The Port of Gdynia Authority has awarded Stena Line the contract to continue operating at the Public Ferry Terminal, following a tender launched in June. The Swedish carrier competed with Unity Line Limited for Package I and secured the agreement, ensuring its continued presence on the Gdynia–Karlskrona route. Package II was cancelled despite one bidder submitting.

The consortium of Polish ferry operators (PŻM including Unity Line) has criticised the outcome and is considering legal action. The Port Authority rejects the allegations, stressing that the procedure was transparent and did not allow for appeals.
