On Destination Gotland, the försalong is a lounge with reclining seats where films are shown on monitors during the crossing. It is listed for the ships SF1650 and SF1500. Gotland residents can reserve a seat in the försalong at no extra cost, and for other travellers the fee for reserved seats varies with route, date and availability.
