Tracking Volans Leader (West Coast Bound)

I believe the next ship headed to the left coast is the Volans Leader. Is there anyone else waiting for a lift from Bremerhaven to Port Hueneme? My car finished production on 3/18 so I'm hoping to catch the Volans Leader. The Volans Leader is coming into Bremerhaven now.

It's ridiculous that I'm tracking the ships before they even arrive in Bremerhaven.

Man I finished on 3/25 and would love to make this ship too! Fingers crossed it gets there in time! Who tells you what ship you're on...BMWNA or your CA?

Disclaimer: Based on my limited tracking knowledge, I "think" this ship is headed to the West Coast. I'm going on the Bremerhaven shipping schedule which shows this ship as an NKY Line ship headed to Port Huemene.

Once you are on a ship your best bet is to ask your CA. Your CA can pull a vehicle inquiry report which will show what ship you are on. I'm not sure how quickly their system shows this, but I think fairly quickly.

You can also, in theory, enter your VIN number on the NKY Line site. You may need to get your VIN number from your CA.

Hopefully we both make this ship! I have a feeling I'm setting us up for disappointment, but it's fun to track anyhow. Now, I just need a real-time satellite feed.

My car finished production today according to the 800 number status. Hopefully I can get on this boat too. If so I might see my car first week of May.

Hoping my car makes this ship also. I've been at the port awaiting a shipping vessel for about 4 days now.

Docked next to an automobile loading dock. That seems like a good sign. Please tell me this vessel is loading BMW's.
