Ferry passengers travelling between Victoria and Vancouver will be able to buy a glass of wine or beer with a meal beginning in late October. BC Ferries initially planned to launch the pilot in June but had to delay sales while it waited for liquor licence approval from the province. The program scheduled to run for a year will limit purchases to one drink per customer and only be offered in the Pacific Buffet area. BC Ferries already offers beer and wine for sale on northern routes sailing to and from Port Hardy, Prince Rupert, Haida Gwaii and Central Coast ports but this is the first time it will be offered on sailings linking Vancouver and Victoria.
