STENA LINE celebrated the 25th anniversary of the relocation of its ferry services to Belfast from Larne in 1995. During this time, the Irish Sea’s leading ferry company has achieved a number of key milestones including transporting in excess of 33 million passengers, almost seven million freight units and seven million cars.
When Stena Line established its Belfast operation on 12 November 1995, it operated just three ferries to one port in Scotland. Today, that service has significantly expanded to include seven vessels operating year round services to Cairnryan, Birkenhead (Liverpool) and Heysham with a mix of freight and leisure traffic.
