CRACOVIA to be replaced by a larger vessel on Algerian service
FerryAfter two years of providing a reliable and successful service for Nouris El Bahr, the chartered CRACOVIA will probably be replaced by a larger vessel after the new BURSZTYN UNITY enters service on the Swinoujscie – Ystad route for POLSCA Baltic Ferries.
The CRACOVIA has linked Marseille and Alicante with Algiers, Bejaia and Oran in Algeria. 594 sailings have been made in two years, transporting 242,990 passengers and 146,501 vehicles.
Nouris Elbahr is Algeria’s only privately owned ferry company. It is possible that the 550 passenger and 123 cabin 25,028 GT CRACOVIA could be replaced by the 29,289 GT MAZOVIA, which has a higher capacity with 2,212 lane metre and 1,000 passengers in 162 cabins.
