This Is How Axferries’ Renewed and Partially Electrified Ships Will Look Like
The new operator of the Ålandstrafiken ferry network, Axferries—a joint venture between the Åland government and Finferries—has unveiled its new livery.
Background: The formation of Axferries was prompted by the bankruptcy of Nordic Jet Line in the summer of 2024, which posed significant risks to the infrastructure of Åland’s archipelago transportation. In response, Finferries’ associated company, Ansgar Ab, intervened to stabilize the situation. Subsequently, Finferries acquired full ownership of Ansgar and initiated discussions with the Åland government, leading to the establishment of Axferries.
Objectives: Axferries aims to be a long-term operator in Åland’s archipelago traffic, focusing on providing stability and quality. The company is committed to developing and renewing Åland’s archipelago traffic in collaboration with Finferries, leveraging their expertise in green transition to work towards climate-smart, stable, and efficient maritime traffic.
