The ice situation in the Port of Aarhus has worsened significantly over the weekend, and the fast ferry LILLEØRE is therefore canceling all departures between Sælvig and Aarhus until and including Wednesday, February 18, due to ice in the entire port basin in the Port of Aarhus and outside the port. The port basin is now so packed with ice that unfortunately there are long prospects for Lilleøre to be operational again. In the coming weekend, the temperature in Aarhus will drop to around -8 degrees, and it is expected that the ice will pack in further. We are continuously assessing the situation and will make an announcement again on Tuesday, February 17 around noon, regarding the possibility of resuming sailing with LILLEØRE. Tickets for the affected departures will be cancelled and refunded automatically. A commuter bus will be introduced for pedestrians Monday to Friday, departing from Hou at 6:45 a.m. and from the ferry berth at Dokk1 in Aarhus at 4:00 p.m. It is not possible to bring bicycles on the bus. Registration is required no later than the day before at 2:00 PM by email to tilsamsoe@samsoe.dk or by phone at 70225900 The Sælvig – Hou route with the PRINCESSE ISABELLA is not affected by the ice. Samsø Rederi apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause you.
We send out traffic information if we deviate from schedule for more than 15 minutes.
We put a virtue in letting our customers know what is going on. So you can be sure that if it says that we are on schedule, we are.
As soon as we know we are going to be delayed or something else, we will let you know as soon as possible.
Broadcasting traffic information is not just about updating the information on this page. We also send text messages via our text message service. Just as we have to deal with a delay or cancellation by closing departures in our system, possibly moving customers to new departures, calling hauliers who need to move their trucks to new departures and much more.
We are therefore always very busy when we experience delays or cancellations. Therefore, we encourage you to follow along on this page and not call or write to us, as we have nothing more to say than you can read here.
Thank you for your understanding.
