In 1936, Shaw, Savill and Albion announced plans to sell Ionic.[5] She was scrapped in 1936 or 1937 in Osaka, Japan. In 1939 the company introduced a new flagship, the {{GRT|27155}} {{ship|QSMV|Dominion Monarch}}. Her unique initials stood for "Quadruple Screw Motor Vessel". She was joined in 1955 by a new flagship, the {{GRT|20204}} {{SS|Southern Cross|1955|2}}. The {{GRT|24731}} {{SS|Northern Star|1962|2}} replaced Dominion Monarch in 1962. As the scheduled liner trade declined, the company sold Southern Cross in 1973 and withdrew Northern Star from service in 1975. As noted, in E. M. C. Barraclough's book Flags of the World ({{ISBN|978-0723220152}}), a variation of the flag used by the United Tribes of New Zealand was used by the Shaw, Savill & Albion Line as its company flag.
