SOME BC FERRIES NANAIMO EXTRA SAILINGS CANCELLED

QUEEN OF ALBERNI OUT OF SERVICE

FOR ONE WEEK

The Queen of Alberni, operating between Duke Point and Tsawwassen, has
experienced a mechanical failure on one of its main engines and is expected to be out of service
for approximately one week as the vessel undergoes repairs.

The Queen of Coquitlam, which is scheduled to provide extra service on the Horseshoe BayDeparture Bay route, will be deployed to the Duke Point – Tsawwassen route starting Saturday, December 22. The regular schedule will remain in effect on that route from December 22 onward.

On the Horseshoe BayDeparture Bay route, the two regular vessels, the Queen of Cowichan and Queen of Oak Bay will provide service on the regular schedule. The extra sailings scheduled for the next week are cancelled.

All sailings on the Tsawwassen – Swartz Bay route, including the extra sailings will remain as scheduled.

BC Ferries estimates the Queen of Alberni will return to service in approximately one week. An update regarding repairs to the Queen of Alberni will be provided next week.
