NORTHLINK has warned both its north and southbound sailings on Sunday night are under review.

The ferry operator said there was a “possibility of cancellation” for both the Hrossey and Hjaltland journeys.

Hjaltland is due to leave Aberdeen at 5pm for Kirkwall and Lerwick, while Hrossey is scheduled to sail from Lerwick at 7pm straight to Aberdeen.

NorthLink said a further update would follow on Sunday morning.
