Scottish Viking was constructed by the Visentini Shipyard in Italy in 2009 for Watling Street Ltd. During construction she was chartered to Norfolkline for services between Rosyth and Zeebrugge, which they took over from Superfast Ferries when they withdrew from the service. When MS Superfast X was sold to Veolia Transport in 2007, Scottish Viking entered service. Shortly after in July 2009, Norfolkline was bought by DFDS and later rebranded as DFDS Seaways in 2010 when Norfolkline along with DFDS Lisco and DFDS Tor Line were merged into DFDS Seaways to make one brand.
