DFDS ENTERS BALTIC SEA SPACE CHARTER AGREEMENT
| INVESTOR NEWS no. 28 - 26 August 2025 |
- Space charter agreement with TT Line covering freight and passengers
- Agreement covers DFDS route Klaipeda-Karlshamn
- DFDS also granted access to capacity on TT Line routes Klaipeda-Trelleborg and Klaipeda-Travemünde
- Agreement expected to be effective from 1 October 2025
To enhance the efficiency and scope of our Baltic Sea ferry network, DFDS has today entered into a mutual space charter agreement with TT Line on the combined freight and passenger (RoPax) route Karlshamn-Klaipeda that both parties operate today.
The agreement grants in addition DFDS access to capacity on two TT Line routes: Klaipeda-Trelleborg and Klaipeda-Travemünde.
The agreement is planned to become effective for freight on 1 October 2025 on all three routes. For passengers, the agreement will be effective on Karlshamn-Klaipeda on 1 October 2025 and on 1 November 2025 on the other two routes.
The space charter agreement enables customers to board the next available sailing on Karlshamn-Klaipeda regardless of the operator. All commercial activities and relationships with customers remain entirely under the control of each operator.
The new space charter agreement increases frequency for customers on Karlshamn-Klaipeda and expands DFDS’ network. The agreement will also help reduce emissions as it enables each operator to reduce the number of sailings on Karlshamn-Klaipeda while the total availability of sailings for customers increases.
DFDS operates two combined freight and passenger ferries (RoPax) on Karlshamn-Klaipeda and four other ferries on Baltic Sea routes connecting Germany and Sweden, Sweden and Estonia, and Denmark and Lithuania.
