The Port of Mariehamn has reopened as a passenger harbour. This means we can now offer our passengers a day of fresh sea air in the archipelago from Turku. Places are limited given the current situation, so travel is on a first come, first served basis. Going forward, passengers should observe the government restrictions in effect, and we recommend that all passengers study the instructions in effect prior to their trip.<\/p>\n<p>Five of Viking Line\u2019s seven vessels will operate between Finland and Sweden, the \u00c5land Islands and Estonia. People can still continue to travel as usual between the Finnish mainland and \u00c5land.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe look forward to resuming our normal service with the hope that this can take place in time for the summer peak season. We have taken great effort to make travel safe and secure for our passengers. According to a number of surveys, there will be great interest in holidaying locally. We can be of service here by providing trips to our destinations and above all through our unique archipelagos, which are now at their most beautiful,\u201d says Jan Hanses, President and CEO of Viking Line.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Viking Line\u2019s service starting June 1:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><u>Turku \u2013 \u00c5land \u2013 Stockholm<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>M\/S Viking Grace and M\/S Amorella<\/strong> will operate according to the following timetable:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sales.vikingline.com\/find-cruise-trip\/timetables-connections\/timetables\/turku-stockholm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.sales.vikingline.com\/find-cruise-trip\/timetables-connections\/timetables\/turku-stockholm\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><u>Mariehamn \u2013 Kapellsk\u00e4r June 1, 2020 \u2013 June 21, 2020:<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>M\/S Rosella<\/strong> will operate according to the following timetable:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sales.vikingline.com\/find-cruise-trip\/timetables-connections\/timetables\/mariehamn-kapellskar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.sales.vikingline.com\/find-cruise-trip\/timetables-connections\/timetables\/mariehamn-kapellskar\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><u>Helsinki \u2013 Tallinn June 1, 2020 \u2013 June 18, 2020<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>M\/S Gabriella and Viking XPRS <\/strong>will operate between Helsinki and Tallinn according to the following timetables:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sales.vikingline.com\/find-cruise-trip\/timetables-connections\/timetables\/helsinki-tallinn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.sales.vikingline.com\/find-cruise-trip\/timetables-connections\/timetables\/helsinki-tallinn\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><u><strong>Suspended service:<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Service between Helsinki and Stockholm will be suspended until at least June 30, 2020<\/li>\n<li>Cruise traffic from Stockholm to Mariehamn with M\/S Viking Cinderella will be suspended until at least June 30, 2020<\/li>\n<li>Bus departures may diverge from normal operations during this time<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We will contact those passengers affected by the timetable changes.
