Vessel Description

P&O KALYPSO is a modern Ro-Pax (Roll-on/Roll-off Passenger) ferry operating under the Cypriot flag for P&O Ferries, one of the United Kingdom's primary short-sea ferry operators. Delivered in 2024, the vessel is among the newest additions to the P&O Ferries fleet and is deployed on the high-frequency Dover–Calais corridor, one of the busiest maritime crossings in the world.

The vessel is named in keeping with P&O Ferries' tradition of Greek mythological naming conventions for its fleet. As a Ro-Pax vessel, P&O KALYPSO is designed to carry a combination of passengers, private vehicles, and freight trailers, supporting both tourist traffic and commercial supply chain logistics across the English Channel.

The vessel was built at Guangzhou Shipyard International (GSI) in China, reflecting the broader industry trend of sourcing newbuild tonnage from major Asian shipbuilding nations. P&O Ferries is owned by DP World, the global port operator and logistics company headquartered in Dubai, UAE.
