So beautiful (I'm not normally this sentimental!)

 

Looks like Liberty'll be staying the night too - leaves at 0:30:00

 

Yep, saw that... she's pushed a few times from 2200 to 2330 to 2359 to now 0030... UNDINE stays at 1600 though. It's all good, I was originally scheduled on aboat that doesn't leave until next month

 

This looks bad por moi...


Undine is scheduled to leave (left??) at 1800 and it's now 1818. Some cars show now as 'loaded' but not mine or any of the other 'standbys'.
Hope springs eternal, but may set with the sun.

Did any of you make 'Loaded' status?

 

I have not made Loaded status - but the ship has not yet left, and VTS radar shows it as still docked - perhaps good or bad, depending on how you look at it.

The table @ the VTS website is dynamically generated, and is probably NOT accurate.

-> Scratch it out ->>> The Undine is being pulled away!

 

What I meant to say about the table not being accurate, is that it probably is something like this...

Scheduled departure time is listed as an estimate, at 18:00:00. The software compares this estimated leaving time, and does not display it if is less than the time NOW().

 

If you check the booking # out, you will find only a handful actually made loaded status - I think their system might be delayed.

 

Yah, here's hoping. Were you listed with an asterisk (waitlisted) or cleared. It seems all the non-waitlisted are set to 'loaded'.

Urgggg

 

Scratch that... a number of non-waitlisted also show not loaded... waiting some more while watching UNDINE depart.

 

I was not waitlisted. Also, I'm watching the radar, to make sure we are actually watching the Undine depart! It changed from yellow to green -> which I think indicates berthed/moving.

 

She is no longer listed on the Departures table, so she has definitely left her berth.

Which radar are you observing? I can not see her on:
http://www.southamptonvts.co.uk/radcap.asp

 

I see her now in the far upper-left quadrant. Her name tag was off-screen.


Do you have a different radar site?

 

uhh, I think I wrote that one wrong, it might be the other way around. Either way, it's on it's way,a nd that was our ship!

If you get your loading time, list it here and I'll post the jpg - I may not get to the quicktime file for a few days. For your scrapbook .

 

Kay-O. I took a few shot (about 20) along the way, but the movie file would be brilliant! Hope I get a loading time and not a new ship

 

If you get a new ship, I'll send instructions on how to do the screen grabs (assuming you have a mac running Tiger...), assuming the new ship is at berth 43 (or Ocean Dock). Then again, I don't think MOST people put this much, uh, effort into their new car, though the MINI might be different.

Oh, and... I'm going to make a wallet sized print of the ship at the time my MINI was loaded (assuming it is on the Undine!), and show it whenever my friend talks about my enthusiasm for the MINI.

and I've been doing work work about 12hrs straight (got 5 hrs sleep), keeps my mind off the MINI and will help with the payments...

 

No - just historical data : )

 

Mine went to wait list status....ASK MINI says it shipped.

 

I'm still just booked, but the OL website says En Route. This is odd, as the website has been two days behind.

It means one of two things -

1) my MINI left on an earlier ship (possible, but not likely)

2) The world is coming to an end as the MINI OL site is up to date with ASK MINI

I really hope it left on the Undine - I even printed out a wallet sized pic of the ship leaving to show a coworker at a party I went to earlier tonight : )

 

Yah, and mine doesn't show loaded yet either, but still says it's on the Undine booking. ASK MINI (automated) shows it at the port as does the Owners Lounge. Sooner or later something has to catch-up with reality and then we'll know. <shrug> Probably tomorrow.

 

My info's still not updated, still Booked. But here is a fun activity! The Undine finally showed up (probably was their first weather report):

And what's nice about it, is that it lets you look at the ships past history, so you can see where in time the ship was last.

 

Hmmm. There are only 100 MINI's listed on the WW website, and mine is not one of them - it doesn't even recognize my VIN!!!! I know it won't recognize my VIN if I am not listed under the Undine's booking number, but still, a bit nerve wracking.

Anyone else like this?

 

My VIN number isn't being recognized either. I don't have the booking number with me to check. What was the number and I'll check and see if Bean shows in the list.

 

Same thing here. Mine was recognized until about an hour ago, but now I have the same symptom you do. Apparently my pride and joy has disappeared!

Matt

 

I love wild speculation!

How about this: their computer crashed, and they have to verify each MINI individually.

 

My VIN is still recognized, but sadly I am now on the AIDA leaving AUGUST 4th

There is a new booking number for this voyage and appears to have many of the cars that ...as the thread said... 'Missed the boat'.

FREEDOM leaves in 3 days, so perhaps I (we) will get lucky and make this ship, but at this point I've set me expectations for Chartleston Port arrival on the 16th...
