The arrival date I have is for the Maersk Wind. Hm... I wonder if maybe nothing has been updated. It would be odd that the Maersk Wind and Talia would be arriving in the same port within a week of each other. Hm... I wonder if mine is on there.

ah!!! I had a feeling it may have been on NYK line, so I did search before you posted the above but still couldn't find it. http://www2.nykline.com/home/index.html

I don't think it's NYK. Could be something in the BMW system that labels all of them that way.

Does anyone know if there are any additional phone messages beyond "being transported to the port of exit", or is it a CA only thing after that? My car's been stuck in that status for 4 days now...

Once it gets to the port it says that your car is at the port waiting for a shipment vessel, no information is available at this time.

Oh well... it seems like the best I can hope for is that the car's at the port and the status just hasn't been updated. I can't imagine it would take 4 days to get from the factory to the port. I've still got 2 more days before the Wind leaves port...

I called the 800's number today and found out my car has finished production and is on its way to port for shipment. I highly doubted I will make it onto the Maersk...hopeful though

Mine finally got there on day 4. I can't imagine that's a typical transit time to port -- I've always heard 1-2d, so it might make it just in time to make it up the ramp before the ship leaves

I just checked the location of the Maersk Wind, It's been in the same position for about a week now. Looks like it just moved in position to the dock where they load the cars.

Yeah, scheduled to dock today. I wonder how long the queue is at the port vs. the ship's capacity? Yours has been there for a loooong while, so I'm sure it'll make it on. Reddemon73 and I just got there (if his is there), so we might be at the back of the line.

Where are you seeing the Maersk Wind's position? I see its status as in port here: http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/por...px?port_id=174

EDIT:
Did a little more digging and found the Maersk Wind's position and track: http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/def...010:51:26%20PM
And hopefully our cars are in this shot (or already loaded):http://www.blg.de/en/blg-logistics/s...am-automobile/

Yeah I hope so. Likely it should be. CKSVs car is already on a vessel eta to Port Hueneme on 03/03. Mine arrived at the port a day after his, so it has to be on the Maersk Wind. What part of California are you from?

I'm in Orange County... hoping to move to your neck of the woods one day...

I think I'm wearing out my CA, pestering him for updates.

Looks like the Wind left port today... no record of my VIN as cargo ID on the WW website though... it looks like my car either didn't make it on, or it hasn't updated yet. I hope it's the latter...

Cool! I hope I"m on it. Time to contact your CA. I will do the same right now!

how do you track/trace to see if your VIN is traceable? You just enter it in the "cargo ID" portion in the WW website? How does it know which ship it's on? When you enter your VIN, it searches all of WW's vessels?

Apparently so. Go to the WW website, track and trace, enter the VIN as cargo ID... at least that's what I've read. I'll ask my CA anyway though, as my car still hasn't shown up on there.

Wow, that's crazy. If yours didn't make it on, I'm pretty sure mine didn't either. Maybe it just needs a little more time to update.

That's what I'm hoping! After all, when you checked it did just leave.

My CA doesn't have any info on the Maersk Wind either. I'll try not to freak out until tomorrow morning Worst case, even if it didn't make it onto the Wind, there might be a ship in the interim between the Wind and the Don Juan (since the Talia wasn't listed on WW's schedule and left last week).

Yeah, you are probably right. I just got off the phone with the 800# people and they said their system is updated within 24 hrs. You do have a point re: the Talia that left btwn the Don Juan and Wind. I looked at a few posts ahead of this one to see when CKSV get his update and it looks like the departure of the Talia was on 02/05 and CKSV gave us his update from his CA on 02/07. Hopefully, we're on it! At least me... kidding!
