The Steam Packet Company has said that two of its Heysham crossings on Wednesday, October 5, may not go ahead.

Ben-my-Chree’s 8.45am crossing from Douglas to Heysham and the return journey at 2.15pm are in danger of being delayed or cancelled due to ‘adverse weather forecasts’.

The Steam Packet said: ‘In order to give this sailing every chance of going ahead, a final decision will be made by 7am on Wednesday.’

There is no disruption to Wednesday’s 2.15 am crossing to Douglas or the crossing from Douglas to Heysham, leaving at 7.45pm.
