@BCFerries That’s well understood, but as I was waiting above that ticket booth and watching and trying to decide whether to stay or leave my car, the intel for how full the next ship was shouldn’t jump from 68% to 100% in a flash. That’s an error in providing timely updates.

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@BCFerries how does it make sense that the HSB Langdale 6:05 sailing jumps from 68% full straight to 100% full while waiting in line… not useful updating there

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@BCFerries Thank you 🙏

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@BCFerries at what point today will the HSB Langdale route start offering water taxi service if the ship still cannot sail??

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@BCFerries can someone please properly fix/update the current conditions page for Langdale to HSB? It is clearly showing wrong information for the first sailing which is already arriving at HSB. Thank you.

[West Vancouver Police Department @WestVanPolice]

West Vancouver Police remain on scene at the BC Ferries terminal in Horseshoe Bay, where officers are assisting a person in need and coordinating with partner agencies.

The public is asked to avoid the area and follow the direction of officers on scene. There is no threat to public safety.

Further updates will be provided as information becomes available. For details on ferry schedules, follow @BCFerries. We thank the public for their patience and cooperation.

@BCFerries FYI Chaos when you are waiting over at the dock and no one there knows, and you would be giving up your spot in line to go back to the terminal. Not great support for customers in these — too frequent — situations.

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@BCFerries at HSB now, should I be still waiting at the passenger dock for a water taxi or is that service now ended with the Queen of Surrey having sailed? Should I go back to the terminal? Need accurate guidance

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@BCFerries Did water taxis get called into service?

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@BCFerries please don’t give false information on current conditions. Saying “Helping customers who need assistance boarding” as the reason for the Queen of Surrey delay when it was earlier noted as mechanical/engine problems makes it hard to trust your update info ongoing

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

Omg no sooner does @bcferries put the Queen of Surrey back on the horseshoe bay Langdale route than the ship immediately starts the day 41 minutes delayed due to engine problems … says resolved… sure hope so 🤞🤞

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@BCFerries Oh I see, thx. now 68 minutes late, not 25 minutes late as per the earlier update on the site. Need more frequent updates or corrections.

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@BCFerries Hoping for timely updates, people have to make and adjust plans of course…

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@DriveBC someone driving the wrong way on upper levels highway. Eastbound from Horseshoe Bay on westbound lanes, police alerted. Fingers crossed

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@NHL FYI when my team’s game is on Amazon Prime, I don’t watch, even though I have Prime. I’m so used to being able to record, pause, replay, rewind and forward games that the Prime broadcast is mostly aggravating for me. #ditchPrimeSports

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@AirCanada it’s been two and a half months since you promised full refund for strike-canceled travel in August. With no refund yet despite multiple inquiries, your seat sale promo emails are just aggravating. #killingbrandgoodwill

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@BCFerries when can you bring back the webcam current conditions views for horseshoe bay? We regularly commute HSB langdale and sometimes need to see how congested the lineup might be above the ticket booths

[Kurt Penner @KurtPenner]

@Canucks FYI I don’t like watching the Canucks broadcast on Amazon Prime even though I have the service. I never skip games on sportsnet or cbc but often take a pass on the prime games.
