June 25/08 BC Ferries’ peak season and summer schedule begins today, Wednesday, June 25, with more sailings on all major routes and some of the minor routes. On the Tsawwassen – Swartz Bay route, four vessels are in operation, providing up to 32 sailings per day. Monday through Thursday schedules start with 6:00 a.m. departures and end with the last sailing at 9:00 p.m. On Fridays and Sundays, the last departures from both Tsawwassen and Swartz Bay are at 10:00 p.m. Three
vessels, including the new Coastal Renaissance, will provide up to 22 trips between
Horseshoe Bay and Departure Bay daily.
Two ships will make up to 22 sailings per day on the Horseshoe Bay –
Langdale route from now through until Labour Day. In order to make long weekend travel planning easier, BC Ferries has added a new feature to its website --- a calendar of historically busy travel times on the major routes. Customers can review this information to help make their travel plans. If a specific sailing is desired, particularly on a weekend, BC Ferries recommends making a reservation for the Metro Vancouver – Vancouver Island and Horseshoe Bay – Langdale routes. Reservation allotments can become fully subscribed at peak times on long weekends, so BC Ferries recommends booking these dates well in advance.
