Our job ends at the platform. What fills the days in Berlin afterward does not belong to us.

Ferry destinations

What Ferries routes are there in Germany?

We sell 340 Ferries routes in Germany, serving 61 places, run by 16 operators. Every one of those routes has an operator that actually serves it, so the count is the network we can sell rather than every pair of places on a map.

How much do Ferries tickets in Germany cost?

The cheapest Ferries fare in Germany is €11.88 for one passenger, across the 340 routes we sell there. The median route runs 134 km in a straight line, which is the distance that fare should be read against before comparing it to anywhere else.

Can I travel out of Germany by Ferries?

228 of the Ferries routes we sell touching Germany cross a border and 112 stay inside it, reaching 8 other countries including Denmark, Sweden, Poland. Cross border routes are usually the ones where the fare and the journey time differ most between operators.

Which operators run Ferries services in Germany?

16 operators run Ferries services on routes we sell in Germany: AG Ems, Bodensee-Schiffsbetriebe, BSB, Finnlines, Int. Dollard Route. Each is a real carrier from the published operator catalog, and each has its own fares and conditions. The operator table on this page compares them on speed, flexibility and what is on board.

What is the longest Ferries route in Germany?

The longest Ferries route we sell touching Germany runs from Rostock to Stockholm, 685 km in a straight line. The median route in the country is 134 km, so this one is a considerable outlier and the fares on it behave differently from the rest.

Where these numbers come from

Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modeled number pass for a filed one.
