BC Ferries A-Go-Go....Maybe They Should Just Start Overbooking Reservations?

It's the last Saturday morning in July.....

And I hope everyone is where they want to be already on this fine BC Day long weekend.

However, if you are/will be/or have been stuck-in a BC Ferries line-up, I feel for you.

But the folks I feel for most are the passengers that were stuck in the massive line-ups that started piling up last Tuesday.

Yes.

Last Tuesday.

Which begs the question....If ticket prices are up and ridership is down, why exactly is this happening?

Hmmmmm.....

I wonder if all those instantaeously full ferries has anything to do with the ratcheting up of percentages per sailing that are held back for those suckers and/or folks that actually have to get somewhere on time who are willing to pay for the privilege of being held hostage to David Hahn's 'reservation' policy that is actually pretending to be something other than what it really is.

Which, of course, is nothing less than a $35 round-trip price increase.
