Arriving in Symi on Friday in two weeks, after a 14-year absence. I like to think that nothing has changed, but I know that's an impossible dream!
We wanted to take the 'proper' ferry from Rhodes via Panormitis, but the shaky online booking system claimed there were no places. So have booked us on the DODEKANISOS EXPRESS. This is where I ask for advice.....
My wife absolutely hates travelling sealed up in a catamaran ferry and I see from pictures on the web that DODEKANISOS EXPRESS appears to have some seats outside in the breeze. Can anyone tell me if passengers are allowed to use the deck seats and, if so, how do I wangle them?
Is it a matter of being first on board? The Cat sails from Rhodes at 08.30 - just how early should one get to the port to stand a chance of sitting outside?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
