Tallink re-opens limited maritime traffic between Tallinn and Stockholm at the end of August

Tallink Grupp has announced that it will reopen the traffic between Tallinn and Stockholm in a limited capacity from 26 August 2020 and initially mainly for cargo transportation. Traffic between the two capital cities was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic and state of emergency declared in Estonia in March this year.

From 26 August, the company's vessel BALTIC QUEEN will operate one return trip on the Tallinn-Stockholm route every week, departing from Stockholm on Tuesday evenings and from Tallinn on Wednesday evenings.

In addition to the Tallinn-Stockholm return trips, BALTIC QUEEN will also operate on the Turku-Tallinn route on weekends and will provide cargo transportation between Turku and Stockholm on Mondays and Thursdays every week.

The current weekly route schedule for BALTIC QUEEN will apply until further notice of any changes to it from the company.

There are still maximum passenger number limits in place on Tallink Grupp's vessels with only 75% of the total passenger capacity allowed on any departure. Strict hygiene requirements are in place on all the vessels and all passengers must confirm at check-in that they are healthy and have no virus symptoms. Passengers with virus symptoms or who are ill will not be allowed to board.
