For decades ferry services have been a primary transport branch enabling passengers to move in the Baltic Sea Region (BSR) and, at the same time, they have been undergoing a series of transformations in connection with the types of ferries in operation, functions they serve, as well as the structure of the traffic they handle. Loss of competitiveness of passenger ferry services in BSR while increasing cargo transport units volume, contributed to the change of the structure of the ferries fleet in the direction of the growth of freight lane capacity and loss the passenger capacity. The aim of the article is to identify and analyze the changes in the structure of the ferry fleet operating in BSR and assess their impact on development on ferry passenger segment.
