The HH Ferry route (About the name: Helsingør - Helsinborg; Helsingør is Danish for Elsinore) is one of the world's busiest international car ferry routes The short itinerary goes between Elsinore ( Helsingør) at Zealand, Denmark and Helsingborg, Scania, Sweden across the northern, and narrowest part of Øresund. The route is currently served by car ferry shipping line Scandlines and a smaller passenger shipping line known as Sundbusserne ("The Sound Buses"). Scandlines' ferries operate more than 70 daily departures from each harbour, every 15 minutes for most of the day, and also every 12 minutes during the peak summer weeks by the use of an extra ferry. As the distance between Denmark and Sweden here only is around 2.5 nautical miles (approx. 4 km), the crossing time is just 20 minutes. While Sundbusserne, currently (as of January 2015) departs every hour with their only "bus".
