(Morristown, NJ)…Further to our announcement on October 15, 2018 regarding the implementation of a single loop covering North America West Coast to Australia & New Zealand, we would like to provide updated details on the phase out of the existing 2 string system and the first sailings of the single loop.

Our fortnightly PNW service will wind down with “Balao” v. 119 which will make discharge only calls at the ports of Vancouver, Seattle, and Oakland before phasing out of the service.

Vancouver exports will instead load to “Halifax Express” v. 837E on October 26 – 27 and tranship in Oakland onto “ANL Warrnambool” v. 812S.

Seattle exports will load to “ANL Walwa” v. 811s which will make an ad hoc port call in Seattle on October 29 – 30. Please see the following for updated schedule details:

*includes Vancouver loads from “Halifax Express” v. 837 E

Following the departure of “ANL Warrnambool” v. 812S, the single loop rotation will commence with “Melina” v. 814S. The ports of Seattle, Vancouver, and Adelaide will continue to be called on a fortnightly basis.

Please see rotation and sailing details for the first 2 sailings on the single loop:
