As the sister “Fenicia” I have not many notices about her. She was on Ancona - Durres route. As a very strange thing this ship, owned by a company called “Adriatica” in 2001 season operated a Thirrenian connection between Leghorn and Catania. It is very sad to notice how the Tirrenia Group has bought new ships for Tirrenia company as the new “Bithia” and “Janas”, similar ships of “Knossos Palace” (plus a lot of other newbuildings like “Raffaele Rubattino”, “Vincenzo Florio” and the fast monohulls “Aries”, “Taurus” and so on) and left Adriatica to its destiny. Was sold to Egypt together with the sister on November 2004; after five years linking Egypt and Trieste, was sold to Arab Bridge Maritime, which deployed her on the Aqaba – Nuweiba (Saudi Arabia – Egypt) line as the “Bridge” and where she had as a fleet mate the “Pella”, best known in Greece as the former “Arkadi”.
