Hurtigruten (company)
Hurtigruten is a Norwegian coastal ferry service and cruise line headquartered in Oslo, Norway. It is the larger of two companies currently operating Hurtigruten, the coastal ferry service along the Norwegian coast from which it takes its name.
The CEO is Hedda Felin.
Hurtigruten is the result of a merger between the previous operators of the Hurtigruten service, Troms Fylkes Dampskibsselskap (TFDS) and Ofotens og Vesteraalens Dampskibsselskab (OVDS). TFDS was founded in 1866, and OVDS was established in 1912 (ODS) and 1881 (VDS). The two companies merged in March 2006 to form Hurtigruten Group ASA, and twelve months later the merged entity assumed the name Hurtigruten ASA.[citation needed]
Vesteraalens Dampskibsselskab and the company founder, Richard With, pioneered the Norwegian Coastal Express in 1893, and Hurtigruten has continuously served the route since then.
In 2012, the company headquarters was moved from Narvik to Tromsø. In October 2014, TDR Capital purchased a majority ownership of Hurtigruten. In 2015, the legal form of Hurtigruten was changed from ASA to AS.
In 2021, the international and the Norwegian branches of the company was separated operationally.
Hurtigruten is one of two operators of the Hurtigruten (literally "The Fast Route"), a daily passenger ferry, cruise, and shipping line along the western and northern Norwegian coast. It operates between the southern city of Bergen and the northeastern city of Kirkenes. A total of 7 ships operate this route.
Hurtigruten also sails two Signature routes along the Norwegian coast: The North Cape Line and The Svalbard Line.
