There is no interest in reviving a Greece-Cyprus ferry service at the present time, despite some initial statements on behalf of several companies when the idea was floated in February of 2020, according to a statement issued on Friday by the Cypriot Shipping Ministry.
No offers whatsoever were received by the Cypriot government after they opened the bidding process in December, according to the statement released late today.
January 29 was the date of the official closing of the bidding process for the potential ferry service.
Last year, the Greek authorities gave the green light for the reintroduction of a ferry connection between mainland Greece and Cyprus, a line that had not been in operation since 2000.
