Additional Reservation System for Superfast and Blue Star Ferries

Along with their own booking systems for domestic and international ferry routes, Superfast Ferries and Blue Star Ferries now have their routes on the FORTHcrs reservation system. An agreement between Attica Enterprises, which controls both above mentioned ferry lines, and the Forthnet group was signed last month.

Presently, travel agents that cooperate with the FORTHcrs and Superfast systems are able to book and issue coastal shipping tickets for all the ferry company’s routes.

Forthnet says its common OpenSeasTM reservations system allows coastal shipping companies the power to sell tickets and accept bookings in the simplest way through a wide network of cooperating travel agents both in Greece and abroad.

The company adds that this year its system will move into the lodging sector for bookings as well and implement a system for Greek hotel and rented-room bookings.

Separately, Minoan Lines, which holds 21.13% of the shares in Forthnet, announced that it would sell all of its holdings in that company on the open market from mid April until mid July of this year.
