@SteamshipMA@SenWarren@SenMarkey@maura_healey yet again, no oversight and this monopoly continues to charge outrageous rates compared to other ferries and can't figure out basic tech issues. Imagine if airlines functioned like this & everyone booked for the year on the same day?!
Raise your hand if you think May in DC was one of the nicest months you can remember.
* 87% of days with highs 65-85.
* Little rain
* Least humidity in May since 2005
* Not a single severe storm

@kathycasagrande @NiasCorner1 @SteamshipMA@hylinecruises should bring car service to the islands. Then SSA would fix this issue. Same thing for @TownofNantucket people last week.
@SteamshipMA Incompetence strikes again! @MassDOT@EdMarkey@SenWarren can we please get someone to intervene and hold @SteamshipMA accountable? This system is inequitable, ineffective, and frankly dated. Hotels, airlines, restaurants - all have rolling reservations - so can SSA
@SteamshipMA You morons couldn't figure it out a week after the Nantucket day!? When are you going to get a clue? Stop with this stupid system and just go to rolling reservations, like every other industry.
@SteamshipMA Take it from the Nantucket people, don't bother getting up early, or trying to get on at 5AM, instead, clear your lunch schedule - it should be fixed by then.
@humbugbilly@EzraHendrickx@SteamshipMA Or, and I know this is a crazy idea, it's 2023, why not just have rolling reservations that can be made 6 months in advance. You know, kind of like airlines, hotels, etc. This one-day-book-everything seems very antiquated.
@SteamshipMA 4000 reservations times $644 per, you made $2.6M on a crap system. @SenWarren - if public funding goes to @SteamshipMA there needs to be accountability. Price gouging aside, this is insane. Round trip Lewis-Cape May - $38.00/BriPt CT to PortJeff NY - $66
