Can I add passengers later for free to my booking for the DFDS Dover-Calais / Dunkirk ferry?
I am planning to travel from the UK to France via one of the DFDS ferries. Currently we only know that there will be two of us, but there is a chance that a third and a fourth person might accompany us as well. As this is a car ferry the amount of passengers doesn't increase the cost of booking, but I have to name everyone during booking (this is in contrast to the Eurotunnel, where they don't care about the names of the passengers at booking time).
Their FAQ site only states what I should do in case there is a different number of passengers for the return trip. Is it possible to add new passengers to my booking for free at a later date after booking? It seems like I could just add everyone's names to the booking and cross them out later, but that seems like an overkill.

Concerning myself, it is free (no added cost) to add a passenger (less than 27hrs before departure exactly when I did it). Make sure your bookings details are right. Data treatment can be surprising sometimes.
Also heard 2 years ago that you can add someone directly at the control desk of the ferry company but I can not remember which one it was.

The easiest and cheapest way to make a change to your booking is to log into My Account and request the amendment there. With some ferry companies we'll be able to confirm your amendment straight away, but if we can't, we'll do our best to have it confirmed within 48 hours.Can I change my ferry booking with DFDS?
Passengers can cancel their reservation or change some details via the DFDS website or by calling them over the phone. You can change or cancel your booking on any of these routes online, do it here. If after modification your reservation has an amount lower than its original value, the difference is not refundable.Can I get an earlier ferry DFDS?
