This letter is in regards to the ferry Lituya that runs between Metlakatla (Annette Bay) and Ketchikan on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. I know when they put in the road the plans were to make trips 3 to 4 times a day (7 days a week) so people from here can seek employment in Ketchikan and travel back to Metlakala at the end of the day.
My gripe the COST FOR TRAVELING ON the ferry for a 45 minutes short ride like for a 15 foot with driver was $70.00 round trip and now it is $112.00. We aren't the tourists WE are local people. So don't treat us like Tourists. Give us the price year around.
