Chao Phraya Express Boat announced on August 14 that it will adjust service schedules for Monday, August 17, 2025, starting from noon due to a ceremonial waterway procession drill. The Port Authority has issued an order prohibiting all vessel traffic between Krung Thon Bridge (Sang Hi) and Phra Phut Bridge during this period.

Morning services from 6:00 a.m. to noon will operate normally, including orange-flag boats from Nonthaburi (6:00–7:45 a.m.) and Wat Ratchasingh (6:15–7:40 a.m.), yellow-flag boats from Nonthaburi (6:00–8:15 a.m.), green-yellow-flag boats from Pak Kret (6:00–7:50 a.m.), and red-flag boats from Nonthaburi (6:50, 7:10, and 7:25 a.m.).

From noon onwards, service modifications will apply across all routes. The yellow-flag midday boat will run from Nonthaburi to Payap and Wat Ratchasingh to Ratchawong (12:00–4:00 p.m.), followed by orange-flag service (4:00–6:30 p.m.). The green-yellow-flag boat will serve Payap–Pak Kret (4:40–6:20 p.m.), and the yellow-flag boat will operate the Sathorn–Nonthaburi route at 7:05 p.m.). Tourist boats on the Sunrise–Sathorn route and cross-river ferries at Phra Nang, Maha Nag, and Chiang piers will suspend service from noon onwards. The company urges passengers to plan ahead and allow extra time. Updated schedules for August 20 and 27 will be announced separately via the Chao Phraya Express Boat Facebook page and LINE Official Account @cpxcare.
