Irish Ferries Rosslare -Pembroke Dock ferry route is currently suspended.
On the operator's sailing updates webpage, the Ireland-Wales route has a warning update.
It reads: "Irish Ferries regrets to advise that the 8.45 Rosslare to Pembroke Blue Star 1 sailing on May 3 has now been cancelled due to ship disruption. You can be accommodated on the Stena Line sailing to Fishguard instead."
The warning is in place on all dates up to May 5 going both ways.
The 'NI Ferry Site blog' reported the Pembroke Dock to Rosslare route was currently not running. The site, which gives updates on the shipping industry, said the reason was that Blue Star 1, the ferry that services the Pembroke Dock to Rosslare route, has been moved to Dublin while W.B Yeats, which serves the Dublin to Cherbourg route, receives maintenance.
NI Ferry Site blog said: "In order to release W.B. Yeats to have a new upper bow door to be fitted, Irish Ferries has moved Blue Star 1 north to take over the Dublin to Cherbourg route.
For further details of the dry-docking at H&W, Belfast, the Western Telegraph reports.
As reported only in mid-March, W.B.Yeats was also in H&W Belfast when the cruiseferry had repairs to the upper car-deck following damage in heavy seas.
Afloat will have further sailing updates on Irish Ferries fleet movements to reflect the changes on both routes.
