Public splashes out on Jeanie trip

LESS than a handful of seats are left on the Jeanie Johnston famine replica ship that sails to the US later this year.

It’s an expensive way of travelling to the States but the public has been happy to splash out and only three places are left on board.

For a plum 10,000 you can join 29 other guests and 11 crew members on the 16 million ship.
