SERVICES AND THEIR CANCELLATION

Please note that our services may be canceled due to high seas or poor visibility.
We make judgments based on a comprehensive analysis of several data points, including wave height, swell, wind strength and direction, and visibility.
If a storm warning, wave warning, or other warning is issued for Niigata Prefecture in the weather forecast, there is a possibility that our services may be canceled.
However, issuing such warnings is only a guide, and the presence or absence of weather warnings does not determine whether or not our services will be canceled.

Timing of our decision to cancel the services

The status of all car ferry services and the first Jetfoil service for the day will be available at midnight on the Operation Status page. The status of Jetfoil services other than the first one will be announced after 6:00 a.m.
The decision to cancel a service may be made one hour prior, depending on the weather and sea conditions of the day.
Also, depending on the situation, we may cancel a service the day before.
