About the Långnäs – Kapellskär crossing
Leaving Åland westward, Finnlines has three departures a day from Långnäs to Kapellskär: 16:00 on Mondays and Tuesdays, 15:00 from Wednesday to Sunday, and 03:55 in the small hours every night. The day crossings take 3½ to 3¾ hours and the night one is the quickest at 3 hours 20 minutes, arriving at 06:15.
Sweden is an hour behind Åland, so a 16:00 departure lands at 18:30 Swedish time. The timetable looks like a 2½-hour hop, which it is not.
For daytime sailings, check-in opens two hours ahead and closes 30 minutes before departure for foot passengers — the desk waits for the 14:45 bus feeding the 15:00 boat. Night departures are checked in on board instead: be at the harbour half an hour before, with your booking confirmation and identification. Finnsirius and Finncanopus run the service.
