Isle of Man Steam Packet Company Overview
The Isle of Man Steam Packet provides freight, passenger and vehicle ferries between the Douglas ferry port on the Isle of Man and four ports in the UK and Ireland. The aim is to provide consistent services with convenient and fast crossing times and to offer a wide range of promotional fares to the travelling public.
The Isle of Man Steam Packet Company is the oldest continually operating shipping company in the world. The Isle of Man Steam Packet began ferry operations in 1830. At that time the ferry operator was called Mona's Isle Company after the company's first ferry of the same name.
In both World War I and World War II the Isle of Man Steam Package ferries and crew were actively involved, acquitting themselves with honour in both instances. The ferry operator transports about 600,000 passengers every year 170,000 cars & motorcycles.
