Ok, the cargo tracking website says that my vehicle has been loaded:

LOADED ON VESSEL SOUTHAMPTON 16/11/2002 18:26
RECEIVED AT TERMINAL SOUTHAMPTON 12/11/2002 14:30
BOOKED SOUTHAMPTON 10/11/2002 17:48


The owner's lounge says awaiting transport and when I called ASK-MINI they ALSO said that it's still waiting for transport.

Whatchu think?

Please tell me it's on the boat.... did this happen to any of you?

You're ok... from experience when it comes to the shipping status of your car the WW web site is more up to date than MINI usa's web site. I'm 99% sure your car is on the boat!

It sounds like it's loaded on the vessel then. MINIUSA system updates aren't as frequent as the WW site (based on my experience).

BTW, could you edit this post and change the title so it's more descriptive of your actual concern (it's the icon next to reply at the bottom of your original post).

Hey Jim....don't worry....
It didn't change on MiniUSA for me to EnRoute until the boat was like 3 days out of New York.....
What the shipping website is telling you is most likely correct....it's like tracking a package on UPS. Your MINI was apparently loaded Saturday and probably shipped out already.


Never fear!

Oh thank the gods, after I called ASK-MINI I was flailing my arms and screaming like a chimpanze.

What IS it about this car?

Thanks to everyone who answered. (smooch!)

I'm in the same situation, but tend to believe the WW website. Are you on the Figaro too?

I'm on the Figaro too. It looks like our MINI's are over water now. The ship left on the 17th. I've got to get off this site, onto the Weather Channel to watch for storms in the shipping lanes. :smile:

Hey Jim
Glue them nails back on
You are not alone
Mine was loaded 55 min. after your's on the Haul Triton
Know about it Saturday 11.16
Call askmini today and its "Waiting for Transport"
Go figure
I'll bet their under way
And we'll be cornering for the holidays
Good Luck
