Finnlines expands Ireland-Belgium freight service with second vessel 

To meet the increased capacity and frequency demand, Finnlines is strengthening its Ireland–Belgium freight service. Customers on the Rosslare-Zeebrugge route, connecting Ireland to Europe’s mainland, will see a major increase in capacity, thanks to the addition of a second ro-ro vessel. 

MS Finnpulp will join MS Finnwave on the route departing from Zeebrugge on 23 February.  

Finnlines launched the route between Rosslare and Zeebrugge in July 2022. 

Antonio Raimo, line manager at Finnlines: ‘We are adding an additional departure from both ports on our Ireland-Belgium service. We have seen increased demand and are pleased to be able to offer additional capacity. By adding a second vessel and expanding our service, we strengthen our product to better serve our Irish and European markets. We provide an excellent transport link for Irish trade to the Continent by offering tailor-made capacity for our customers whose business depends on reliable sea transportation services.’
