A new ferry service operating between Cork and Swansea, which was due to begin on Monday, has been postponed for a week.

Operating company Fastnet Line said the delay is due to technical difficulties.

Fastnet Line re-launched the route after they raised €3m from the public and other bodies.

The service was last operated by Swansea Cork Ferries in 2006.

The scheduled sailings on Wednesday and Thursday have also been cancelled.

Passengers affected by the cancellations will be offered a 50% discount when they book again with the company.
