That a fantastic tactic, actually.

    So does that mean no Ferry trips or the trips became free?

    Ferry trips yes

    Collecting fares no

    Job action with no downside for the public and big downside for company. Upkeep and maintenance still cost money with nothing coming in except people with monthly passes.

    The company gets a very good incentive to negotiate in good faith because the longer they run without income the harder their pocketbook gets hit.
