5:40 am: Punch Card Sale & Exchange–
2026-05-13The Whatcom County Ferry Division has scheduled multi-ride punch card sales and exchange opportunities for the second quarter of 2026:
- Wednesday, May 13: Punch card sales and exchanges, 5:40 a.m.–2:40 p.m.
- Wednesday, June 3: Punch card sales and exchanges, 5:40 a.m.–2:40 p.m.
All events will be held at the Lummi Island Ferry Office (island-side terminal).
When punch card sales and exchanges occur at the same event, riders should expect two separate lines: one for punch card sales and one for exchanges. If only one purser is available, punch card sales will be prioritized over exchanges.
Payments may be made by check, valid U.S. money order, or credit card. Cash is not accepted. Multi-ride punch card exchanges can only be completed in person at scheduled exchange events.
For more information, please contact the Ferry Division at ferry@co.whatcom.wa.us.
