Effective immediately, a new form is being used at all Northern Islands terminals to document free student travel occurring outside usual student commuter sailings.
Student commuter sailings are those sailings on which the bulk of the students travel when going to and returning from school (on designated school days only).
Students returning from school outside of the usual student commuter sailing for their route will be asked to complete and sign a “Free Travel Acknowledgement Form” at the ticket booth and obtain boarding passes if walking on the ferry. This will apply at all times to students who do not normally commute to school who are returning from school activities or junior association events.
There is no change to the existing policy related to free student and junior association travel, only to the procedure being used to document the travel.
BC Ferries thanks our customers for their cooperation as we implement this new procedure to record student travel.
