Finnlines and the Port of Långnäs have opened a modern new passenger terminal in Åland, enhancing the travel experience on one of the Baltic Sea’s fastest-growing ferry routes.
The €3 million investment supports rising passenger demand on the Naantali–Långnäs–Kapellskär service operated by the Superstar-class vessels FINNSIRIUS and FINNCANOPUS.
Designed for Growth and Passenger Comfort
Located directly next to the berth, the new terminal shortens walking distances and speeds up boarding and disembarkation.
Key features include:
- Approximately 500 m² of floor space
- Modern waiting areas
- Direct access to the vessels
- Improved accessibility and barrier-free movement
Passenger numbers on the route have increased significantly since FINNSIRIUS and FINNCANOPUS entered service, confirming the popularity of Finnlines’ premium RoPax offering.
Strengthening Åland’s Tourism Potential
Finnlines sees substantial growth opportunities in Åland and aims to work closely with local stakeholders to improve regional accessibility and tourism appeal.
According to CEO Thomas Doepel, the company wants to be a strong partner for Åland’s tourism and hospitality sectors while continuing to provide reliable transport links.
Strategic Investment in Baltic Connectivity
The terminal forms part of the Port of Långnäs’ long-term development programme. The project strengthens Åland’s role as an important transport hub between Finland and Sweden.
By combining modern infrastructure with high-quality vessels, Finnlines continues to invest in both customer experience and regional connectivity across the Baltic Sea.
