You could have booked a non shared room

Commercial drivers no longer have that option first time sharing since march 2020

Don't truck drivers just share rooms with whoever, it's not a big deal, somewhere to rest your head only

I kinda get that pre covid it was common enough on shorter crossings but the Dublin Cherbourg is a right stretch. Haven’t shared a room since march 2020 and it’s normally 4berth cabin with 2 drivers.

Be impossible not to have some conversation,,, 18 hrs is a long time

I find it nearly impossible to have a conversation while masterbating.

Get triple jabbed. Wear a mask. That fixes everything.

Where are you sailing from New Zealand?

Ya that would be the extreme answer. But like I had said you could pull your wallet out and book the cabin out since its that much of an issue.

Sounds like you got yourself into the situation and want to pass the responsibility of your actions onto Irish Ferries.

Whaaa..... 👶 first world problems really do suck.

Tbf apologies for the extreme answering. I did try to book out the room but freight drivers bo longer have that option. I’m just a bit pissed that it’s such a small room for two drivers on a long sailing. Kinda hoped we were past this shit with covid etc.and having a moan kinda like when people are expected to stop working from home

If they sleep in the opposite direction to each other, then their feet will be six feet apart.

Looks like most other times I travelled with Irish Ferries. Its a decent bed, so not too bad.

Social distancing doesn't make any difference to COVID, it's a fine aerosol virus that spreads as easy as cigarette smoke. So being 2m apart doesn't protect you and unless you are wearing an FPP2 mask correctly, which very few do and can't be done for 18 hours on ferry, face mask don't protect you either.
