Port of Dover Expects 18,000 Cars This Weekend Amid Border Delays

AI Summary

Summarized by AI from the source below

The Port of Dover anticipates around 18,000 cars to pass through between Friday and Sunday, with Saturday projected as the busiest day. This is the first holiday period since the EU's new Entry Exit System (EES) implementation, which started on April 10. However, some biometric machines necessary for processing are not operational yet, leading to potential delays. Passengers may board the next available ferry if they miss their original sailing due to these delays, and border authorities have the option to suspend EES if severe congestion occurs.
