News / Ferry weather warning
SERCO NorthLink has warned customers that services over the next few days may be affected by the weather.
Thursday night’s northbound sailing to Shetland may be delayed in arriving in Kirkwall by up to two hours, and it may arrive in Lerwick up to one hour late.
The southbound departure is currently under review and may leave Lerwick early.
Thursday’s freight sailings to and from Shetland are likely to be cancelled.
The freight boats on Friday are also under review and similarly have a high probability of cancellation.

Journalism comes at a price and because that price is not being paid in today’s rapidly changing media world, most publishers - national and local - struggle financially despite very healthy audience figures.
