Service updates

Monday 21 October - Tuesday 12 November

Due to loading requirements of MV Isle of Lewis, all foot passengers must check-in no later than 45 minutes before departure.

This is due to the failure of Stornoway Port Authority's Passenger Access System.

Once the car deck has been loaded, foot passenger access will be restricted.

We’ll keep customers informed should there be any further changes in connection to this route. If you’ve not already done so, download our app or follow our Twitter @CalMac_Updates so we can provide you with timely updates, with the latest information we have available.
