Plan your TT-Line journey with EUFerry by reviewing routes and passenger information first, then compare current sailings and ticket choices for your dates.
TT-Line has connected continental Europe and Sweden since 1962 and today operates a broad passenger and freight network across the southern Baltic. Its main passenger gateways include Travemünde and Rostock in Germany, Świnoujście in Poland, Klaipėda in Lithuania and the Swedish ports of Trelleborg and Karlshamn.
Trelleborg remains the central hub. Several Germany–Sweden sailings operate each day, while Poland and Lithuania services create useful alternatives for travellers heading east or south across Europe. Some longer journeys use an easy transfer between TT-Line ferries in Trelleborg.
The routes are designed for self-drive travel as much as foot passengers. Cars, motorcycles, campervans and caravans can be booked, and the longer sailings offer private cabins, Pullman seating, restaurants, bars, shops, Wi-Fi and family facilities.
EUFerry travel note: TT-Line's route network includes direct, through and connection products. Always read the complete itinerary if travelling beyond Trelleborg.
The network is wider than three routes, so these cards show the classic Germany–Sweden corridor, the fastest Germany–Sweden route and TT-Line's long Baltic connection towards Lithuania.
Travemünde–Trelleborg is TT-Line's historic core route, with regular day and night departures and a current crossing time of roughly seven to nine hours.
Rostock–Trelleborg is one of TT-Line's shortest Germany–Sweden routes and takes roughly six hours on suitable departures.
Trelleborg–Klaipėda links southern Sweden directly with Lithuania and takes about 16.5 hours on the current passenger route information.
The original EUFerry TT-Line route map shows the broader network. TT-Line currently connects Travemünde, Rostock, Świnoujście and Klaipėda with the Swedish network centred on Trelleborg, while Karlshamn is also part of the route system.
Some routes are direct and others use a through itinerary or a guided ship change in Trelleborg. Use the live booking result for the exact route sequence.
After choosing the most practical route, compare the live TT-Line sailing for departure time, calling pattern, passenger requirements and the facilities or accommodation shown for that service. The complete itinerary and arrival location can matter more than a small difference in the headline fare.
TT-Line's current network also includes direct weekend Travemünde–Klaipėda departures and additional Lithuania services via Trelleborg, so do not assume every Germany–Lithuania booking follows the same pattern.
These ports represent TT-Line's Swedish hub, one of its principal German gateways and its easternmost Baltic destination.
Trelleborg is TT-Line's central route hub and a practical arrival point for Malmö, Copenhagen, southern Sweden and onward Scandinavian road trips.

Rostock is well positioned for Berlin, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and travellers approaching Scandinavia from central and eastern Germany.
Explore German Baltic ferry ports
Klaipėda is TT-Line's easternmost passenger destination and a useful starting point for Lithuania, Latvia and wider Baltic-state road trips.
Explore Baltic destinationsFor Germany–Sweden travel, compare Travemünde and Rostock around your motorway approach. For Lithuania, read the complete itinerary to see whether your chosen departure is direct or changes ferry in Trelleborg.

TT-Line is particularly useful for Scandinavian and Baltic road trips, with extensive vehicle capacity and pet-friendly accommodation across the passenger network.
Cars and motorcycles can be booked across TT-Line's passenger network subject to route and deck capacity.
Touring vehicles are central to TT-Line's holiday market. Selected newer Green Ships also offer onboard electric-car charging.
Pets must be pre-booked. TT-Line offers pet cabins, dog toilets and access to public areas under its current onboard rules.
Wheelchair-accessible cabin categories and accessible ship facilities are available on suitable TT-Line ferries.
TT-Line uses online check-in and self-service machines extensively, but route-specific port closing times still apply even after online check-in.
Eligible fully paid bookings can complete TT-Line's online check-in from 48 hours before departure.
Most TT-Line ports begin passenger processing roughly two to three hours before the scheduled sailing.
This is the standard current TT-Line rule for vehicles on sailings to Germany, unless the booked sailing has a stricter requirement.
Foot and bicycle passengers need additional time for terminal processing and shuttle arrangements.
Departures to Świnoujście and Klaipėda use an earlier closing time. Świnoujście vehicle check-in also closes 60 minutes before departure.
TT-Line is particularly attractive for travellers driving between continental Europe and Scandinavia. Travemünde suits Hamburg and western approaches, while Rostock can be the better gateway from Berlin, eastern Germany and central Europe.
Świnoujście creates a direct Poland–Sweden corridor, while Klaipėda opens the Baltic states and eastern Europe. Through itineraries involving Trelleborg can save substantial road distance even when the sea journey is longer.
Accommodation also changes the calculation. A cabin on a night sailing can replace a hotel stop and allow the driver to begin the next road stage rested.
TT-Line's current passenger network connects the German ports of Travemünde and Rostock, the Polish port of Świnoujście and the Lithuanian port of Klaipėda with southern Sweden. Trelleborg is the main Swedish hub, while Karlshamn is also integrated into the wider TT-Line network. Some Lithuania and Karlshamn journeys use through services or an easy ship change in Trelleborg.
TT-Line currently describes the Travemünde–Trelleborg crossing as taking roughly 7 to 9 hours, with both daytime and overnight departures.
Rostock–Trelleborg is one of TT-Line's fastest Germany–Sweden links and takes roughly six hours on suitable departures.
TT-Line currently describes the Trelleborg–Klaipėda journey as taking about 16.5 hours.
Check-in depends on port and destination. For Germany-bound sailings, vehicle check-in generally closes 30 minutes before departure and pedestrian or cyclist check-in 45 minutes before.
