Around 60 passengers were stranded overnight on the Isle of Arran after the final CalMac sailing of the day on Saturday was cancelled due to thick fog. It was brought into service between Arran and Ardrossan to support the main ferry, MV Caledonian isles, which can carry up to 1000 passengers. CalMac staff just told us to write a complaint. In response to criticism on social media, CalMac tweeted: "The ferry took as many passengers as it possibly could, it was at full capacity. "Full capacity on MV Alfred was reached quickly, meaning that, unfortunately, several foot passengers could not get on the last ferry.
