Minoan<.> Flying Dolphins has further expanded its fleet -now totalling 63- with the addition of 10 car passenger ferries for its Cycladic, Sporadic and Argosaronic routes.

For the Cyclades, it has acquired the F/B Poseidon Express II which runs the Piraeus-Paros-Naxos-Ios-Santorini route (with connections to Folegandros and Anafi); the F/B Pegasus on the Piraeus-Kythnos-Serifos-Sifnos-Milos route (with connections to Sikinos, Kimolos and Folegandros); and the F/B Milos Express on the Piraeus-Kythnos-Serifos-Sifnos-Milos route (with connections to Sikinos, Kimolos and Folegandros).

Through these three acquisitions, Minoan is able to transport another 700,000 passengers and 150,000 vehicles to the Cyclades each year.

For the Sporades, Minoan has purchased the F/B Papadiamantis, which runs the Volos-Skiathos-Glossa-Skopelos-Alonissos route, boosting its capacity to transport passengers within this area by 150,000 and that of vehicles by 16,000.
