These steamship fares might seem low but compared to what a room at the Hotel Vancouver cost I expect they were actually pretty high for the times. I found "Special Class" rather interesting as I thought Steamships had First, Second, and Third Class.
Reel-to-reel films were a part of teaching until pretty late in my career and in my early teaching days before they had a fairly simple semi automatic film projector, you booked a student to thread and operate the film. Even with the newer projectors, teachers could still have a "student projectionist" do it for them.
