Timetable How can we get to the islands?

At the moment, not many ferries come to our islands. For this reason, most people go to other
islands either by water taxi or plane.

Cost
At themoment, you can only get to some islands either very early in the morning or late at night
and this isn't easy for passengers. Also, there are no ferries at the weekends to most islands.

What can we do?

Another problem with our ferries
price of tickets. The cost of return tickets is too high. For
is the
some journeys the cost of return ferry tickets is the same as the cost of a flight to the same island.

How can we get to the islands?

The ferries to our islands can become more popular
change the
we change if a
few things. Firstly, we can
times of ferries and make sure that some leave during the day. Also, we can have
special prices for groups of people and make return tickets cheaper. | think these
changes will make the ferries more popular.
