For those who don’t have a booking, the crown corporation is recommending people travel on off-peak sailings or walk-on to avoid waiting.

B.C. Ferries is also reminding people about how quickly its parking lots fill, encouraging people to take public transit or use a ride share service.

The Victoria Day long weekend is the fourth busiest travel weekend of the year for the company.
