Cancelled ferries at Cairnryan as Storm Eowyn approaches

Operation Overflow will be activated as of midnight tonight (Thursday, 23 January, 2025) due to a number of ferry sailings between Cairnryan and Northern Ireland having been cancelled throughout Friday, as we await the arrival of Storm Eowyn.

Those booked on to any of the affected sailings are advised not to travel to the area due to the impending red weather warning and long delays are expected. They should instead seek alternative travel options elsewhere. Please check with Stenaline and P&O Ferries as appropriate for updates on your sailing.

Freight drivers who must attend the area are advised to follow instructions from port operators and Police Scotland about accessing the Operation Overflow site while the cancellations are in place.
