NORTHLINK has warned that Friday night’s southbound sailing from Lerwick to Kirkwall and Aberdeen may be cancelled due to the weather.

If this sailing is cancelled it is anticipated that there would be an unscheduled Saturday departure instead, with the Kirkwall call under review.

NorthLink is running a limited timetable at the moment due to one of the passenger vessels being in dry dock.

All of Friday’s freight sailings are under review and may be cancelled.
