About the Jektvik hurtigbåtkai – Kilboghamn hurtigbåtkai crossing
This timetable does not start until 6 November 2026. The single departure listed — 08:40 on Fridays — belongs to a winter plan running through to 29 January 2027, so it is not a sailing you can take today. The page shows it because it is the next published edition, not the current one.
Faster than the car ferry, and a different boat
The express craft covers the 8.4 nautical miles in 30 minutes. The car ferry on the same water takes 50. The difference is not just speed: this is a passenger-only vessel, so anyone with a vehicle is on the slower service regardless of which suits the clock better.
Same crossing, same Arctic Circle
The route runs the same stretch of Værangen and the Sørfjorden as the vehicle link, which means it passes the same line at 66° north. What changes is the frequency: where the ferry offers eleven departures spread across the week, the winter express offers one.
Check the season before relying on it
Express services in Nordland are published in dated blocks and the gaps between them are real gaps, not oversights. If you need this crossing before November, the Kilboghamn to Jektvik car ferry is the service that is actually running.
