Tokai Kisen Discontinues Use of Paper Streamers for Send-Off

Tokai Kisen will discontinue the use of paper streamers for send-off when passenger ships depart starting March 1.

Currently, colorful paper streamers are thrown between the pier and the ship when departing islands, a long-cherished spectacle unique to passenger ships. However, large amounts of these streamers are flowing into the ocean, prompting urgent improvement from the perspectives of marine pollution prevention and safe operation.

Until March 1, there is also a call to refrain from using paper streamers as much as possible.
