I just checked 30 minutes ago. I wasn't even going to check today because I knew the ship wasn't even in Southampton yet. Hopefully yours will make this ship, or maybe you have even better luck and you made it on the K-Line ship that's already on it's way!

Found the Liberty - Near Antwerp, Belgium

Found it on AISLive.com. Wish there was a way to search for a ship, instead of just guessing and zooming in.

Although my car finished production on 1/26/08, it still says “Awaiting Transport” on the owner’s lounge. I have tried (countless # of times) to enter the 17 digit VIN number on the “Auto cargo” section of http://schedule.2wglobal.com/AppTracking/searchCargo.do?trackType=Auto . I just get “No tracking information is available for the Cargo ID you entered”.
I AM FRUSTRATED!!:impatient

Mine finished on 1/25/08 and I'm in the same boat (sorry for the pun). We just have to be patient!

I'm on AIDA too!

The 24th?! Really? That's a long cruise. People pay good money to go on a 3 week cruise.

How did you find out -- did your VIN show up on WW? Glad to see someone got on. Maybe the bottle neck will break now! Still nothing for me...

Good for you T&CMCSa! Still nothing comes up for me on WWL. Maybe tomorrow. I wish my MA would bother to return phone calls.

Yes, put the VIN in the Track by Auto search page on WW. Came up that it was booked on the Liberty leaving tomorrow.

Oh, believe me, I know how! I check WW about 65 times a day but, so far, nothing for me. I was just wondering if your MA called you before it showed up in WW or if you found out yourself...

I guess I am losing faith that I will ever get past the search box screen! There are a number of other folks whose vehicles completed production within a few days of mine who have also been waiting at port for more than a week, so I guess I'm really not alone. I've looked at all WW and K-line ship schedules and we all have several opportunities to get out in the next few days. Patience, patience...

I'm in the same boat, well in this case that wouldn't be a boat at all I suppose. Every time I check I hope the outcome will be different but, alas, each time is met with disappointment. As you say patience . . .

I’m not so sure that Oliver, Connor and Callum from the factory aren’t out pub crawling in our cars!

Day 18 at the port for us. :( How can nobody in the MINI chain of contacts we have (OL, askmini, MA) not know if some cars are on a ship or not. Seems pointless to have the OL website and stuff if it's not being updated. Or maybe we really are still at the port. This is becoming ridiculous.... :(

08DSMCS, the booking number is GBSOU601799.

Attached is an image of the Liberty at the port from AISLive.com. For those of you on AIDA, that ship is at the port as well.
