"Our EUR 500 million Green Newbuilding Programme was completed in February this year when our new ro-pax vessel, Finncanopus, started to operate from Naantali via Långnäs to Kapellskär.

Therefore, we are able to reduce our older fleet and cut our costs for greater efficiency and for improved logistic service. We are also seeking further improvement by adjusting our fleet operations so that we can combine cargo flows more efficiently and fully utilise the economies of scale of our vessels and the whole fleet. This also includes that we sell vessels, which have too small capacity and/or no longer fulfil our environmental requirements," commented Tom Pippingsköld, Finnlines' President and CEO.
