The following operational factors influenced the development.
ESTONIA-FINLAND:
The introduction of M/S Star and her frequent departure times have had a positive effect to the volumes.
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.
FINLAND-GERMANY:
The changes in the sales network have resulted the decrease in the passenger volumes and increase in the cargo unit volumes.
FINLAND-SWEDEN:
M/S Sky Wind was sold in August 2007 and didn't operate for 10 days.
Additional vessel, M/S Gute, was chartered in to operate between Turku and Stockholm in July and August of the previous year which resulted the higher volumes compared to this year operations.
