After a three-week break due to planned dry-docking, the Tallink Silja Line’s passenger vessel Baltic Princess is back in regular traffic on the company’s Turku–Stockholm route  boasting renewed main passenger areas.

“We have focused particularly on upgrading the key passenger spaces to offer even more exceptional travel experience to our guests. The improvements are immediately noticeable upon boarding, with redesigned restaurants and shops offering better service and convenience for travelers. We are excited to welcome passengers back to the renewed and more comfortable Baltic Princess,” said Taru Backman, intendant aboard the cruise vessel.

The company’s vessel has undergone an approximately 8m renovation at the BLRT Turku Repair Yard in Naantali, Finland, with nearly €4m allocated to a complete overhaul of the main passenger areas taking the travel experience to a new level of comfort and enjoyment.
