Timetables

Timetables are a vital part of how we communicate when and how our services operate. They help customers plan journeys, connect with other transport operators, and make the most of the opportunities our ferry network provides.

Under CHFS3, weโ€™ve made a clear commitment to greater transparency and accountability. Publishing the key dates in our timetable planning and consultation calendar is one way weโ€™re delivering on that promise. The calendar sets out when formal consultation takes place, the decision points, and when final timetables will be available for booking.

This approach is part of our wider vision to improve every journey. By sharing these dates openly, we aim to give communities, businesses, and partners the clarity they need to plan ahead. Itโ€™s a simple but important step towards making our communication timely, consistent, and aligned with the values that underpin CHFS3.
