rover, Thanks, that's why I never saw it. Never got a positive hit on the WW site.

No way! We might have to storm the harbor to set Al-Azrak Sultan (Blue Emperor) free. Don't worry we got you back.

Thanks for the welcome. I think the bonnet stripes is all that they need to do. So hopefully soon I will be back in a Cooper!

rover and gforce, Maybe we made it on one of the K-line ships. Hope springs eternal! I gotta admit, I'm jealous of you Courage and Toronto guys/girls.

rover, Also saw you can use the booking # you got for your first car and put it into the other likes like K-line or NYK line.

Is anybody's car listed as IN ROUTE on the Mini OL site? I know they are behind, but it seems like it should have changed by now.

According to the WW site, my first car left Southampton on 6/11 on MAERSK WIND but OL still shows it as "awaiting transport."

Guys, Strange doings! Just went to OL for grins and I'm in transit. Nothing from WW, so I'm either on another carrier or the VIN I've got (from the OL) is incorrect. Maybe I'm actually on the Maersk Wind afterall. Or not. I'm confused, but hoping I'm sharing the boat with you all.

Dog, Great. The Maersk Wind is skirting the Sargasso Sea, still N of the 30th parallel.
