• The ferry operates first-come, first-served.
• Tickets are available for sale at the ticket office at the Anacortes terminal; however, pre-purchasing online or via the mobile app will simplify the boarding process.
• Vehicle tickets include the vehicle and driver only. All additional passengers must have their own ticket, including anyone covered under the youth ride free program (age 18 and under).
• Have your IDs ready for purchasing senior (age 65+) or disabled fares at the ticket office.
• When measuring your vehicle for oversize fares, please include the total length, including any overhang. Ferry staff will measure again before boarding; if you’ve overpaid or underpaid, you’ll need to come to the ticket office to get the correct ticket.
• If you are unsure of which ticket to purchase, please ask a crew member for assistance.
• ALL sales are final and no refunds will be issued.

Here is some helpful boarding information for your upcoming trip:
