A little preparation can help your pet feel more settled during a ferry journey. Before leaving, get them used to their travel carrier if you plan to use one, and pack a familiar blanket, drinking water and their usual food. Give dogs an opportunity for a walk and a toilet break before reaching the port. If your pet is prone to travel sickness or anxiety, ask your vet for advice ahead of the trip.

Check-in Information Rostock – Malmö

For a relaxed start to your crossing, keep your booking confirmation handy and locate your departure terminal before setting out. Plan your journey to the port with room for traffic or delays on connecting transport. If your booking specifies a check-in deadline, work back from that time rather than the sailing’s departure time, so you leave enough time to reach the correct terminal without rushing.
