Stena Line is to invest approximately £14 million ($18.9 million) to upgrade guest accommodation and public spaces onboard the 11 ferries in its Irish Sea fleet.

The operator will extensively renovate cabins, increase the number of pet-friendly cabins, modernise family entertainment areas and enhance the Stena Plus lounges.

“This investment reflects our commitment to continuously improving the onboard experience for our customers,” said Orla Noonan, commercial travel manager. “By acting on feedback, we have delivered a range of enhancements – from upgraded family entertainment and contemporary lounge spaces to expanded pet facilities. We are passionate about delivering an excellent travel experience and this substantial programme of work allows us to meet and exceed our customer’s expectations.”

Stena Line operates seven routes on the Irish Sea between Ireland and Great Britain – three from Belfast, two from Dublin and one from Rosslare.

“This investment demonstrates our dedication to delivering the highest standards of safety, efficiency, comfort and reliability for our customers,” said Mark Scouler, fleet manager for the Irish Sea at Stena Line. “By upgrading and modernising our vessels, we ensure that Stena Line remains the leader for the Irish Sea freight and travel market. We continually seek to invest in our vessels and provide a premium sustainable service for all our customers.”
