Fastnet Ferry Figures Smash 2010 Target
The passenger figure represents four-times the capacity of the Liberty Stadium, Swansea which is to host the rugby Heineken Cup clash between Swansea Neath Ospreys and Munster on Saturday 18 December.
The 10-hour ferry service operated by Fastnet Line also carried 31,000 vehicles and statistics suggest a significant boost for the Swansea Bay economy with about 40% of all passengers so far travelling from Cork to the south Wales region. The route is served by the MV Julia which had been sailing in the Baltic. The 1982 built vessel is capable of carrying more than 1,800 passengers and 400 cars.
Fastnet Line will run all-year-round in 2011 and has set a revised target of 120,000 passengers.
On a seasonal note, Christmas gift vouchers are available from Fastnet Line, for more information logon HERE
