Finnlines Plc (Finnish: Finnlines Oyj, Swedish: Finnlines Abp)[2] is a shipping operator of ro-ro and passenger services in the Baltic Sea and the North Sea. It is a subsidiary of the Grimaldi Group. Finnlines’ sea transports are concentrated in the Baltic and the North Sea. Finnlines’ passenger-freight vessels offer services from Finland to Germany and via Åland to Sweden as well as from Sweden to Germany. The Company has subsidiaries in Germany, Belgium, Great Britain, Sweden, Denmark and Poland. In addition to sea transportation, the Company provides port services in Finland in Helsinki and Turku.
Finnlines’ roll-on/roll-off services cover the Finnish ports of Hanko, Helsinki, Kotka, Turku and Uusikaupunki, offering connections with Estonian, Polish, German, Danish, British, Dutch, Belgian and Spanish ports.
Three Star-class ropax vessels (see roll-on/roll-off vessel variations) operate between Helsinki and Travemünde. For passengers it is the only direct connection by sea between Finland and Continental Europe.
The other ropax services consist of the route between Malmö, Sweden, and Travemünde, Germany and between Naantali and the Åland Islands, Finland, and Kapellskär, Sweden.
