The AA has warned of more chaos for drivers after holidaymakers faced hours-long queues at Folkestone on Sunday
Jack Cousens, head of roads policy for the AA, said earlier: "Dover has now recovered, but Folkestone has become the hotspot of holiday hell.
"Drivers heading to Folkestone need to be prepared. We have seen that many are waiting for several hours before they get to the terminal, so all the pre-journey vehicle checks are key along with carrying plenty of food, water and entertainment for younger travellers."Manesh Luthra, a father of three, left Essex with his family at 4am on Saturday and got to the Eurotunnel terminal by 5.45am ahead of their 7.50am train."We moved metres in hours.
To the east of Folkestone, travellers hoping to use the ferries at Dover had a much better experience than fellow travellers on Friday and Saturday.
