Drivers without a reservation are facing lengthy waits on the mainland as ferry overflows continue into Monday (Feb. 24).
After a busy weekend, the first ferry to Greater Victoria from Tsawwassen with deck space – 18 per cent – is at 3 p.m., as of 6:30 a.m.
The same deck space remained on the next ferry with room sailing out of Swartz Bay in North Saanich – the 9 a.m. aboard the Coastal Inspiration.
As of 2 p.m. on Sunday (Feb. 23) the ferry service was selling tickets to the 7 p.m. sailing from Tsawwassen with the 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. full and only 11 per cent deck space left on the 7.
By 5 p.m. deck space for the day was at capacity.
