What is the 'försalong' on Destination Gotland?
What the lounge offers, which ships have it and what a seat costs.
Short answer
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.
Why
- Destination Gotland's comfort options describe the försalong as a reclining seat in the lounge where films are shown on the monitors during the crossing.
- Destination Gotland says you can reserve seats in all lounges except the animal lounge.
- Destination Gotland says the fee for reserved seats varies by route, travel date and seat availability, and is included for holders of Reskort, Pendlarkort or Rabattkort.
Details
The comfort page also lists reclining seats in other lounges, such as the aft, middle, children's and animal lounges on SF1650, and compartments (kupé) with sofas, TV, toilet and a power outlet with USB.

Tip
If you want a particular lounge, reserve a seat when you book, since the fee depends on route, date and availability.
