Public Advisory: Apollo Ferry Season Coming to a Close

Travellers and shippers availing of the Apollo ferry service between the communities of St. Barbe and Blanc Sablon are advised that the operating season of the Apollo will end Sunday, January 25.

However, travellers and shippers should be prepared for termination of the service before January 25, if ice conditions dictate. Regardless of conditions after January 25, Labrador Marine Inc. needs to take the vessel out of service to undergo refits which will prepare the ferry for an early start to next season.
