Fast Ferries

Coastal shipping operator Fast Ferries has added a fourth vessel to its fleet after the acquisition of a high-speed ferry from Turkey.
Formerly known as the Turgut Ozal and renamed the Thunder, the new vessel will arrive in Greece in the next few days.

Large passenger shipping companies no longer dominate the Greek market. According to a study by XRTC Business Consultants, the big players, Attica Group (which operates Blue Star, Super Fast and Hellenic Seaways), ANEK and Minoan Lines, accounted for 38 percent of sea passenger traffic in 2018, down from 57 percent in 2014.
