MS Finlandia is a cruiseferry owned and operated by the Finnish ferry operator Eckerö Line. The ship operates between Tallinn and Helsinki.

History

[edit]

Finlandia was renovated at a drydock in Gdansk, Poland in early 2019.

Sister ships

[edit]

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.
