No Ben-my-Chree sailing this morning

Fri, 02 Mar 2018

The Steam Packet Company has been forced to cancel more sailings as a result of the weather.

Storm Emma has prevented the Ben-my-Chree being able to operate its 8.45am crossing to Heysham and the return sailings to Douglas at 2.15pm.

Those booked to travel on the affected sailings are urged to contact the operator's reservations team on 661661 for further information.

The company expects tonight's services will operate as scheduled based on the current forecast.

Both of yesterday's Heysham and Douglas services were also cancelled because of the severe gale force winds.

The winds have also been causing problems at the airport as a number of services have already been cancelled this morning.

Those due to travel today can find the latest travel information on the Energy FM Info Centre.
