Boasting of rapid transformations, these vessels can enhance the voyage experience of the passengers and ensure the safe transportation of cargos. In this blog, we discuss the reasons behind the continued success and efficiency in Ropax operations. Expanded capacity –By extending and modernising their vessels, the shipping lines are on the road to simplifying the transportation process of both freight and passengers. For instance, the Stena Line is expanding the capacity and doubling the cabin numbers to accommodate more passengers and support them with reliable services. In this regard, another striking example is set by KNUD E. HANSEN that has enhanced the capacity of cargo up to 400 cars and passengers up to 1500.
