Operated by DFDS Seaways on the route

The DFDS ferry family has been joined by two new ferries, the Aura Seaways and the Luna Seaways. These two large ferries will run on the routes Klaipeda-Karlshamn and Klaipeda-Kiel to make your trip and rest as pleasant as possible. Each ship has 250 cabins that can accommodate 600 passengers. Cargo capacity of ships reaches 4.5 thousand linear meters. In other words, they can hold up to 4.5 km of cars parked in a row. Compared to other ferries, these ferries do not have a seating area, everyone is allowed to stay in cabins, and there are separate areas for truck drivers and passengers. Aura Seaways is 230 meters long and 32 meters wide. The ship develops travels up to 23 knots (up to 40 km/h). The ship can carry 12,750 tons of cargo. The ferries are scrubber-fitted and therefore comply with the latest EEDI (Energy Efficiency Design Index) requirements. It is estimated that the CO2 emissions attributed to one trailer are approximately 20% lower than on other ferries on the Klaipeda-Karlshamn and Klaipeda-Kiel routes.
