  • Kitsap Fast Ferries Reservation System Fact Sheet
    Kitsap Fast Ferries Reservation System Fact Sheet Kitsap Transit introduced a reservation system in 2017 when it launched fast ferry service between Bremerton and Seattle and has strived to make improvements to the system based on user feedback. This fact sheet addresses common user questions and concerns. Why can’t I get reservations for the sailings I want? The simple answer is that demand for seats far outstrips the number of seats available. When the reservation window opens at 9:00 AM, more than 400 users compete for the 88 spots on each of our three morning commuter sailings (5:25 AM, 6:45 AM, 8:00 AM) and the 88 spots on each of our three afternoon commuter sailings (3:55 PM, 5:10 PM, 6:25 PM). With most of those users seeking both a departure and return reservation each day, there are 264 reservations available per day. As a result, in the best case, users will get a reservation between 60 percent and 66 percent of the time; to be sure, reservations are most difficult to get on the most popular sailings to Seattle in the morning and to Bremerton in the afternoon due to overwhelming demand. What improvements has Kitsap Transit made to the reservation system? The system allocates reservations on a first-come, first-serve basis. On June 1, Kitsap Transit beefed up the processing power to manage the surge of reservation requests when the window opens, and the result has been faster page loads and shorter transaction times. In mid-June, the agency rolled out a major change to its booking process that allows a user to book a week’s worth of trips in one transaction.
