The MV Gaudos will be out of service for dry-dock maintenance from Wednesday 7 January to Wednesday 4 February, Gozo Channel has said.

"During this time, the company will be operating a temporary timetable for all other vessels."

The temporary timetable will be published on the Gozo Channel website and social media channels. "Passengers are advised to check the latest timetable before traveling."

Gozo Channel apologized for any inconvenience caused by the MV Gaudos dry-dock.

"The company is committed to providing safe and reliable ferry services between the two islands," it said.
