If their competition is just trucking along, and Interislander is breaking down and running into things all the time, I'd go with the option that will actually get me across the strait reliably. The only reason Interislander isn't losing business is because Bluebridge are only slightly better.

I think the vast majority of people will be looking at two things:

  1. Which is cheaper
  2. Which is scheduled at a time that suits them

I'd guess very few people look further than those two things.
