Commenting on the hub, Stena Line Travel Commercial Manager Irish Sea, Orla Noonan, said: “We know rest and relaxation are important for our passengers, especially for those with an onward journey on the other side.

We've got a favour to ask

More people are reading Afloat.ie than ever thanks to the power of the internet but we're in stormy seas because advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news sites, we haven't put up a paywall because we want to keep our marine journalism open.

Afloat.ie is Ireland's only full-time marine journalism team and it takes time, money and hard work to produce our content.

So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
