Question Average Time Factory To On Ship??

While i know this is hard to average thought it would be interesting to get the various user times/days from production completion to actually being put on a ship......I realize it is first transported from the factory to Bremerhaven Port(via rail??)

8 days for me. I think that's on the long end though. The thing is, if you just miss a ship, you automatically get bumped back a few days. I think the variance of people's individual experiences will be pretty high.

Timing really is everything..Thanks for responding....The issue appears to be the transport time to the pier and then how many cars are ahead once at the pier...The ship transit time is a set variable....13-17 days depending on the ship....

5 days for me, but I think that was on the quick side. In any event, it should be around a week.

Good luck!
