 With her 31-knot top speed the "Finnjet" was able to cross the Baltic in a mere 22 hours, and her accommodations were superior to those of any ferry of the day.Unfortunately she had also been designed before the oil crisis, meaning her operational costs were much higher than originally planned.After delivery of the "Finnjet", the "Finlandia" was rebuilt into the cruise ship MS "Finnstar", becoming Finnlines' first (and to date last) genuine cruise ship.
