DFDS acquired Stena ferry
DFDS has acquired thr 'Stena Vinga' from thr Stena Line, bringing the vessel into its owned fleet after operating it on charter since the Jersey service launched in March 2025. Post-acquisition, the ferry will be reflagged under the UK flag and renamed to align with DFDS's fleet. The company plans to create 70 new positions, including cadets and apprentices, to support continued growth on the Jersey-UK/France routes. The deal closes in November 2026.

Next week, DFDS will take over the ferry service to Jersey from the Condor Ferries. On the route between Jersey and Portsmouth, the 'Stena Vinga', which has a capacity of 1,538 lane meters, will be deployed, which was recently sailing on the route between Frederikshavn and Gothenburg, a.o. Right now, the 'Stena Vinga', chartered to DFDS, was practicing port maneuvers in Portsmouth and Jersey from March 18-20, 2025, so that it is ready to begin operations on March 28, 2025.

Stena Vinga chartered to DFDS
Stena Line has been awarded a charter for the 'Stena Vinga' from March 2025 and the end of the year. The vessel will enter a contracted service in England for DFDS between Portsmouth and Jersey from March 28, and operate evening departures from Jersey and morning departures from Portsmouth and make five rotations per week during the high season.At the beginning of December it was clear that DFDS had won a tender for the service for the next 15 years, which means the end of Condor Ferries' 60-year history of service to the island. DFDS will operate the service with three vessels, one ro-ro vessel and two high-speed vessels. DFDS also plans to invest in three new vessels over the next six years. However, the 'Stena Vinga' will occasionally make a comeback in Stena Line's network and replace other ships, that are scheduled for maintenance. In return, DFDS will provide replacement ships during the periods when the 'Stena Vinga' is not operating the route. The 'Stena Vinga' has a regular position on the route between Gothenburg and Fredrikshamn, but has acted as a substitute within the shipping company's line network since the shipping company began traffic with the ship in 2018.
