Seajets

In 2004, Panagiotis ("Takis") Iliopoulos (1932–2022) and his son Marios founded Seajets, originally named Dolphin Sea Lines.^[2]

Today, it operates a fleet of 14 high speed vessels,^[3] and 3 conventional Ro-Ro ferries which services routes from the ports of Piraeus and Rafina to several Cycladic islands. It also sails on routes between Crete (Heraklion - Rethymno) and Central Cyclades (i.e., Santorini, Ios, Naxos, Paros and Mykonos) as well as Northern Greece (Thessaloniki, Sporades), Cyclades and Crete. In total, Seajets sails to 17 islands and offers 140 connections among them.^[4] Most of these routes are seasonal, operating between April and October every year.

In 2018 Seajets received the ”Passenger Line of the Year” award in the 15th “Lloyd's List Greek Shipping Awards 2018”^[5] and in 2019 Seajets HSC WorldChampion Jet was awarded “ship of the year” during the Lloyd's List Greek Shipping Awards 2019 ceremony.^[6]

In 2020 the company bought seven cruise ships, two of which were soon resold for demolition.

In November 2025, Seajets cruise ship Goddess of the Night was sold for €140 million to Chinese cruise line opetator, Tianjin Orient International Cruises.^[7][8]

Seajets owns 30 high-speed passenger ships, 6 ferries and 4 cruise ships connecting 50 Aegean islands and Crete.^[9]

As of February 2026^[update], the Seajets fleet consists of the following vessels:^[3]
