    Just had the following statement in from the Port spokesperson ..Many thanks to them

    * *

    The Port of Dover is on standby and is ready to accept a potential influx of foot passengers if the ash cloud moves South. We are liaising with the ferry operators on providing additional passenger capacity. The call has gone out for staff volunteers and plans are in place to provide essential provisions for passengers such as refreshments, toiletries, nappies and baby milk if required. Our contingency plans are tried and tested and we are well versed in coping with situations such as these. During the previous ash cloud crisis the Port successfully handled ten times as many foot passengers as normal all looking for a reliable way home, enough to fill 600 Boeing 747s
