March 2017 closes with a slight decrease in the number of ferries departed from the Port of Civitavecchia (-8.72% compared to last year).

A small phisiological fall due in part to the drop in the number of ships docked (95 in 2017 vs. 108 in 2016), but especially to the fact that Easter fell on March in 2016 and this year it falls on the 16th of April. That makes us hope for a great increase in April!

Let's now see the numbers in detail: we remind you that, as always, this information is partial since it is based exclusively on the number of reservations and, therefore, it doesn't include the many tourists who buy last minute tickets the same day of departure.
