Frequently Asked Questions

Question:

Do any passengers have priority in boarding the ferry?

Answer:

Yes, although the Authority’s larger ferries will generally have sufficient capacity for all passengers who wish to travel on a particular trip. If the Authority believes that the carrying capacity of a vessel will be reached before sailing time, passengers traveling in vehicles with reservations have boarding priority over passengers traveling in standby vehicles and walk-on passengers, and passengers traveling in vehicles traveling on a standby basis have boarding priority over walk-on passengers.
