Cargo Policy

​

For scheduled trips, when you travel with Cormorant Marine consider luggage limitations on our boats. Guidance: if you can carry it in-one-go; we can too. We charge extra for excess baggage per person over and above personal goods and luggage.. Payment for this will be collected when loading at the pick-up locations by cash or credit card. Items considered “excessive and over-sized” and not personal luggage include: freight, all fuels, building materials, gardening materials, machinery and furniture etc. These must be discussed with dispatch prior to booking. For booking freight transportation please contact; Operations Manager Mike Laudrum directly at 604-250-2630.

 

For chartered trips, please discuss your cargo needs with our dispatch. 

Cancellations & Rebookings

​

For scheduled trips to and from Gambier Island (Bowyer Island), you can rebook or cancel your reservation online 12 hours prior to the trip. No show - No refund 

​

You will have to have booked the trip while logged on to our site with your user id to be able to rebook it ahead of time. Your logon to our web site ties the booking to you. To rebook, log on and go to My Bookings and reschedule. There is no charge! You can only rebook the group that you previously booked as a whole. If you have the situation where individuals in your group might want to rebook separately, book them in separate transactions in anticipation of that. You can only rebook to another online scheduled trip; the online booking can't be applied to a charter. If you can't rebook and you need to cancel, please note, refunds currently take 5 to 10 days for our processing service and the refund is subject to an 8% non-refundable booking fee. If possible, reschedule your trip to an available sailing. No partial cancellations or partial rebookings are possible!

​

There is a new alternative. If you purchase a Cormorant eCard, it will come preloaded with 10 or 20 trips. When a trip was booked with the Cormorant eCard, you can cancel the trip a minimum of 12 hours before the scheduled departure time and have the balance returned to your card immediately without a fee.

​

For chartered trips, please liaise with our dispatch 12 hours before departure. Charges may apply.
