Steam Packet sailings cancelled due to poor weather forecasts

Two crossings cancelled and the evening trip classified as 'at risk'

The Isle of Man Steam Packet Company has cancelled two sailings today (24 November) amid adverse weather forecasts.

The 9.45am outbound and 3.30pm return will no longer go ahead; passengers are being told to amend their bookings.

This evening's 9pm journey to Heysham remains 'at risk' with a final decision expected to be made by 7pm.

The Ronaldsway Met Office is forecasting sunny spells, but winds are expected to strengthen again, reaching gale force in some areas with gusts of around 50mph.

Yesterday, Storm Bert caused widespread disruption across the Island, including the cancellation of all sailings.
