Air services to and from the islands are provided solely by Atlantic Airways (www.atlantic.fo), a small airline that has done its very best to maintain some sort of service against all odds. But no luck today, it seems.

It is no surprise to hear that the weekly boat from the Faroes to Denmark, the Norröna (pictured in the post above) operated by Smyril Line (www.smyril-line.fo), is fully booked for its regular Thursday journey to Denmark tomorrow. The voyage takes 36 hours. One of Europe’s most appealing ferry routes, we really recommend this journey. Smyril also operate a weekly service from the Faroes to Iceland.

And, the one percent statistic is eye opening. Puts the crisis in ‘plane’ perspective. Thanks for sharing.
