Changes to Link's Carry-on Policy

There have been some changes to the Link’s carry-on policy. This is reflective of keeping a safe, comfortable and welcoming experience on board Link buses for all riders.

All personal items must be clean, not leaking, take up only one additional seat, and the guest must be able to board all items in one trip. Link Transit allows fixed route and paratransit riders to bring onto the vehicle the equivalent in size to either four (4) plastic grocery bags, two (2) paper grocery bags, or two (2) reusable grocery bags not to exceed roughly 16” x 10” x 13”, or one two (2) or four (4) wheeled  folding cart not to exceed 19 inches wide, 38 inches tall and 18” long (including wheels and handles), or one(1)  piece of luggage not exceeding 24”x17”x10” in size (airline carry-on), or one pair of skis/snow board/fishing poles (or like-sized recreational equipment).  Additionally, riders may bring a small personal item like a purse, computer, or briefcase. Riders may transport necessary medical equipment needed while traveling on the vehicle at no additional cost and in addition to the foregoing personal items.

For individuals who need a cart to transport items, Link has partnered with Catholic Charities to provide shopping carts that meet the dimensions of those allowed on Link vehicles. Carts may be obtained free of charge at Catholic Charities, located on the lower level at Columbia Station, 300 S. Columbia St. in Wenatchee. Entrance is on the south side of the building near the bottom of the outside stairs. Hours are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 7:30 – 11 a.m. and 3 – 5 p.m. They may be reached by phone at 509-421-5224.
