Helsingborg (S) -Helsingör (DK) 20 minutes
HH-ferries Cars & Trucks carrier The Hamlet -it's called so because The Shakespeare play Hamlet took place in the Kronborg Castle, Helsingör, DK (info for those of you who dropped out of college)
Sundbuss - passengers only
Rödbyhavn (DK) -Puttgarden (D) 45 minutes
Scandlines Cars & Trucks carrier
Who wants to drive on a 18km long bridge in 2018?
The only advantage would be a cheaper price to reach Puttgarden & Bordershop :cheers: otherwise I prefer the ferry, at least for the car. A train ride a cross the bridge would be a great experience though.
The "road" to Continental Europe for many Scandinavians.
Virtu Ferries invests €75m in cutting-edge technology high-speed wave-piercer catamaran
Friday, 7 October 2016
Virtu Ferries has signed a newbuild contract with Incat Tasmania Pty. Ltd. to build a High Speed Wavepiercer Passenger/Vehicle Catamaran for their Malta – Sicily route. Delivery is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2018, the company said in a statement today.
At 1,000 tons deadweight, the vessel will be the largest RoPax Catamaran ever built for operation in the Mediterranean, and the second largest in the world. The vessel will have a capacity of 900 passengers in four luxury lounges on two passenger decks and additional outside seating. The full span of the garage deck is designed to carry 23 heavy commercial trailers, equivalent to 490 truck lane meters or 167 cars. At a cruising speed of 38 knots, the Malta to Sicily crossing will, as with the Jean De La Valette, take approximately 90 minutes. Incat Tasmania are the world leaders in building large environmentally friendly high speed ferries with an emphasis on eco operations and fuel efficiency. Incat vessels, both commercial and military, are to be found in all four corners of the world. http://www.independent.com.mt/artic...-high-speed-wave-piercer-catamaran-6736164835
