About us

puttgarden-rodby.net is an independent information and planning site for the Puttgarden-Rødby ferry. The ferry runs on the Vogelfluglinie between Puttgarden on Fehmarn and Rødby on Lolland, and the connection is operated by the ferry company Scandlines. The crossing of the Fehmarn Belt takes around 45 minutes, with up to 45 departures each way.

With a 45-minute crossing and a ferry every half hour, choosing a departure hardly matters; what matters is the ticket. Do you book in advance or buy in the lane at the port, what does the car cost with everyone in it, and how tightly can you plan your arrival in Puttgarden if your fare is only valid for one departure? That is how we organise the timetable, fares, ships and routes to the ports. On top of that comes the topic that hangs over this route: the Fehmarn Belt tunnel being built alongside it.

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 information about Denmark, hotel bookings, flights and car hire. The focus stays on the crossing itself. Nor do we sell the crossing ourselves. Bookings are made via Scandlines, where current prices, availability and conditions apply.
