sassermaet Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 More than likely, I reckon. I have a flatmate at uni who was brought up in Lewis. The Stornoway-Ullapool ferry is only a 3-hour journey while the Aberdeen-Orkney-Shetland one is 12 hours, or 14 and a half if it's stopping in Orkney. Since the ferry journey is so long they won't get rid of the fares - at least not completely. Most likely just reduce them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
