My car status went to “in transit”, so maybe it was picked up by Cronus Leader at Zeebrugge.

Anyone else?

Blue Sky I am happy for you. At least one of us will have it. Did you reach out to Bmw Genius to get vessel details?

BlueSky… did your status change to “In Transit”? Mine did. I’m thinking it’s on the Helios Leader. Let me know! 😆

Are you a west coaster or an east coaster?
If you’re a west coaster, check your status this morning…

Something’s weird with Daisy Leader. She was right behind Helios Leader last night near Bremerhaven. Looked like that was her destination as of last night but this morning she was in Elden and is still there now.

Can you tell I was bored today? Lol

Vesselfinder said yesterday the destination was Emden, so I think all is good. Next port is Bremerhaven.

It was on the schedule 2 weeks ago cuz I had it as a possible ship. Now I can’t find it going to Port H. I see it going to Benecia, CA (big Naval base and Oil port in Bay Area - just shy of San Francisco).

I’d check with Genius again. Hope this helps. I’ve got some links if you need them to some schedules

That’s Emden Germany, not Elden (auto correct)

mygarage shows the status 195 "In Transit" however contacted to Bmw Genius for vessel details. The genius told me the car still at the port and has not been shipped yet. I am confused.

I suppose that could mean that your car has left the distribution center in Krefeld. I read somewhere that cars get held there until the ship is on its way, but often are in “at port” status.

Hopefully it’s just that things haven’t been updated yet. If it makes you feel better, my S.A. hasn’t confirmed mine is on Helios Leader or any info, for that matter. We could still both be in the same boat (no pun intended).

I’ve never called genius. Maybe I should, since my S.A. is not super reliable. I need to pull my laptop out too and do that thing that you all have been doing with the web page Deb bug thing to check what my real status is.

I haven’t seen that so far, two possible BMW carriers side by side!

Hope your car gets loaded.

So about Benicia…. I hadn’t ever been searching for that as a destination, my bad. Now that I think about it, I think I heard that cars arriving PH get loaded onto trucks (of course) but cars arriving at Benicia are driven to Bay Area dealerships and arrive with 40-50 miles on them.

Yeah. Closest ones are BMW Vallejo, and BMW Concord. My Daughter lives in Benicia. We get to go visit my 3 1/2 YO Granddaughter there in May. I'm renting a 5er just because I am used to it, and she has not seen "Papa's new car" yet. So I want to show her what it's like. (My Son-in law and Daughter as well. Lol. But who cares about them.)

My car is loaded to Chonus Leader and expected to arrive 04/07 to West Coast. Is there a way to track only one vessel? The website that I tried don't have any destination details and offer only monthly packages for multiple vessels.

Found out today that I am slated for Week 17 production. Maybe I’ll get it sometime in late May or June at the earliest.

It’s on Daisy Leader, which is currently about to pass between Cuba and Haiti (I subscribed for single vessel tracking for a month for $20). I was never able to find a schedule for this vessel, even though it has NYK painted on the side. I was told it arrives April 2, but I am not sure where.

Did anyone get a schedule for Daisy Leader before it sailed?
