Southern Star Rio Bravo 322S/324N Napier port omission

Due to the ongoing impact of current weather conditions and high swells to shipping movements at Napier port, we regret to advise that RIO BRAVO 322S/324N will omit Napier to mitigate any further disruption to scheduling and to avoid a potential slide on the service.

We’re pleased to advise that the following contingency routing has been secured for affected bookings:

• Napier exports will update to GSL KITHIRA 325N with cargo routing via Far East Asia (FEA) ports or via Tauranga through to connecting services. Your local Customer Experience representative will be in contact shortly to assist with the applicable routing for your shipment/s.
• Napier imports ex-Tauranga will continue to load RIO BRAVO 324N and will discharge in Lyttelton and load GSL SYROS 327N for delivery to Napier.
• Napier imports ex-South-East Asia hubs / ex-Sydney on RIO BRAVO 322S/324N will discharge at Lyttelton and load GSL SYROS 327N for delivery to Napier.

We are working with the respective ports to update the forward schedule along with cut-off’s, which will be published on their respective websites.

We thank you in advance for your understanding, along with your continued support in trusting Maersk as your supply chain partner.
