Sea Lines offer a quick, safe and reliable connection between Turkey and Ukraine, facilitating trade between Turkey and Europe.
Sea Lines gives both trucking companies and their drivers the extra comfort of letting the drivers travel with the truck, ensuring the truck will always be driven by its own dedicated driver.
To relieve truck drivers Sea Lines offers them a "home away from home". All services on board are included in the ticket price - ranging from accommodation in clean and well-equipped cabins to free meals, tea/coffee-bar and access to DVD-players and TV's.
Sea Lines employes a well-maintained RO-PAX vessel, M/S Sea Partner, capable of carrying 130 16,5m trucks + trailers together with their drivers. Welcome onboard!
You know exactly when truck will arrive, customs cleared, to Illyichevsk or to Haydarpasa. This means less border controls, less waiting, less uncertainty which all together ensure customer satisfaction and better truck utilization grade.
The driver rests safely in his cabin while cargo is fully secure on the cargo deck - always supervised by the vessel's professional staff.
Your cargo will have passed the Ukrainian border control within 30 hours after departure. As driver can rest a full 24 hours while on board this means he is free to drive directly when leaving the vessel.
Compared to the land route, you will save over 2 200 kilometres, 40 hours of driving, 4 border crossings and numerous hours of waiting.
A ROPAX vessel, as M/S Sea Partner, will always have priority over other vessels, such as for example RORO-vessels or container vessels, in the Bosphorus.
With less border controls and with a fixed schedule, it will be easier to give customers a more exact time of arrival. This decreases their storage needs, capital costs and possible loss of production and gives you a competitive advantage over other means of transportation.
Passengers get the possibility to rest on board a home away from home. Everything is done to make you feel as comfortable as possible when on board, with both accommodation and all meals conveniently included in the ticket.
Sea Lines helpful staff will support you throughout your journey - in Turkish, English or Russian. You will never be alone - no matter if onboard or on the road.
