Description
[b]About NorthLink Ferries[/b] Serco NorthLink Ferries have operated the Northern Isles ferry service since July 2012, sailing from Aberdeen to Orkney and Shetland as well as the Pentland Firth route. Each evening the MV Hrossey and Hjaltland alternate travelling from Aberdeen and Shetland with regular stops in Orkney. The MV Hamnavoe sails from Scrabster in Caithness to Stromness in Orkney throughout the day. MV Hildasay and Helliar are our two dedicated freight vessels with regular timetabled freight services to both Orkney and Shetland. For islanders and visitors alike, NorthLink Ferries provide a welcome and reliable service, a vital link to and from mainland Scotland. NorthLink’s modern passenger vessels are equipped to cater for everyone, and travellers can expect a service that is testament to the islands’ warmth and friendliness. MV Hjaltland, MV Hrossey and MV Hamnavoe have a range of en-suite cabins available, including pet-friendly cabins, which give passengers the opportunity to keep their furry friend close by during their sailing, Additionally, all passenger vessels have comfortable lounges, a shop, Changing Places facilities, and a restaurant serving a menu featuring locally sourced produce. Travelling on MV Hamnavoe offers a unique experience to see the iconic Old Man of Hoy. This is the only ferry to Orkney which sails past this impressive and iconic red sandstone sea stack. During the Covid-19 pandemic NorthLink continue to provide the lifeline service to the Northern Isles and ensure that we adhere to all relevant Scottish Government and NHS Scotland guidance. Although passenger volumes have understandably fallen throughout the pandemic our freight volumes continue to be strong. This is testament to the role we play in the islands supply chain, transporting the full range of goods vital to the economic wellbeing of our island communities. We view ourselves as an integral member of our local communities and continue to work daily with stakeholders in all aspects of the operation. This community integration, as well as support of the local economy is, undoubtedly, important to us. We are proud to purchase over 90% of products for our passengers to enjoy on board from suppliers based within 50 miles of our operating ports. Whilst supporting the local economy this reduces the distances our deliveries have to travel, and with it our environmental impact. NorthLink Ferries, which has offices in Aberdeen, Kirkwall, Lerwick, Stromness and Scrabster, has been awarded Investors in People Gold Award on both ship and shore, further ensuring local employment opportunities for all.
