B.C. Ferries must enact a single-digit percentage fuel rebate to comply with regulations set by the Office of the B.C. Ferries Commissioner that kick in when fuel prices are lower than expected.

But the company has applied to the commissioner to avoid giving the rebate. If it pays out, it would come in the form of rebates on future tickets.

Chief financial officer Brian Anderson said in a statement that the company wants to use the rebate money to offset fare price increases that are expected to come in 2029.

B.C. Ferries has until March 2026 to issue rebates to bring down the balance in its accounts related to fuel surcharges it previously levied on its customers.
