NORTHLINK has confirmed that all passenger and freight sailings to and from Shetland today (Thursday) have been cancelled due to the weather.

Sailings on Friday are also under review with a “high probability of disruption”.

It comes after Wednesday’s sailings were called off due to the windy weather.
