Tallink has carried fewer passengers and vehicles in March but saw the number of cargo units rise.
The Estonian ferry owner transported 724,243 passengers last month, a decrease of 5.2% year-on-year.
Passenger vehicles slipped 4.1% to 79,642 units while cargo units increased by 17.5% to 31,974.
Tallink’s update came shortly after the company posted a new record for passenger volumes in 2016, when it carried 9.5m people.
For the first quarter of the year, Tallink transported nearly 2m passengers, a marginal decrease of 0.7% compared to the previous year.
But the number of cargo units went up 8.4% to 83,797.
Tallink controls a fleet of nearly 20 ships and, earlier this year, it started operating its new LNG fast ferry on the Tallinn-Helsinki route.
