WW web site has it departing on the TURANDOT Saturday the 18th which puts it in NYC the 30th. Do Northeast US cars get prepped in NY, or do they all go to North Carolina? Info would help, I can almost smell it

I'm on the same ship. I checked further on the WW site and arrival date is now 7/1/05 in NYC.

drfd18, I posted a response on the previous thread we were on so you might see this as a duplicate.

Thanks Frank, I still can't find the ship on any charts. I did find the Mignon which left 3 days before, she's just off Canada.

I couldn't fing her on the sailwx site yet. Maybe they don't report until they're in open water.

Hey drfd, hope all is well. Have you heard anything yet. I just got back from a week in the Southern Carribean and am trying to catch up on things. I flew into Newark Airport on 7/3 and as we flew over the shipping docks I see a WW vessel. Needless to say that put a big on my face.

800 # says I'm still waiting for a boat!?
Owners Circle says I'm at the Preparation Center
Go figure.
I'll be calling the dealer today.

BMW really needs to get it together as far as tracking. The 2 weeks ago 800# says I'm En Route, today it says Awaiting A Shipping Vessel. Owners site says its En Route. WW website says it was Discharged (unloaded?) in NY on 7/2. I put a call in to the dealer yesterday. So far no word yet.
