Additional passenger ferry sailings

An additional week-day passenger service will operate between Sanday, Stronsay, Eday and Kirkwall during the annual winter refit timetable. 

The MV Nordic Sea will provide the additional foot passenger capacity from Monday 6 January 2025 until Friday 7 March 2025, subject to weather conditions. Additional sailings will operate from Mondays through to Fridays. 

The MV Nordic Sea, which can carry up to 47 passengers, fills a gap during periods of refit and adds capacity for services under increased demand during the summer months.  

As the relief boat, the Nordic Sea may be required to cover any breakdowns within the fleet. Service provision will therefore be subject to availability.
