The ship was originally marketed as a train replacement.

One of the Mahart-Passnave cruise ships full of passengers was stuck in Zebegény, and several photos and videos of this were posted on the Love Zebegény Facebook group.

The ship acts as a substitute train between Nagymaros and Zebegény. Train traffic on the line came to a halt in June because rain at that time flooded the train track with mud and stones at the Dömös crossing for a kilometer. The section was later opened at the bend of the Danube, but the Mahart decided to keep the replacement ship.

Every year Danube cruises bring a few tens of millions of guilders in profit to a business. According to the professionals, the problem is not that there are too many boats, but that the market has grown too fast and many are trying to save on wages.
