Terms

We ask that you not travel while sick. Riding with the Starline Collection means you may be subject to a temperature reading, and if a fever is detected or if you are experiencing symptoms related to COVID-19, you will be denied entry on to the bus. Please obey the driver if they ask you to move from a seat that must remain empty. Seats that must remain empty will be flagged as such.

These precautions are to keep you and our drivers safe. These rules are subject to change based on Washington State Department of Health guidelines.

Departure and arrival times are approximate and may be affected by construction, traffic, weather, acts of nature, pass or road closures, and other unforeseen events.
