Due to the design of our ferries, as well as the length and nature of the crossings, Stena Line have always operated a shared cabin policy for freight drivers. As we have always done, where a driver wishes to have their own cabin we will endeavour to meet their request when there are cabins available. In the current circumstances with the COVID-19/Coronavirus, where a driver now requests a single occupancy cabin and there is one available, we will waiver the additional charge to the driver.

If none is available and the driver still does not wish to share then they will be offered a recliner seat in our premium Hygge recliner lounge or other recliner lounge, free of any additional charge.

Drivers will still have access to the Truckers dining facilities and amenities as they currently enjoy.

As situation develops and the flag states, under which the ferries operate, give further information and guidance, we will of course review this.
