Travel Updates
There are multiple travel updates for our services.
  • PREBOOKING ADVISEMENT – ALL SERVICES
    18/04/2024 10:45

    We would like to remind customers that it is advisable to book all journeys even if you are travelling as foot passengers without vehicles.

    We have recently noticed a large influx of foot passengers on our services. Prebooking avoids disappointment and ensures customers are guaranteed their space onboard.

    This is particularly important as we move into our busiest time of year.

    You can make bookings online - https://www.orkneyferries.co.uk/, or you can phone any of our offices to make your bookings - Orkney Ferries | Contact Us.
