Pride logo on hovertravel craft

Rainbow logo on Hovercraft signifies Hovertravel’s dedication to Isle of Wight Pride

Hovertravel is showcasing its long association with Isle of Wight Pride by adding a rainbow logo to the front of both its hovercraft.

Replacing the all-white branding within the union flag livery, the logo now includes all the colours from the current Pride flag.

Sowerbutts: Our support for Isle of Wight Pride stretches back several years
Pat Sowerbutts, Partnerships and Development Manager at Hovertravel, explains,

“Our support for Isle of Wight Pride stretches back several years and we wanted to use the month of June to celebrate our connection to this event.

“With a place in the parade our teams get involved in creating our float and enjoy the amazing atmosphere on the day.

“We are also focused on making it as easy as possible for customers to cross the Solent for the day with an early bird offer and extra crossings.”

Additional crossings
Hovertravel is operating additional later flights on Friday 14th and Saturday 15th July with departures from Ryde at 21.30 and 22.30 respectively, giving customers the chance to enjoy all the festivities and return home to the mainland the same day.

Newman: We are delighted to work closely with them
Andy Newman from Isle of Wight Pride adds,

“Hovertravel has always been a committed partner for us, as in addition to the extra flights and promotional support they make introductions, advise on transport options and even recommend sponsors.

“The added value of having them involved in the event has been demonstrated year after year and we are delighted to work closely with them.”
