Focusing on the cruise ferry marketing strategy for the travel, recreation and business sectors of the market, the onboard programme of SuperFerry 92 will ensure that delegates and exhibiting companies have every opportunity to discuss the development of this type of ship. SuperFerry 92 will be a unique occasion to experience state-of-the-art cruise ferry operations and, during the voyage, many of the exhibiting companies will have the chance to demonstrate at first hand their systems which are installed on the ship. But, the cruise ferry concept is more than just luxury ferry operation - it is new thinking on ways to increase revenue and profit from passenger shipping. The progress and innovation represented by the "Silja Serenade" and her sister, "Silja Symphony", are not only being applied to the Baltic, where 16 million passengers are carried annually, but also on cross-Channel operations, the North Sea, Mediterranean and in North America and the Far East, where there is considerable potential for superferries and their derivatives.
