———————————————————————————
Routing from Hammerfest and southwards to Tromsø without blocking ferries will suggest preferred route with the coastal express, which is only leaving daily on a semi daily schedule. Also at least one of the operators have a policy against electric vehicles due to fire hazards. We locals have no problem with this, but this ferry alternative can be unfortunate for tourists, especially northwards as there is a significant detour to Øksfjord.
So this route suggestion should be avoided unless explicitly requested.

Also when not blocking ferry, it routes the ferry route Olderdalen- Lyngseidet without possibility to select the ferryless alternative through Nordkjosbotn.It is only a few minutes difference in time on these routes, so often you won't take the ferry unless you are quite on time with the ferry route, so it should be the secondary alternative.

Ferries are nice and sometimes required, so I usually have the ferry alternative on. But these two issues clutter my routes.
