Serco NorthLink Ferries has cancelled sailings between the Northern Isles and Aberdeen due to adverse weather conditions.
The operator is hopeful of a sailing from Lerwick to Aberdeen on Sunday evening and from Aberdeen to Lerwick early on Monday (24 December) morning.
These services will not stop at Kirkwall. The Pentland Firth crossing has also been cancelled on Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning.
Stuart Garrett, managing director of Serco NorthLink Ferries, said: "High winds and waves mean it is not currently safe to sail but we are watching forecasts very closely and believe it may be possible to sail late tomorrow (Sunday). If we can operate services that would allow people to travel for Christmas we will.
"We understand these disruptions are extremely disappointing. Storms of this severity and length are very unusual and it has not been safe to sail since Thursday."
