Sorry to be a pain with what must be a constantly occurring question but; can anyone advise me whether the Dodecanese Pride runs from Rhodes to Symi at 1500hrs on a Wednesday?
I am paying my annual visit from 18th June and there seems to be a lack of transport this year. :idea:

The ferries have been a very interesting problem this year. The Dodekanisos page says that the Express will be running on Wednesday morning but not the Pride. http://www.12ne.gr/en/

ANES give a selection of trips on Wednesdays. http://www.anes.gr/index.php
Including the Proteus (Hurray!!) at noon and the Symi II. at 19:00.

Enjoy your trip.

Thanks for the replies; each website I vist seems to give conflicting info. I suppose I should be used to that now, having made my way to Symi, independently, for about 15 years!
If anyone hears any further news, please let me know.

It all very confusing, some links still lead to the Dodekanisos timetable up to 30 May 2008!

Just heard from my cousin who's in Symi now that we should all be Ok for the early evening ferry on Wednesday. They had to use the Aegli last wednesday and it was packed the the proverbial gunnels.Not sure of time though

Someone just succeeded in booking on a 15.00 Spanos next Wednesday even though it doesn't actually appear on the website yet... :idea:

Just heard that the Dodec Pride is running the 1500hrs service, but not bookable until 11th June for the 18th June run. Just my luck that the plane will be delayed from Gatwick. What could possibly go wrong!

The new timetable for the Spanos boats (pride and express) started today. There is now a boat from Rhodes on Wednesdays at 1500hrs. The evening boat is now the Symi II leaving at 1900hrs
