More disruption to sailings

Steam Packet sailings have been cancelled again with more gale force winds on the way later today.

Tonight’s 7.45pm sailing to Heysham and the return at 2.15am tomorrow are both affected.

The company is warning of further possible disruption to tomorrow morning’s 8.45 crossing to Heysham and the afternoon return.

A further announcement about these sailings will be made at 7.00am tomorrow.

As a result of the disruption, newspapers will be around three hours late arriving in shops tomorrow.
