On 12 April 2026, Attica Group’s latest additions, AERO HIGHSPEED 4 and AERO HIGHSPEED 5, arrived in Greece on board the cargo vessel JIN FU.
The two vessels, formerly named MEI ZHU HU and JIN ZHU HU, were acquired from China in March. Before their sale, they operated on the Zhongshan–Hong Kong route and were delivered from Guangzhou Panyu Lianhuashan Port.
They have now been sent to the ONEX yard at Elefsis for refit ahead of entry into service this summer. The vessels are expected to replace FLYING CAT 3, FLYING CAT 4, FLYING CAT 5, and FLYING CAT 6 on Attica’s Saronic routes.
Built in Norway by Brødrene Aa in 2016 and 2017, the two highspeed craft can carry 270 passengers and have a service speed of 35 knots.
