Stena Line to stop its Rosslare-Cherbourg service
Stena Line announced that from 30 September 2025, the ferry operator intends to withdraw its existing three-day Rosslare – Cherbourg service. This development follows an extensive review with the intention of strengthening the company’s investment in the Irish Sea, whilst delivering the most efficient use of the company’s resources.
Johan Edelman, Trade Director said, “Our priority is, as always, the care of our people and customers. We’ve already met with our colleagues. Over this period of consultation we will be working with any individual affected to consider all options, including redeployment opportunities. As we work through this change we will continue to support our colleagues at every stage.
Our customer service team will be helping customers who have booked travel after September to keep any inconvenience to a minimum.
Stena Line will continue to strengthen its Irish Sea network. It has recently announced investments of almost £40 million in our Liverpool and Belfast terminals. We are also upgrading the Fishguard port infrastructure. We will also be increasing capacity across the Irish Sea. Two new freight vessels are planned for the Belfast – Heysham route. An additional freight vessel will serve the Dublin – Liverpool route.
I would like to take this opportunity to personally thank our employees, customers and delivery partners over the past 11 years. Our Rosslare – Cherbourg service is one that we will always be proud of. We will continue to deliver the same high-quality service over the coming months.”
