Minoan Lines is one of the largest passenger ferry companies in Europe, and one of the dominant passenger ferry companies in Greece, sailing between Piraeus and Crete and, in the Adriatic Sea, between Patras and various Italian ports. The company was founded in May 1972 by Georgios Vardiampasis and Georgios Kegiadakis, according to former Minoan Lines president Konstantinos Klironomos.[1] Since 2008 Grimaldi's Compagnia di Navigazione SpA owns and controls 95.9 of the stock of Minoan Lines.
The company's logo is derived from The Lily Prince fresco at Knossos.
