NORTHLINK is warning some of its sailings are under review later this week amid forecasts for high winds.

The Hrossey could sail from Aberdeen four hours early tomorrow (Tuesday) afternoon, with the sailing currently under review.

She could leave for Lerwick at 3pm, instead of the usual 7pm sailing time.

The Hjaltland could also leave Lerwick on Tuesday earlier, at 5.30pm instead of 7pm. Her arrival into Aberdeen on Wednesday morning may also be delayed by an hour.

Tuesday’s freight sailing of the Helliar from Aberdeen to Lerwick is under review, with an update to follow later today (Monday).

All of Wednesday night’s passenger and freight sailings are currently under review, NorthLink added.
