In 2019, ferries carried 4.27 billion passengers, as many as those of airlines
A study commissioned by Interferry highlights the importance of the ro-ro and ro-pax ship industry
October 13, 2021
"We already knew - commented the administrator delegate of Interferrym, Mike Corrigan - that the Ferries are worth much more than its weight, which is equal to only 3-5% of the global shipping industry, but the scale of the results - he underlined - surprised even the employees expert jobs. Now perhaps we will have the political consideration that too often it focuses more on airlines, on rail and road transport operators. It's time - ha Observed Corrigan - that governments and, in general, the public appreciate the huge role that ferries play in the transport of passenger and freight and this study confirms the vital importance of our industry in this process."
