During the night of 23 April 2013, a fire broke out on the vehicle deck of the DFDS ferry Victoria Seaways. The ship was travelling from Kiel to KlaipÄ—da, about 22 nautical miles off Bornholm. The crew brought the fire under control in about an hour; all 301 passengers and 37 crew members were unharmed.

The Victoria Seaways continued its voyage to KlaipÄ—da. There, damage to vehicles and cargo was to be assessed. The route connects a German Baltic Sea port with Lithuania.
