Port of Tallinn: 59,605 TEUs handled in Q1 2019 (+15.4% yoy)

"According to international maritime regulations, all passenger ships must undergo regular maintenance and dock. Due to the maintenance, Tallink, Viking Line and Eckerö Line vessels were out of service for a while and therefore the volumes of passengers as well as ro-ro cargo passing through the harbours declined in the first months of the year," Valdo Kalm, Chairman of the Management Board, the Port of Tallinn, explained.
