There are generally 3 shipping cycles per season. June / July the first sailing arrives shortly after the sea ice disappears and it is safe for ships to sail. August, the same ships are used for the second sailing so they must make all their stops and return to port in Montreal. The second sailing is used to deliver to the destinations further north because of issues with weather early in the season and late in the season, these destinations will take priority on the second sailing. September / October, the same ships are used for the 3rd sailing so they must make all their deliveries and return to port. The schedule will change throughout the season. The ETA s quoted at the beginning of the season will be different by the end of the season, delays are inevitable. 3.
