Service Alert – Weather This Weekend – 10/27/18
NYC Ferry service is currently slated to operate on a normal schedule this weekend.

If any trips are canceled or service is temporarily suspended at a landing, notifications will be posted on ferry.nyc and via the NYC Ferry app.

Service Alert – Governors Island
As you know, NYC Ferry has been operating weekend service to Governors Island through a dedicated shuttle between Pier 11/Wall Street and Yankee Pier due to ongoing maintenance. We understand the inconvenience this has posed for some of our riders, and are working closely with the Trust For Governor’s Island to expedite the work as soon as possible.
However, due to prolonged maintenance work, the NYC Ferry shuttle service will continue for the remainder of our summer season. All riders wishing to visit the Island will need to transfer to the ferry shuttle at Pier 11/Wall Street (at Slip D) that will take them directly to Yankee Pier on Governors Island. While the ferry shuttle does not run on a set schedule, it will pick up and drop off approximately every 30 minutes.
All riders are required to show a valid NYCF app or paper ticket, or a transfer ticket in order to board the shuttle. To depart the island using the NYC Ferry shuttle to Pier 11/Wall Street, riders must be in the departure line with a valid NYC Ferry ticket at Yankee Pier by 6:00 PM. After that time, riders will be directed to take either the Governors Island ferry service to Pier 6 in Brooklyn or to the Battery Maritime Building in Lower Manhattan.
If you have any questions, please find a uniformed NYC Ferry crew member who will be available to assist.
Thank you for riding with NYC Ferry. We hope you enjoy the rest of the summer season with us. Have a happy and safe weekend.
