The Port of Immingham is of great strategic importance to Stena Line and we will aim to build on the success we have seen in the unaccompanied freight market. This is a long-term commitment for us and will be integral to expanding our freight operations on our routes between the UK and Continental Europe to serve demand.

Following our signing of the Birkenhead 12 Quays deal earlier this year, this agreement reenforces our long-term commitment to Peel Ports Group and further strengthens our partnership. Heysham is an important hub for our Irish Sea business and we’ve been developing our operations here year on year.

The launch of our new freight service between Dublin and Birkenhead secures an important trade route on the UK/Ireland corridor and further strengthens our position on the Irish Sea.

It is with a heavy heart we have reached the point, where we have to discontinue our route between Sweden and Finland. This has been a very difficult decision, but after considering all aspects we are convinced that we have made the right decision.

Stena Line has an ambitious agenda to strengthen our position as a leader in sustainable shipping and this deal will give us the tools to grow long term in Gothenburg - we expect a continued increase of demand from our passengers and freight customers and in Arendal we will be able to expand while also supporting Gothenburg to develop sustainably.

This investment shows our dedication to sustainability and our strategy of moving towards new sustainable fuels. The NewMax vessels will also meet the growing demand from customers, adding significant capacity to allow logistics operators to grow their business in the region.

The Baltic Sea is a major growth region for Stena Line and our investment in Ventspils shows how committed we are to develop our business with Latvia. With this strategic move we have secured a long-term position in an essential part in our European network and I am looking forward to working with our customers and partners to continue expanding in the region.

I’m really looking forward to discussing future logistics solutions with our customers at this important event - customer feedback from surveys help us to continuously develop our offers and services but meeting face-to-face at these events is a great opportunity for dialogues with all stakeholders in the industry.

The addition of our new modern Stena Ebba ferry in the South Baltic Sea is Stena Line’s response to customer demand in a dynamic economic area that continues to grow.

“Through this deal Stena Line Travel Group will vastly increase its position in the Dutch travel market and further broaden its offer of Nordic holiday products to Dutch consumers.  We are determined to be the first choice for Dutch tourists to the Nordics, Iceland or Great Britain. The collective knowledge and skills among all our employees when it comes to North European holidays is unprecedented.  We are thrilled to have taken this next step in creating a European Travel Group truly specialised in North European destinations.  We look forward to working with Voigt Travel and its sister companies.”

“This is a great development for Voigt Travel and its employees who, in recent decades, has pioneered tourist travel to several Nordic destinations and made them accessible with charter flights from the Netherlands and Belgium.  With this deal we have now found a new owner for Voigt Travel who has the strength and resources to help us to continue our expansion.  As part of Stena Line Travel Group, we can further strengthen our position, together with Buro Scanbrit and Scandinavian Wintersports, the Finnish company Ruka Safaris, and realise our ambitions for further growth.  I am excited for what the future holds!”

At Stena Line, we never forget our heritage. Sten A Olsson was a real entrepreneur, and it was his ambition, flexibility and everlasting curiosity that shaped our DNA. Over the six decades that have passed since he opened his first shipping service, we have continued to challenge existing ideas and models within our business. This is what has enabled us to develop into a leading ferry operator.

The Baltic Sea is an economic area that is still characterised by dynamic growth. Customer demand is growing on a daily basis, and we are in the lucky position to cater for this demand, not only with the right service attitude and hard work, but also with a modern and efficient fleet. And when we can add a beautiful new ship like Stena Estelle on a day like this, we are even more convinced that the success of the last years in this region has only been a start.

Stena Line has been a trailblazer for the industry when it comes to implementing sustainable technology, operations and structures, and we are aiming to retain our position as a leading company in this area.

We are very excited to introduce our new ferry Stena Estelle, which will boost our offer for both freight customers and passengers. This all-new vessel is the most modern in our fleet and unmatched in capacity, efficiency design and service setup.

The southern Baltic Sea is a key region for Stena Line and our route Karlskrona-Gdynia is a backbone for our ambition to grow and expand further.

We are convinced that in Life Finder Systems International and Cetasol, we have two much deserving winners, and we wish them the best of luck on their future endeavours.

Flexibility and growing with our customers is key for Stena Line, and with the E-Flexers that we are now deploying on the route Karlskrona-Gdynia we are striving to offer a fleet that is as flexible as possible, responding to the needs of our customers.

This new service is primarily an outcome of customer dialogue and market demand. But to bring it to life you also need to be somewhat entrepreneurial, and it requires hard work, a dedicated team and strong commitment to make a new route a success.

Transporting passengers and freight in the Baltic Sea region for almost a decade now, we keep constant track of our customers’ needs and demand, and are delighted to improve our customers’ experience. Compared to ferries that previously operated the route, Stena Scandica and Stena Baltica provide 30% more freight capacity and 70% more cabin space, more extensive leisure options, and a more pleasant travel experience on our vessels and routes to and from Latvia. Both new ferries are outstanding additions to Stena Line’s fleet of vessels for our customers, and this is just the first step on the path to our major plan to double the number of passengers on this Baltic Sea route over a three year period.

With our new daily route between Hanko and Nynäshamn, we heavily expand and strengthen our position in the Baltic Sea.

These large, modern, and fuel-efficient next generation ferries are the flag ships in the modernisation of our fleet as well as our development of sustainable shipping.

This collaboration between the steel and the maritime sectors is the first of its kind and demonstrates that by working together companies from different backgrounds can greatly improve their effect on the climate. For Stena Line this is another successful proof of concept for our methanol conversion ferry and a further bridge towards our aim of fossil free shipping

Taking delivery of the large, modern and efficient vessel Stena Scandica is a major milestone for Stena Lineand enables us to continue to grow together with our customers in the Baltic Sea.

The E-Flexer vessels represent an important part of our sustainable growth journey for the future and we look forward to welcoming two more vessels to our fleet next year.

We have seen an increase in demand from our customers across the Baltic Sea region. We are now strengthening our position and customer offer further with new modern vessels, more capacity and an attractive onboard experience on both our routes to and from Latvia during 2021. I am happy to welcome Stena Livia to the Baltic Sea fleet,

Stena Line has now chosen to set the ambitious target to reduce our total carbon dioxide emissions by 30% by 2030, because in the end they need be zero

We need to ensure that we can attract, recruit and keep the best talents by actively recruiting from all genders for all positions.

Halmstad was the right move and the freight volumes have exceeded our expectations

We now move from vision to vessel with the battery powered vessel Stena Elektra.

The new vessel names connect with our Scandinavian heritage as well as the region where they will operate.

We have seen a strong demand among our customers for a regular intermodal service to and from the southern part of Western Europe including France and Spain to and from Scandinavia.

The move to the new ferry terminal is an important part of our expansion in the Baltic Sea and enables us to continue to grow together with our customers.

We are now strengthening our position and customer offer further with new modern vessels, more capacity and an attractive onboard experience on both our routes to and from Latvia during 2021

We have seen an increase in demand from our customers across the wider Baltic Sea region. We are now strengthening our position and customer offer further with new modern vessels and more capacity.

This is an important milestone in the electrification of shipping.

This is an exciting addition to our operations and service to our customers. We are strengthening our position as Europe's leading ferry company and respond to the increased market demand in the Baltic Sea

We believe in continued growth and demand in all our markets and with the new ferries in place we will be well equipped for the future

Ferry travel is the only mode of transport where you can social distance

We aim to be the leader in sustainable shipping and we have high ambitions. During the last ten years we have improved the efficiency with more than 320 energy efficiency actions onboard and onshore.

Stena Line plays an important part in the European logistic network and onboard our ferries our customers transport vital goods such as medicines and supplies for healthcare, as well as fresh food for supermarket shelves. Therefore, we want to highlight the important work undertaken by our key worker seafarers, our colleagues onboard our vessels, in theses challenging times

Being the owner of the world’s first ship with methanol-fuel represented a great step on our journey to become the leader in sustainable shipping

We will do everything in our means to ensure essential supply lines stay operational during what is a very difficult time for the company and the countries that we serve.

This is a tough decision to make, but we are experiencing tough times in general as a company.

Due to the current situation we are facing, we have no choice but to adjust our operations and our costs to limit the drop in demand and secure the continuity of our freight operations

I’m proud that Stena Line continues to shape the industry for the next generation of freight and travel customers

The investment and renovation the two vessels are an important part of the journey to ensure a great travel and onboard experience for our guests also in the future

Taking ownership of Stena Estrid is a major milestone for Stena Line

This project is using AI technology to support our captains and officers to save fuel. By improving the efficiency, we reduce both our costs and our environmental footprint.

Today the first of our five next generation ferries achieved a very important milestone.
