SEATTLE – Washington State Ferries’ spring schedule begins Sunday, March 24, with additional service, as traffic picks up after the winter lull.
Normal spring service increases include:
- One trip per day to Sidney, B.C., similar to the fall schedule
- Weekend inter-island service in the San Juan Islands, similar to the fall schedule
- Three-boat service eight hours a day Saturday and Sunday on the Fauntleroy
Beginning May 12, two-boat service will resume on the Port Townsend/Coupeville route, similar to two-boat service in 2012. This year WSF will continue, on a trial basis, last year’s late evening sailings on Fridays and Saturdays during the mid-May through mid-October peak period (10 p.m. from Port Townsend and 10:40 p.m. from Coupeville).
New changes from prior years include:
Anacortes/San Juan Islands: Minor changes to some morning and early midday sailings
Edmonds/Kingston (weekends)
Late evening schedule changes on Saturdays and Sundays to better match the weekday evening sailing times
Additional morning sailings at 5:35 a.m. from Kingston and 6:20 a.m. from Edmonds Saturdays only
A 10:30 p.m. from Kingston and 11:10 p.m. from Edmonds will operate Sundays only. The last trip on Saturdays and Sundays will continue to sail at 11:05 p.m. from Kingston and 11:45 p.m. from Edmonds.
