Your cut-out-and-keep guide to the Craignure-Oban winter timetable.
Confused by CalMac’s timetables and want to easily see which applies when? We’ve been busy with a selection of highlighters. (Available as a PDF at the bottom)
THANK YOU ! A very elegant solution to a complicated plan. Let’s hope Calmac’s maintenance plan allows them to stick to it. Very helpful of you – thanks very much again 👍.
Thank you for doing this! Just wondering if for the Frisa only timetable, 19 – 22 October , it’s the Summer timetable minus IOMull sailings? Sorry if that’s obvious!
Hello Joe,
I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and the IOMFC for all your valuable work on our behalf. Colin and I were in on the start of this with you so many years ago but you have worked relentlessly to improve both the service and the communication lines with Calmac. I remember the time when we tried to get passenger figures for the now abandoned service from Tobermory to Tiree and we were just told that (and I probably misquote here) ‘Caledonian MacBrayne is updating the computer system and we cannot give you these figures’.
They were also adamant, at the time, that they did NOT provide a ‘lifeline service’! How things change! It feels, to me, like we take one step forward and two steps back.
Nevertheless, you are our voice for what is undoubtedly a ‘lifeline service’ despite what Caledonian MacBrayne told us. Thank you again. Yours aye, Anne Cleave
How can I print it?

Hi Anna. Its almost the same as the winter Frisa-only TT, with some minor differences. Can be seen here: https://www.calmac.co.uk/summer-timetables/oban-craignure#19%20October%20-%2022%20October%202023

THANK YOU ANNE!! Maybe one day we’ll get that link to Coll and Tiree back!
