In addition to the scheduled operation between Cleveland and Buffalo the vessel made special cruises to Detroit and Chicago along with other ports on the Great Lakes. In an advertisement dated 12 June 1914, the cost to travel between Cleveland to Buffalo on "Seeandbee" was touted to be less than a railroad ticket and that any railroad ticket for travel between the two cities would be accepted. During August 1930 C &amp; B Transit issued a $10,000 challenge to prove that "Seeandbee" was the "fastest on the lakes" but the challenge was never accepted by the other steamship companies. For the 1933 Chicago World's Fair "Seeandbee" was scheduled to make a number of all-inclusive trips that summer. Prior to the start of the 1937 sailing season "Seeandbee" underwent refitting. A new large ballroom was constructed on the upper deck, stateroom space was converted into parlors, and new showers, baths and beauty parlors were added to the ship.
