Merideth Tall, CEO and Chair of Clipper, announced today that the company will launch their new passenger ferry service between downtown Victoria and downtown Vancouver in Spring 2017.
“Clipper is committed to getting it right,” says Tall. “We’ve built our reputation around trust, reliability, safety and customer service over 30 years of operating year round in the surrounding waters. With the wrong vessel, we know that the Salish Sea between Victoria and Vancouver can present a challenge to customer comfort. The right vessel will meet or exceed our travellers’ expectations while maintaining our high standards. Getting this right for our customers and our tourism partners is of critical importance. Expansion at this time will not come at the expense of excellence.”
Clipper will focus its immediate attention on strengthening and building new travel experiences for customers in the Victoria-Vancouver markets for the 2016 tourist season.
