THE SOUTHBOUND NorthLink ferry sailing on Friday is set to leave two and a half hours early due to the weather.

The Hjaltland will leave Lerwick for Kirkwall and Aberdeen at 3pm instead of 5.30pm. The arrival into Aberdeen might be subject to a weather delay.

Friday’s southbound freight sailing is also under review.
