This is an estimateof typical demand, based on Washington State Ferries’ published “Best Times to Travel” patterns — not a live forecast. Real waits can spike without warning (a holiday, an incident, or a smaller substitute boat), so on the day, always check the live ferry board. Sailing times are the real WSF schedule for this date. It also learns from 70,633 live sailing observations we've logged over 95 days, and sharpens as more come in.
