Built in 2023, it is 23 years newer than the median ro-pax ship on this register, which was built in 2000 (483 vessels with a known build year). It is one of 82 ro-pax ships here under the Cyprus flag, 16.6% of the 493 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 192 other vessels here, 7 of them ro-pax ships. P&O Ferries is linked to 10 vessels on this register. The returns for 2024–2025 all give LIMASSOL as port of registry.

Per nautical mile it emitted 527.6 kg CO₂, 13% above the type median of 467.6 kg. It logged 5,015 hours at sea against a median of 4,243 hours for its type that year. 8.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for ro-pax ships was 6.7%. Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
