Scandlines GmbH is one of Europe's largest ferry companies, established in 1998 by a merger of the largest national ferry companies in Denmark and Germany.
Our core area is the triangle between Denmark, Germany and Sweden, where we have the densest route network of any ferry company.
In 2007 Scandlines started operating to Hanko and currently offers four departures per week using the sister ships 'Aurora' and 'Merchant', which have a load capacity of 2,170 lane metres and cabin space for up to 12 drivers. Both vessels have been awarded the highest Finnish ice class. Scandlines' prime mission is to offer both private individuals and transport companies a competitive, efficient and enjoyable transportation of passengers and goods.

Furthermore Scandlines' activities include catering service, retail sales of goods in restaurants and shops on board and in shore-based shops.
The Scandlines logo symbolises the most important Scandlines markets. The different colours of the triangle denote the countries that link together the Scandlines route network in the southern Baltic. The yellow stands for Germany, red for Denmark and blue for Sweden.
Scandlines operates on nine routes between 13 ports in the Baltic Sea. In 2010, the company transported more than 12 million passengers as well as 2.8 million cars and 800.000 trucks and trailers.
