Ro-ro freight operator Seatruck Ferries announced today an increase in capacity with an extra two roundtrips on the Irish Sea central corridor Dublin Port-Liverpool route this week.

The new sailings arise from an increased demand which will see the first additional roundtrip sailing depart Liverpool (this afternoon) at 16:00 and returning from the Irish capital tomorrow (Wednesday) morning at 04:00.

Customers will now have the option of 4 departure times from Liverpool on Tuesday and Wednesday and 4 departure times from Dublin on Wednesday and Thursday.

It is only just over a month ago when Seatruck announced the resumption of passenger (motorist-only) sailings following lifting of Covid-19 travel restrictions. Customers have the entire operator's Irish Sea route network to choice from of the following routes: Dublin-Liverpool, Dublin-Heysham and Warrenpoint-Liverpool.

Combined there are 7 ships on these routes served by the 'P' series and larger 'Heyham-Max'/FSG ro-ro freighters. The fleet has a freight capacity ranging from 100-135 un-accompanied trailers and 12 passengers can be accommodated on each ship.
