Excess Luggage:
BC Transit's priority is to carry people not luggage. We do
our best to accommodate all customers, but oversize luggage
and backpacks are a safety concern and can be difficult to
accommodate on any transit system. Please put your luggage
on your lap or on the floor where it will not obstruct the
aisle. There will be trips where we cannot accommodate everyone
with their luggage. In these situations we will do our best
to inform you when the next transit bus is scheduled and what
other transportation options are available to you. If you
are planning to travel with large luggage, Pacific
Coach Lines serves the Swartz Bay and Tsawwassen ferry
terminals and is well equipped for passenger and luggage service.
