'Technical issue' stops Heysham sailings for second day

Steam Packet Company cancel Ben-my-Chree trips

The Steam Packet Company has cancelled part of today's Ben-my-Chree sailings to and from Heysham, due to 'technical issues'.

It's the second day in a row sailings have been cancelled for this reason.

The ferry was due out this morning, to arrive back in Douglas at 6pm.

It's thought tonight's 8pm sailing to Heysham will go ahead unaffected.

Anyone who wants to make alternative arrangements is asked to call the reservations team on 661661.

Meanwhile, today's Manannan trips to Liverpool are expected to continue as normal.
