Stena Line is one of the biggest ferry operators in the world. They provide over 20 services connecting nine countries across the Irish Sea, North Sea, Baltic Sea and Scandinavia including accompanied (and unaccompanied) freight vehicles, with 38 ships and around 6,000 employees.

Passengers and freight drivers enjoy a wide range of quality services. Many Stena Line freight routes will include berths in cabins, free meals and special 'freight only' lounges. Other facilities on these ferry routes like Harwich-Hook of Holland include bars, restaurants lounges and gaming areas, while on routes like Rotterdam-Harwich the 12 drivers on board are well looked after.

Stena Line acquired the Celtic Link Rosslare - Cherbourg route in 2014.

Shipments for Trade Cars, Plant and Machinery or other unaccompanied mobile units are not guaranteed for the date of booking, even if space is confirmed. They will be shipped subject to space and the loading officer's discretion at the earliest opportunity. This may be up to a week after delivery to quay.
