The Cairnryan–Stranraer transfer, planned around your sailing
This is a journey decided before you arrive: whether the driver watched the sailing, whether the price moved, and whether anyone is standing at the passenger terminal at Cairnryan when you come off. On the Stranraer run we settle all three in advance — the sailing tracked, the fare quoted up front fixed, and a named chauffeur waiting with a board.
Reckon on 10–20 min for the drive, with 15 minutes of complimentary waiting so a slow disembarkation never costs you the car. Every toll sits inside the fare — nothing to settle at the kerb.
