Stena Line nailing the competition

Stena Line has announced their latest facility to help customers avoid the stress of flying with its lengthy check-in, baggage charges and lost luggage horror stories, in an effort to provide an altogether different experience onboard the Stena HSS.

Passengers travelling on the luxury Stena HSS from Belfast to Stranraer can look forward to a spot of pampering during their travel, as the leading ferry company has installed a New York City Nails treatment zone onboard.

Treatments on offer include a ‘Manhattan Manicure’ and a ‘Treat and Tidy’ as well as neck and shoulder massages, to ensure passengers on the ferry to Belfast are truly relaxed when they reach their final destination.

Director of New York City Nails, Tiernan Lynch, is confident that this is just the start of what will be a perfect business marriage between two companies who are both forward-thinking in their trade initiatives and customer service driven in their desire to offer only the highest quality facilities to their clients.

“New York City Nails are delighted to be partnering with Stena Line in this new venture. We are confident that with the introduction of a New York City Nail bar on board the HSS Stena Voyager that we can provide a further affordable luxury service. We hope that this will be the beginning of a long and mutually beneficial relationship for both our companies.”

Stena Line’s head of onboard services, Stephen Bryden, welcomes the new facility which he believes will enable passengers to relax even more, “We are delighted to be able to offer customers the opportunity to relax with a manicure or a massage when they travel with Stena Line. We are continuously looking for new ways to ensure we provide an enjoyable experience and there's no better way than a bit of pampering as you sail across the Irish Sea.”
