Copenhagen, 2014-08-22 14:28 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Announcement no. 60
On 14 June 2014, DFDS launched a new service between Travemünde in Germany and Klaipeda in Lithuania to meet customer requirements for an unaccompanied ro-ro freight service. The route opening was part of an overall adaptation of DFDS’ route network in the Baltic Sea, as announced on 8 May 2014.
The current trade dispute between the EU and Russia is, however, significantly impacting the route’s freight volumes. Route operations will therefore be suspended and customers will instead be offered capacity on the Kiel-Klaipeda route. The route’s single ro-ro freight ship will be deployed elsewhere in DFDS’ route Network.
