BC Ferries to introduce new discounts for major routes this fall

BC Ferries is planning to make some major changes to their booking and fare system.

The changes would include a new booking and fare model, paired alongside discounts for passengers travelling at off-peak times.

“We plan to slowly introduce new fare choices on the routes between Metro Vancouver and Vancouver Island,” said executive director Deborah Marshall.

“We will introduce discounts at off-peak times for customers who have flexibility in their travel plans. We expect that the discounted fares will distribute traffic more evenly across sailings.”

The new system will be rolled out on three major routes:

  • Tsawwassen – Swartz Bay
  • Tsawwassen – Duke Point
  • Horseshoe Bay – Departure Bay

The new booking and fare model hopes to launch in the fall where the reservation fee would be included in the price of the fare.
