On April 15, Grimaldi announced the entrance of the same market through acquisition and cooperation with Armas Trasmediterranea.
Three of the main players active on the local ferry market will cooperate to provide regular maritime links between Sardinia (Olbia) and mainland Italy (Civitavecchia) under the next maritime continuity scheme.
Following a dedicated tender launched earlier this year, the transport ministry accepted the proposal received by Tirrenia Cin, Grimaldi Group and Grandi Navi Veloci which decided to share the losses expected for the winter period (from October to May) but in change they will be the only three operators authorized to serve the same link during the summer season.
More specifically Compagnia Italiana di Navigazione (Moby group) will be the company which operates the route from October to May.
Last week Grimaldi announced the start of an Antwerp – Cork roro feeder service.
Now CLdN says it will increase sailings between the Continent and Ireland, from eight to ten in each direction, on a weekly basis.
In its annual report, SIEM Industries says that, “RoPax HONFLEUR is expected to be delivered in the third quarter this year. The intention is to sell the vessel or charter it out long-term. There appears to be good demand for vessels of the HONFLEUR’s specification.”
SIEM Industries owns the ferry which was initially ordered by Brittany Ferries but then rejected after the long delays and the trouble at the FSG Shipyard. The vessel was used as part of the settlement of the Company’s historic involvement with the yard.
The vessel is currently under construction at Fosen.

DFDS Awarded Tender To Operate New Duty-Free Shop In Calais
DFDS has since 1 January 2021, in accordance with the new Brexit trade agreement, offered duty-free sales on board its four ropax routes connecting the UK and the EU.
Following a tender, DFDS has been awarded the right to operate a new duty-free shore-based shop in the Port of Calais. The 1,000 m2 shop is expected to open in October 2021.
In the Dunkirk port terminal, operated by DFDS, a shore-based duty-free shop of 700 m2 is expected to open in July 2021. Both shops will provide convenient access for cars.
It is expected that the new shops will attract new travellers for day trips to the Hauts-de- France region once travel restrictions are eased.
DFDS expects to replace CALAIS SEAWAYS with COTE D’OPALE this summer on the Dover-Calais route. The new ferry will feature a 1,100 m2 duty-free shop.
In July, SILJA SYMPHONY will call Port of Ystad on a domestic cruise, combining Stockholm with Visby on the island of Gotland – and the scenic city of Ystad with surroundings. This is possible thanks to the investment in two new berths in the outer port, opened this year. The vessel will call berth no. 7 and passengers will participate in excursions or visit on their own.
