Tallink Grupp delays re-opening of Riga-Stockholm route until 3 June 2022
Tallink Grupp has today announced that it will delay the reopening of the company’s Riga-Stockholm route, which has been suspended due to the COVID pandemic for two years and was due to be re-opened on 6 April this spring, until 3 June 2022.
The decision to delay the re-opening was made due to low booking volumes among passengers for the months of April and May resulting from the current geopolitical uncertainties, as well as the significant hike in fuel prices globally. Due to the current situation it is not possible to operate the Riga-Stockhholm route profitably in April and May.
Tallink Grupp will contact all the passengers affected by this decision and offer them alternative options fort ravelling or for cancelling their bookings.
