summer season. For more information regarding this maintenance and our revised timetable click here.
