DFDS Seaways
Det Forenede Dampskibsselskab - Dover Services From 2010


 All images link to larger copies which will open in a new window/tab


  
This page is one of a series devoted to postcards and photographs of Danish ferry company DFDS. This page shows images of the ex-Norfolk Line service from Dover to Dunkerque bought from Maersk in 2010. Maersk in turn acquired a substantial interest in DFDS.

The takeover was completed in mid-June 2010, including the acquisition of  Maersk Delft, Maersk Dover and Maersk Dunkerque on the Dover-Dunkerque route. The ships received DFDS funnel colours in early July and were later renamed Delft Seaways, Dover Seaways and Dunkerque Seaways. Full DFDS livery with a dark blue hull was applied in January/February 2011.
