Here is a detailed report of our trip to northern Germany, Denmark and
the Netherlands in June this year (by car + plane from Munich):

What a strange route to include Amsterdam in a trip to
Germany/Denmark/Sweden

Of course people arrive early for a twice a day ferry.. Many of them will
have come from 100s of kms away and will have left a lot of slack in their
drive so that they don't miss it. Even so, if you come from a short
distance away and can time your arrival for the last minute, many occasional
ferries have a minimum check in of 1 hour - arriving only 20 minutes before
it leaves is just asking to be left on the quay-side (though I can't find
Stena's rules about this)

Would have been interesting to know how long you queued for the Fehmarnbelt
ferry.
