The cover page does state that Butane is prohibited as per below. When carrying butane, you must declare any amount to our terminal staff upon arrival.
One cannister of Propane is currently allowed per standard vehicle up to 1.89L. We are revisiting the possibility of smaller cannisters for camping that are now readily sold at most hardware stores.
We look forward to welcoming you on board with us again soon.
