Brødrene Aa delivers the first AERO to serve the Saronic islands

Aero 1 Highspeed is the very first vessel of Brødrene Aas newly introduced AERO concept, featuring aerodynamic and energy efficient design, accompanied with lightweight carbon fiber trademark construction.

The extremely light construction of carbon fiber contributes to a reduction of fuel consumption and air emissions.

Tor Øyvin Aa, CEO of Brødrene Aa, said:

"We are very pleased and proud that our vessels will soon be sailing in the demanding Greek Seas trusted by one of the largest European ferry operators."

The new, state-of-the-art Aeros boast an ultra-modern design and innovative features that will significantly upgrade the travel experience for the over 3 million passengers travelling annually on the Saronic routes.

Upon delivery of the new AERO 1 Highspeed, Mr. Spiros Paschalis, CEO of Attica said: 

“In these challenging times, Attica Group remains focused on providing first class sea transport services to our passengers, with new, innovative and more environmental friendly vessels, to the benefit of our islands and their people and to the Greek tourism and economy”.

Aero 1 Highspeed is with its 36 length meters and 9.7 width meters, the first of three Aero catamarans ordered by Attica. With a full load, it will be able to maintain a maximum speed of 32 knots.

The interior is designed with a focus on comfort, even in rough seas. The spacious passenger accommodation area has large windows, providing excellent view and ample natural light. It also has special provisions for the facilitation of passengers with reduced mobility and dedicated area for bicycle transportation.
