We started adding midday and evening sailings on our Fauntleroy/Vashon/Southworth run this week to fill gaps in the weekday two-boat schedule.
In our recent update to the Plan that lays out a timeline for restoring the remaining routes (PDF 1MB) <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDIsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpjbGljayIs

we will consider it fully restored (as was the case prior to the pandemic, there may still be some sailing cancellations due to crewing or vessel repairs).

Plan for possible delays after arriving in Seattle if you’re leaving the terminal in a vehicle. One of the two Yesler Way exit lanes may be closed weekdays from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. through
Tuesday, March 28, for city of Seattle sidewalk work along Alaskan Way. Both lanes will be closed and all vehicles must exit at Marion Street from 8 p.m. to 4:30 a.m. Monday, March
20, through the morning of Friday, March 24.

Orcas caught on video during sailing on Mukilteo/Clinton route
There are some perks to working on the Salish Sea. One of them is seeing marine wildlife. Chief Mate Graham Dewitt spotted a pod of orcas on Sunday. To share the amazing sight with others,

wayfinding and signage. This means we're getting closer to our spring opening of the entry building and the elevated walkway that links it to the terminal building. We’ll share more
information as we get closer to opening the full facility. Once the entire project is complete, there will be a mix of up to 10 food and retail businesses located throughout the terminal
and entry buildings. These will open after the vendors have been given time to finish their spaces.

wayfinding and signage. This means we're getting closer to our spring opening of the entry building and the elevated walkway that links it to the terminal building. We’ll share more
information as we get closer to opening the full facility. Once the entire project is complete, there will be a mix of up to 10 food and retail businesses located throughout the terminal
and entry buildings. These will open after the vendors have been given time to finish their spaces.
