Read Authentic Ratings for the Sognefjord

On the morning of February 28, 2019, an allision occurred involving the ferry Sognefjord and the dock at Fure. The incident resulted in the suspension of the Askvoll - Fure - Værlandet ferry service, as the accompanying ferry, Nordfjord, was undergoing maintenance at a nearby yard. Fortunately, there were three passengers on board during the incident, and none sustained injuries. However, the dock sustained damage, prompting Sognefjord to return to Askvoll to safely disembark the passengers. The ferry itself also incurred minor damage that required repairs. In response to the disruption, Fjord1 deployed a passenger boat to operate between Askvoll and Værlandet starting at 8 a.m., as there were no available spare ferries in the vicinity.

On January 4, 2018, the ferry 'Sognefjord' was forced to suspend its operations on the Anda - Lote route following a significant technical setback. The vessel encountered issues with the cooling system of its primary engine, prompting the necessity for immediate service interruption. As a result, the route was temporarily managed by a single ferry until 6:40 PM, causing inconvenience for passengers relying on this vital transportation link.

On July 30, 2017, the ferry 'Sognefjord' experienced operational disruptions on the Anda-Lote route due to a malfunction in its cooling water system. The vessel was forced to anchor outside the fjord, refraining from taking on passengers or vehicles at its Lote docking point. The incident stemmed from an influx of sludge, plastic debris, and other refuse entering the fjord, which obstructed the cooling system and led to engine failure. After undergoing maintenance and cleaning procedures, the ferry successfully resumed its services on July 31 at 9 a.m.
