Puttgarden-Rødby Ferry

About us

puttgarden-rodby.net is an independent information and planning guide to the Puttgarden-Rødby ferry. The route is part of the Vogelfluglinie and runs between Puttgarden on Fehmarn and Rødby on Lolland. Scandlines operates the service. The crossing of the Fehmarn Belt takes around 45 minutes, with up to 45 departures in each direction.

With a 45-minute crossing and sailings every half hour, choosing a departure is rarely the main issue. The ticket matters more: whether you book in advance or buy at the port, how the fare covers your car and passengers, and how much time to allow for reaching Puttgarden if your fare applies to only one departure. We organise the timetable, fares, ships and port access around those decisions. We also cover the Fehmarn Belt tunnel being built alongside the route.

What this site is not

puttgarden-rodby.net is an independent guide. We are not the official Scandlines website. We are not a Denmark travel guide or a hotel portal: we deliberately leave out other ferry routes, general travel information about Denmark, hotels, flights and car hire. Our focus is the crossing itself. We do not sell the crossing ourselves either. Bookings are completed directly with our partner Scandlines, where the current fares, availability and conditions apply.
