Overview
- BC Ferries expects to surpass last summer’s 10.3 million passengers and will start its peak schedule on June 11 with more sailings to handle World Cup traffic.
- To boost reliability, the company finished refits on 22 vessels, hired more than 630 seasonal workers, and added about 1,800 extra trips across the network.
- Customers will find more reservation space and 425,000 Saver fares starting at $39 for a vehicle and driver on five routes between June and September.
- All 37 ships will be in service with little room for breakdowns, and a public Summer Service Contingency Plan details how crews will respond to disruptions like storms or wildfires.
- BC Ferries is monitoring fuel costs and may add a temporary surcharge with advance notice, and drivers on Horseshoe Bay–Departure Bay must book in advance as Hullo adds late-night Vancouver–Nanaimo trips on match days.
