BC Ferries

Decide to leave their flagship boats in the harbour for the busiest travel weekend of the year and run the old boats.

Good job David!

Docking fees are getting steep, we'll probably see prices go up another 10 bucks.

Well the smart people already fork over an extra 20 bones!

you guy are on a first name basis?

It's an extension of the #1 Trans-Canada freeway, so the ferry should be free. (Dream on)

He's actually very smart for doing this. Those larger ferry's use more fuel, which of of course more $$$. In the end if the company saves more $$$ then his bonus at the end of year is also worth more $$$.

Could be one of those AMEX commercials.

Cost of ferry ticket (wife/kids/care (102.50)
Chips and snacks for the trip - $15

Waiting in line all day - priceless

Cost of customer service - who cares we are a monopoly what choice do they have

baa haa haa

People don't use bc ferries because of the monopoly. They do it because if the adds at the nucks games

The Province should, on a trial basis, lease one berth on the major routes (Tsawassen-Swartz Bay [HTML_REMOVED] Horseshoe Bay-Departure Bay) to the Washington State Ferry Service.

As a consumer I'd like to have a choice when taking my vehicle back [HTML_REMOVED] forth.

Over the last few years with the harbour-to-harbour air services getting a bigger market share I've noticed an improvement in BC Ferries 'foot panssenger' experience. There has been no improvement in the 'drive on experience' and I suspect it has to do with the fact that they're the only show in town. Open it up and see if will benefit us - the consumers.

You're on the Coast Punky. Just be grateful they don't send over a tug and barge and charge extra for the scenery.

Really?!?! people still wait in line? reservations folks. And for the "it costs too much $$$" brigade, redeeming 28000 Save-on-More points gets you a car and driver voucher. Shop there(espescially during "sky High " points week)buy Gas at Chevron and it happens quicker than you think.

That is great when you plan a trip somewhere weeks (sometime months) in advance, but it makes it hard to be spontaneous or to alter your plans once you have left.

I'm so glad the interior ferries are free. I used to get so pissed off when I lived on the SSC, now I only get pissed off once or twice a year when I visit. Can't believe how much they charge for a car and driver now, let alone a fcuking foot passenger.

Moan snivel bitch the Ferry costs to much.
Bitch bitch I won't pay higher taxes bitch moan
Whine snivel whine.. how does Quebec get these benefits? Bitch bitch it's so unfair.
