Tonight’s (Monday) southbound NorthLink sailing will depart almost five hours later due to forecasted adverse weather.
NorthLink said the Hjaltland would now sail from Lerwick at 11pm – instead of the scheduled 5.30pm.
It is expected to arrive in Kirkwall at 6am tomorrow morning (Tuesday, 27th December), before reaching Aberdeen between 1 and 2pm.
That could then have a knock-on effect on the Hjaltland‘s return sailing tomorrow night.
NorthLink said that the Hjaltland would leave Aberdeen as close as possible to 5pm tomorrow – but that there are likely to be delays in her arrival into Kirkwall and Lerwick afterwards.
