For those who are interested, the Trianon should be docked at Southampton within the hour. If it wasn't at night, you would be able to see it on the webcam.

Sorry you guys aren't aboard/booked yet (or WW site is showing it wrong) either way I know how frustrating it is - being one of those obsessed wackos haha.

I was in meetings all day and when I got home and checked the WW site, COURAGE is now 2 days later in Charleston than shown this morning - 3/25!

I am looking on the bright side: if that storm is the reason why getting loaded and shipped is taking longer, it is a lot better than having our cars seriously damaged in a storm while being shipped, like those BMWs earlier this year. Also, as it seems the lower interest rates are just starting to hit some of the banks & credit unions I have access to, the longer I wait to apply for the loan the better.

k3nt -

Actually i'm not sure which happened first. I didn't know about the website to get my booking number until after the Manon was nearly to New York shores. So, i'm not sure which happened first. Sorry i cant be of much help.

OK, for all of us awaiting the Trianon I believe we should be aboard by tomorrow. Checking the WW route for our ship shows that it is scheduled to port in New York on 3/21 then depart to Port Hueneme , CA on 4/04. So it looks like a fairly long wait still!!
So even though we get aboard we are still looking at 4 weeks before it gets to our respective dealers. This bit of reality is bringing me down!!
The only thing keeping me going is remembering the test drive and the feeling I had driving that car!! YEAH!!

Hang in there Clubbers!!!!

ok... well I was received at the terminal and I'm on the Trianon list.. but! I'm not loaded on to the vessel yet :( I hope they don't cap out and leave the rest behind. You would think that they would only have a list of how many could fit on the boat. Hopefully it just hasn't updated yet...

anyone know what the * is for by some booking #'s

Woo-hoo! My MA called and Watson is on the K-Line ship 'Caribbean Highway' due into Charleston on 3-20-08!!!!!! Don't know how long it'll take to get to San Antonio but at least I know he's on board a ship and on his way!

Anyone else with me?

k3nt that means ("In Waitlist Status") it says so on the WW site under Booking Number...look for your VIN, if has an asterisk by it it is currently on the Waitlist. The TRIANON will be departing Southampton @ 23:00 according to the Shipping Movements site.
