Passenger
Larne - Cairnryan
The Port of Larne has provided a passenger service to Cairnryan for over 30 years since the Ionic Ferry made the inaugural sailing on 10th July 1973. From humble beginnings of just one ship and two round trips per day, the service has developed into the fastest and most frequent route on the Irish Sea, operating up to three ships per day with 18 crossings. P&O Irish Sea's two conventional ferries, European Highlander and European Causeway have established themselves as extremely reliable ships and between them offer 14 sailings per day, with crossing times of just 105 minutes. From April to September P&O Irish Sea operate their highly popular fast ferry. P&O Express offers an exclusive passenger service from Larne to Cairnryan in just one hour.
