Sailings from Hollis to Ketchikan October 2020

The Alaska Marine Highway system has agreed to add sailings to provide transportation between Prince
of Wales Island and Ketchikan. The M/V Lituya will be providing 2 sailings per week. The Lituya’s vehicle
capacity is roughly 35% less than the Stikine and passenger capacity is roughly 25% less. The reduced
capacities and reduced number of sailings per week equates into less transit opportunities. If you are
able to reschedule your travel for after October 31, 2020, it will allow the IFA to make sure that all
critical transportation needs are met.
