The following operational factors influenced the development.
ESTONIA-FINLAND
Compared to the July of previous financial year, there have been major changes in the fleet and operating concept. The product offering has improved for both passengers and cargo customers. Introduction of M/S Star and her frequent departures have helped to increase significantly all volumes and also the market share.
M/S Autoexpress 3 and M/S Autoexpress 4 have been sold and therefore the vessels were not in operations in July 2007.
ESTONIA-SWEDEN
M/S Vana Tallinn does not operate any more between Paldiski-Kapellskär, but was there last year.
LATVIA-SWEDEN
The operations of two vessels and everyday departures to both destinations compared to one vessel operations in previous financial year have increased the volumes on Latvia-Sweden route.
