Liverpool FC fans travelling to France for the Champions League final and families going on holiday for half-term face long queues in Dover.

Thousands of fans went to the port in Kent on Friday to board ferries to Paris, ahead of Saturday’s match against Real Madrid.

Ferries were extra busy and there were long queues to get into the port, with families travelling to the continent during the school holidays.

Liam Devlin, who was among those queuing in the port, wrote on Twitter: “Absolute chaos at the Port of Dover.

“Taking around three hours to get through to the gates to even board any ferry, double the amount of time they advise.

“No organisation whatsoever. Shambles.”

Irish Ferries warned customers to expect delays of “up to three hours” through port security and check-in.

P&O Ferries added that traffic on a key road into Dover port was “at a standstill” and there were also long queues on the A20 approaching the town.

It added: “Traffic is expected to remain heavy today.”
