Its 68,180 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.3 times the median of 30,062 t among the 417 ro-pax ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 830.5 kg CO₂, 1.8 times the type median of 467.6 kg. It logged 3,581 hours at sea against a median of 4,243 hours for its type that year. 1.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for ro-pax ships was 6.7%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (111,826 t) and the lowest 2025 (68,180 t). Of the 8 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 8 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 35.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 32.3% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 9.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
