organisation profile

TT-Line, a privately-owned group of shipping lines, has been running a direct ferry service between Germany and southern Sweden since 1962. The Hamburg-based shipping company, the market leader in passenger and cargo traffic, has implemented a forward-looking fleet policy and has staked its success on delivering quality and innovative technologies which benefit both its customers and the environment. With an average age of seven years, the TT-Line vessels represent the most modern fleet servicing the Sweden route. Our customers have a choice of up to 20 departures a day between Germany and Sweden. We move almost a million passengers and 300,000 cargo units annually.

A total of six own vessels service the routes from Travemünde and Rostock to Trelleborg and Helsingborg. On the traditional ferry route between Travemünde – Trelleborg, the company today operates four ecologically sound Green Ships: the modern Jumbo-Liners NILS HOLGERSSON and PETER PAN as well as the combi-carriers ROBIN HOOD and NILS DACKE. The ferry route between Rostock and Trelleborg, in operation since 1992, is serviced by the Ro Ro ferries TOM SAWYER and HUCKLEBERRY FINN. Since 2003, a special cargo ferry service using the Green Ships ROBIN HOOD and NILS DACKE has been in operation between Travemünde and Helsingborg.

The commissioning of the new Green Ship NILS HOLGERSSON and PETER PAN represents a further step in the TT-Line Group’s evolution to being an ecology-minded shipping operation, by deploying environmentally sound propulsion systems. TT-Line already operates one of the most ecologically sound fleets in Europe today. The Hamburg-based shipping company has received many awards for its consistent environmental commitment and its fleet policy, which is geared towards great customer benefits (Transport Company of the Year 2000, Ship Pax 2001, Lucia Prize 2002 for the best contribution to promoting Sweden in Germany and Innovation Prize 2003 from the Swedish Transport Industry Association). In the summer of 2004, the PETER PAN was the only Baltic Sea ferry to receive the mark ‘very good’ in the annual ADAC safety test for European ferries.
