We wish to advise that due to delays arising from the DP World Industrial Action, the Sydney berth window for RIO BRAVO 351S/402N has been heavily impacted.

To mitigate any further impact to the schedule and to avoid a slide on the Southern Star service, RIO BRAVO 351S/402N will perform a position swap with SFL MAUI 352S/403N from Tauranga onwards, with RIO BRAVO 351S/402N calling Sydney in the previous position of SFL MAUI 352S/403N.

SFL MAUI 352S/403N will now omit Sydney to mitigate any further impact to scheduling.

There will also be a voyage number swap for RIO BRAVO 402N/406S and SFL MAUI 403N/407S from the northbound voyages onwards, to become RIO BRAVO 403N/407S and SFL MAUI 402N/406S and so on.

The revised schedule* is expected to be as follows:
