MS Finlandia is a cruiseferry owned and operated by the Finnish ferry operator Eckerö Line. The ship operates between Tallinn and Helsinki.
History
Finlandia was renovated at a drydock in Gdańsk, Poland in early 2019.
Sister ships
The Finlandia is the second of three identical ships built by DSME and Fincantieri.[2] The other two ships are Moby Wonder and Moby Aki. Tallink’s Superstar is also considered a sister ship, but the two ships are not identical.
The Finlandia will soon undergo another renovation.[3]
This includes a new battery, new seating area in Easter 2026 (Called Horizon Seats), Buffet Eckerö serving lines, Bistro and Cafeteria Satama will also get approx. 150 new seats.
Along with this renovation M/S Finlandia will be the first partially electrified ship on the Baltic Sea, since Eckerö is taking more steps to become a fully electric and sustainable shipping company. [3]
