Understanding Our Schedule

Winter 2018 Sailing Schedule contains these changes from the prior sailing schedule:

Times are in color for morning or late night (a.m.) departures, and in black for afternoon/evening (p.m.) departures. Times listed are departure times unless otherwise noted. The schedule begins with the first sailing time for that day and ends with the last sailing time, which may be past midnight and technically on the following day.

Significant changes to the schedule have been made to accommodate construction at Colman Dock in Seattle. Several sailings have been moved from 5 to 15 minutes later.

Please pay special attention to annotations next to a sailing time.

• Seattle/Bremerton

Significant changes to the schedule have been made to accommodate construction at Colman Dock in Seattle. Several sailings have been moved from 5 to 15 minutes earlier.

• Anacortes/San Juan Islands

Four vessels in service on weekdays, three vessels in service on weekends.

• Anacortes/Sidney, BC

Regular weekday service will be operated on both Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Monday, January 15; and Presidents Day, Monday, February 19.

exceptions. Heavy traffic may require earlier arrival. For reservation routes, refer to your confirmation for the required arrival time. On some routes, expect to move your vehicle while waiting in line.

Once on board, secure bikes in the location provided. When leaving the vessel, please watch for and stay out of the way of vehicles. Shoes with metal sports cleats are not permitted in passenger areas.

Walk-on passengers should plan to be on board at least five minutes prior to scheduled departure time, except where noted. Security requirements dictate that once loading has begun, the captain’s permission is required to disembark the vessel.

Only service animals are allowed in terminal buildings or interior cabin spaces, except for pets in a carrier. However, pets are permitted on the exposed upper decks of vessels on some routes. Ask terminal staff for loading procedures, as vessels and terminals vary.

Washington State Ferries is part of the state highway system; therefore, using a cell phone while driving on or off the ferry is prohibited by law. WSF is a participant in the WSDOT HERO program. Line cutters into ferry queues may be reported at 877-764-HERO (4376). Vehicles that are over 7’2” in height or over 22’ in length, including those with tall antennas, may be loaded out of sequence. Vehicles without 12” of clearance from the ground may not be loaded. Bicyclists and persons carrying kayaks or canoes should wait near the front of the loading area, since they normally load first. Crews will direct passengers on placement of kayaks and canoes.

Fares Passenger fares are round trip, with the exception of the Port Townsend/ Coupeville route and sailings to/ from Sidney, BC. Most vehicle fares are one-way with the exception of the San Juan Islands and Vashon Island routes, which are round-trip fares. Vehicle fares are based on a vehicle’s length, height, and width, as well as the distance traveled on board the ferry. Please refer to the Passenger and Vehicle Fares brochure or contact us via the information on the back panel of this schedule for details. You can pre-purchase your ferry ticket by going to our website. Cash, travelers checks and major credit cards are accepted. A receipt
