P&O Ferries has resumed a full service from Northern Ireland to Scotland.
The Larne to Cairnryan route has been interrupted in recent weeks after the company replaced nearly 800 seafarers with cheaper agency staff.
The sackings sparked anger among unions and political representatives.
#POCairnryan / #POLarne: Our services have now resumed sailing. Please see the current schedule for departures from:
Larne: 08:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00, 23:59.
Cairnryan: 12:00, 16:00, 20:00, 23:59.
We look forward to welcoming you on board.
