Operated by Stena Line on the Belfast Cairnryan route
The Superfast VII along with her sister ship Superfast VIII is among the largest and most luxurious ships in the Stena Line fleet and features a level of quality, comfort and service never before seen on the Irish Sea. The Superfast VII provides the best ferry experience on the Irish Sea with numerous facilities including a Nordic Spa, the ‘POD Lounge’, a chill out Living Room, ‘Taste’ dining, free Wi-Fi, free movies, Curious George for the kids and the exclusive Stena Plus Lounge.
Due to the short crossing, cabin accommodation is not available on the Superfast VII however reserved seating is available in the Stena Plus Lounge. Stena Plus offers a range of comfortable leather seating including sofas and sofa chairs on two levels, so you can find the area which is just right for you.
In addition to seating, passengers who travel in the luxurious Stena Plus lounge can enjoy waiter service and choose from a premium menu which includes a range of speciality seafood dishes and old favourites. So you can simply relax in your seats and order meals at your leisure.

In the Superfast VII shop you’ll find a range of gifts, jewellery and fragrances with prices on average 40% cheaper than the UK high street.
Chill out in the onboard ‘Living Room’ – your lounge at sea! Enjoy complimentary magazines and all the latest news on 70” plasma TV screens.

"Pros and Cons"
The most hassle free way to travel! We were impressed from start to finish. Booking confirmation had links to all information you may need-directions to the port terminal was grately appreciated! There was no confusion-everything was very professionally organised! The one dislike we had was with the prices onboard!! The value for food is not the best! Nearly £10 for a very small platleful plus an added extra for some chips!

"Very pleasant trip"
Very pleasant trip on the Stena line ferry. Sea was a bit rough on the return journey but captain had put stabilizers down to ensure our comfort. Sailing was punctual and safe. Would recommend this company!

"Comfortable travelling"
We have just returned from a family holiday in Scotland. We found the ferry, as on previous occasions, to be such a relaxing mode of travel. We were fortunate to have extremely calm seas on all our trips. We found the premier lounge to be so comfortable and we availed of the snacks available. I totally recommend Directferries.

"the impossibility of getting in touch with direct ferries to change a scheduled flexi ticket booking"
My short sea trip was very pleasant and my past experience with direct ferries through which the ferry was booked has been good but this summer it proved impossible to contact their booking office by phone or e mail in order to change my return ticked on what was a flexible ticket. Stenna the ferry company did eventually allow my change when i explained that it was impossible to get through to direct ferries beyond a computerized message. I will in future book direct with the ferry company as they offer a far better service to customers.

perfect trip apart from missing the 1st ferry by 15 minutes the staff changed my ticket with no fuss and the newly refurbished facility at the port was great

"Kids cruise"
Overall our jorney was enjoyable, however you should have informed the people travelling that there was a childrens cruise onboard!! We were travelling with children but they couldnt get involved because they didn't have a wristband, we would have been happy when boarding to pay a little extra to let them join in! On the other hand if i did not have kids with me i would not be happy that the bar was overrun by them i i couldnt have a drink and relax!!
