This wait has been hard, but I think the passage wait will actually be harder for me because it will be 13-15 days and there is nothing to do but wait. If I'm on a K-line I might not even be able to track the ship as it moves across the pond.
Reminds me of the Apollo 13 movie when they were supposed to be out of communication for 3 minutes during reentry. I'll be in my own communication blackout for 2 weeks!

Also, I didn't get a vehicle inquiry thing from my MA and don't know my port loc. subsequently. I put in my vin in the 'cargo id' box on WW site and it states that no cargo found with that ID. Does that mean that my mini has not even been scheduled on a ship yet? I suppose I should just call my MA tomorrow! AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHH so many things!

But yeah, call your MA and they can tell you for sure

I just realized that next week, I'm going to be going to the NJ office two or three days. I'll taking the Holland Tunnel to the Turnpike, and driving right over the sprawling Newark NJ VDC those days... w/my Lil'Buddy locked up in prison there and no way to get'm out until he does his time!
...lol...
Also, my MA is skeptical the EPA clearing will come in and all the 2009 JCWs already there or soon arriving will be getting released on the 14th, because of them being 2009s.

I found my booking on the WW site a week ago. After Fidelio left it showed up on the Patriot's list immediately. Actually, although I'm a member of the THMMC I'm from SW VA and bought the car through Mini of Sterling in northern VA. Good luck on finding your car's booking!

If I'm correct (and I really hope I am not) then the next ship doesn't leave until July 17!!! OMG!!!
I've typed my VIN into the WW site so often I have it memorized!

I was wishing I was on the east coast since it only takes 10 days but at least I know I am on a ship and heading over. Hopefully you all made the ships. But then again even if you catch the 17th ship I still think you will be on US soil before us West Coasters, we don't hit the port until the 29th.

I'm still not on the ww so maybe on the k-line. Called my MA and he hasn't gotten back with me yet. just ordered the decal for my sunroof from cooperflags. I thought about it and read on the forums here, and decided to get one. I hope it fits my clubman sunroof....???
I'll try to call my MA again tomorrow. Just hope I'm on A Ship!
gotta call ask mini again!

If I didn't get on the K-line yesterday (11th) then the next K-line is on the 20th!!!!
I hope Tom, my Awesome MA, has some awesome news for me tomorrow! I so hope so! I just hope that ask mini is behind and is wrong! Ask mini states I'm still waiting to board a ship. All I can do is wait, but it seems like all I've been doing is waiting!
One good thing, is that I'm in great waiting company! We have all been waiting together and its nice to know that others are waiting just as impatiently as I am!
Thanks guys!

Hey TEX Susbo!
I'm with you I also memorized my vin - I even tried to figure out what future use that could be. Just imagine being able to rattle off your vin.....the cops might get a kick out of it.....how about the insurance co....?
Since you're in tx you'd understand this- I mentioned Bertha to askmini and they had no idea if that would mess the shipping up. Let's hope not!
Let's just hope we all get on ships that make it across the pond. I agree with the previoud post that said that we are in great company waiting!!!
Nice to know we're not alone

Hey all,
So this is my first post. I have a laser blue Clubman S sitting at the dock waiting to board a ship as well. I'm in Houston and my baby was completed on July 8th. For those who have actually made it aboard a ship, how long was it from your completion date to getting on the ship? Anyone know how to figure out which port on the US side it will land?
Thanks,
David

Welcome David. Did you receive a copy of your Vehicle Inquiry Report when you placed your order? That will let you know which VDC you are bound for. From what I've noticed though, it looks like the majority of Texas vehicles are going through the Charleston, SC port.
Stopped by Momentum MINI today to ask my MA some questions. He checked the status of my vehicle again while I was there, still sitting at the dock.

My Clubman sat at the dock from June 25 to July 5 -- 10 days.
