I see from the marine traffic map that Panagia Skiadeni is heading out towards Athens is it just for inspection and certification or should we be worried?

Annual inspection combined with sea trials for the repairs/replacement to the engine control system which was damaged last autumn is my best guess.
The Dodekanisos Pride went last week. It can take up to two weeks for the ships to go through dry docking, inspection and recertification, and there are a limited number of dry docks, so shipowners need to book their vessels in well in advance. As Greek Easter is earlier this year, and they need all their ships by then, the whole process starts earlier. Expect the Pride to take over from the Express when she returns so the Express can receive attention in turn.
