Hansa Destinations will not perform the service between Nynäshamn and Rostock during 2023

By | 2022 Newsletter week 50 | No Comments
  • Hansa Destinations (Gotlandsbolaget) has been running the service between Nynäshamn-Visby-Rostock since August 2021. Now, the company informs that they will not be continuing the traffic during 2023.
  • The background to the decision is foremost, the high cost of fuel.
  • The goal has been to offer freight customers, but also passengers, an effective and sustainable solution for transport and travel between the continent and the greater Stockholm area. The move from road to sea represents a major environmental benefit as well as a needed decrease of trucks on roads.
  • “We do not have a sound business case. The low numbers of cargo volumes have also meant that the environmental benefits that have been our goal, have not been achieved”, says Håkan Johansson, CEO at Gotlandsbolaget.
  • The traffic will end after the arrival of ELIANA MARINO will be in Rostock on December 18, 2022, and of DROTTEN in Nynäshamn on January 4 2023. Customers and partners are being contacted.

Hansa Destinations marks one-year anniversary

Exactly one year ago (30 August 2021), Gotlandsbolaget’s Hansa Destinations launched its new 18-hour ferry service between Nynäshamn and Rostock.

In May 2022, the service was expanded with daily departures. Interest among passengers has so far exceeded expectations, although the switch of freight traffic from road to sea has been slower than Gotlandsbolaget had hoped.
