The ferry between Horseshoe Bay and Langdale is more than 70 minutes behind schedule Tuesday afternoon.
"The Queen of Surrey departed 78 minutes behind schedule for the 3:35 pm sailing from Langdale (Sunshine Coast) to Horseshoe Bay (Vancouver) due to an earlier medical emergency that has since been resolved," said a service notice issued at 5:10 p.m. Aug. 15.
The Queen of Surrey returned to Langdale port shortly after departing for its 8:40 a.m. run because of a medical emergency, which was soon resolved. A service notice issued shortly after the event said the ship was 35 minutes behind schedule at that point.
"Despite the delay, please arrive during the check-in window noted in your booking confirmation email to maintain your reserved status. This ensures we can stage your vehicle at the terminal ahead of standby customers and those reserved on later sailings," the afternoon service notice reminds customers.
