Due to adverse weather, the final roundtrip for the Port Townsend/Coupeville route has been cancelled this evening. No-show fees will not be charged for the cancelled sailings.

The following sailings have been cancelled:

• 10:00 p.m. Port Townsend to Coupeville
• 10:40 p.m. Coupeville to Port Townsend

This summer, we’ll have 18 vessels in service, allowing us to return to almost full domestic service – three years earlier than originally planned. We will bring back the following service:

• The Seattle/Bremerton route will return to its two-boat schedule starting Sunday, June 15. 

• The Fauntleroy/Vashon/Southworth “Triangle” route will resume its pre-pandemic three-boat schedule beginning Monday, June 30. 

• A second vessel will operate on the Port Townsend/Coupeville run every Friday through Monday from July 4 through the end of the route’s shoulder season on Oct. 13. 

We’re also starting a NEW summer sailing schedule on the Anacortes/San Juan Islands route on Sunday, June 15.  

The reality of adding service: We’ll need to crew three more daily boats for this added service. While we've done a lot of hiring and career development in recent years, we will have fewer available relief crew members. This could mean more cancellations due to a shortage of crew.

At Colman Dock in Seattle, the north stairwell that exits to the Alaskan Way sidewalk is closed this week due to construction. Two other stairwells are located at the south and east sides of the entry building, in addition to the elevators, for walk-on passengers accessing the terminal. This work is part of the final elements of the new terminal project.

The #1 Puyallup is running an estimated 39 minutes behind schedule.

As of Monday, May 12, parking rates increased at the Southworth U-Park lot. The previous $5 flat fee is now $7 for up to 12 hours and $10 for up to 24 hours. This is the first parking rate adjustment at our Southworth terminal in more than 5 years. 

U-Park also introduced a new pay-by-plate system, making it easier to extend your parking time using the Scan to Pay mobile option, available through QR code signage at the lot.
