Irish Ferries

Irish Ferries is an Irish ferry and transport company that operates passenger and freight services on routes between Ireland, Britain and Continental Europe, including Dublin Port–Holyhead; Rosslare Europort to Pembroke, Dublin Port-Cherbourg and more recently Dover in the UK to Calais in France. The company is a division of the Irish Continental Group (ICG) which trades on the Irish Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange. ICG also owns the Eucon container line which operates vessels on routes operating between Ireland and the continent. Irish Ferries' flagship, Ulysses, is currently the largest ROPAX ferry operating on the Irish Sea and when launched in 2001 was the world's largest car ferry in terms of car-carrying capacity. Other ships in the fleet include W.B. Yeats, Isle of Inishmore, Isle of Innisfree, Isle of Inisheer, James Joyce and the fast ferry Dublin Swift (preceded by HSC Jonathan Swift, which operated until 2018). The company also charters ro-pax vessel Oscar Wilde (formerly named Spirit of Britain), with a purchase option on the vessel.
