Our services at Alert Level Three
Following the Government Announcement, the Auckland region is in alert level three from 12 noon on Wednesday 12th August, for 3 days. Here is what this means for our Fullers360 services:
Timetables
Services cancelled and on hold until Friday 14th of August include: Rangitoto Island ferry, Waiheke Winter Wine & Dine, and the Waiheke Explorer Hop-on Hop-off bus.
All other Fullers360 timetables are unchanged until further notice. We encourage all customers to keep an eye on the website for updates and MyFerry app for alerts as the situation unfolds and we adjust accordingly.
Passenger Guidelines
We ask all passengers to follow the 2-metre physical distancing guidelines between yourself, fellow travellers and crew at all times. We also encourage passengers to wear a face mask or covering.
To ensure there is enough space to maintain physical distancing on board, our passenger capacity will be reduced until Friday 14th August. We will be operating with 50% passenger capacity on Waiheke Island and Devonport routes, and 20% passenger capacity on all other services.
Health & Safety
The health and safety of our passengers and crew, is a top priority. Our increased cleaning regimes and regular disinfecting of vessels, including fogging, have continued throughout all levels, and will continue. We want to ensure our passengers feel safe while travelling with us at every alert level.
There is hand sanitizer available on wharves, and onboard vessels, as well as hand soap in the rest rooms. For added safety, our sneeze guards will remain in place at our ticket offices, and onboard cafes.
