BLUE STAR DELOS takes over from BLUE STAR NAXOS
FerryBlue Star Ferries, part of the Attica Group, has assigned the larger 18,663 GT 145.9 metre BLUE STAR DELOS instead of the 10,438 GT 123.8 metre BLUE STAR NAXOS to their route from Piraeus to the Cyclades.
Some of the small ports on the itinerary have never received such a large vessel before so a number of test calls were made before the BLUE STAR DELOS was switched to the route. The vessel sails from Piraeus to Naxos, Donoussa, Amorgos and Astypalaia. The BLUE STAR NAXOS is back on the Paros, Naxos and Santorini line.
The Attica Group has also extended the summer schedule of its routes to Lesvos and Chios by one month as a response to the closure of Chios airport, where runway upgrades will take four months. The route is served by the BLUE STAR MYKONOS, DIAGORAS and the NISSOS SAMOS.
