  • BC Ferries tackles IT issue

B-C Ferries says its website, mobile app and call centre were down due to an I-T issue over the long weekend. 

The company issued several tweets as it worked to fix the issue, saying it had received no reports about any problems with its reservation system. 

The ferry corporation says it quickly identified the issue hours after the outage and provided scheduling updates on Twitter throughout Monday morning until the afternoon when the system came back online. 

B-C Ferries apologized to those affected by the outage as people inquired about the busy long weekend travel situation.
