Low water level in lakes

Valid thru: For the time being

Published on 21.10.2025 10:46

In the Vuoksi water system area, lake water levels are exceptionally low!

We urge all drivers to exercise great caution when driving onto or off the cable ferry, as the height difference between the road and the water surface creates an angle between the cable ferry and the ramp, as well as between the ramp and the road. This angle must be taken into account especially with vehicles that have low ground clearance or long front/rear overhangs.


Finferries' commuter ferry booking system

Valid thru: For the time being

Published on 06.05.2024 13:17

Updated

Finferries' commuter ferry booking system can be found at booking.finferries.fi. On our homepage finferries.fi you can also find a link to the system.

We ask our customers to familiarise themselves with the booking system and book a commuter ferry trip through the booking system. In the booking system you can book space for passengers, vehicles and cargo up to two weeks before your desired departure date.

After registering as a new user at booking.finferries.fi, you can start booking a trip.

A favorite feature can be found in the booking system. When booking a trip, you have the option to save your favorite route and frequently used vehicle. Later, when booking trips, you can select the saved favorite routes and vehicles from the Favorites section on the booking system's frontpage.

An automatic loading function can also be found in the booking system. With this feature, passengers can see how much space is left on different departures already when making a booking. In the booking process, the passenger selects the desired departure time and vehicle type. The system checks the selection and suggests a suitable departure for the chosen day that has capacity. We ask you to book a vehicle that matches the actual vehicle – otherwise, it there may not be space onboard the vessel. Booking requests are processed during working hours within a few hours.

Color codes in the booking process:

• Green: The passenger gets a spot and receives a booking confirmation immediately.
• Yellow: The captain of the vessel checks if there is space on the vessel and the booking is confirmed once the captain has approved the booking request.
• Red: The departure is fully booked and cannot be booked.
.

If you have any questions about the booking system, you can call the booking system helpline +358 20 7118 751 (on weekdays 9-11 and 11.30-15) or send an email to booking-support@finferries.fi
