Swedish American Line
(Swedish
:
Svenska Amerika Linien
, abbr. SAL) was a Swedish passenger shipping line. It was founded in December 1914 under the name
Rederiaktiebolaget Sverige-Nordamerika
and began
ocean liner
service from
Gothenburg to New York
in 1915.
In 1925 the company changed its name to Svenska Amerika Linien / Swedish American Line.
The Swedish American Line was amongst the first companies to build liners with provisions for off-season causing, as well as the world's first company to build a Diesel-engined transatlantic liner. Increased operational costs and stronger competition from aeroplanes forced the company to abandon passenger traffic in 1975.
