If you have a Mac, there have been reports of Macs being unable to connect to the WW site.

If you have a PC and are entering the last 7 digits of your VIN (e.g. TD11111) under "Track by... Auto", be aware that at times it takes a few minutes for the site to respond. At the best of times it takes about a minute, in worse situations it has taken at least 4 minutes or so.

I have a PC...and I'm doing what you say. Guess I'll have to try at home w/o a proxy server timing out the session. When I tried it 2 days ago, I received "not found" after the query. But someone said it was updated yesterday, so maybe??? I'll just have to try again Thanks!

Sincerely,

Anxiously waiting so I can figure out when to sell my Honda Accord...

Just checked again with the Southampton Daily Echo ... It appears the ship did NOT sail yesterday at 1700 GMT. It is listed under today's principal sailings at 1200 GMT.

In Port

Today's Principal Sailings:
Hyundai Fortune, container, 0630, 206; ANL Indonesia, container, 0930, 204; Hudson Leader, ro-ro, 1200, 34/5; Hual Tramper, 1400, 40; Oriana, 1700, 105; P&O Nedlloyd Drake, container, 1730, 207; Jackie Moon, general cargo, pm, 102/3.

You might want to check your status to ensure your MINI is still aboard... Fingers crossed...

I still didn't make this ship, but according to the roadfly site, the delayed the Hudson Leader overnight to get more cars on board, and should clear the MINIs through by the time they finish loading Don Juan tomorrow.. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

The good news is that about 335 of the 450 MINIs on my booking number are now listed as loaded, with the last load time being 11:42 GMT which is probably consistent with a 12:00 sailing. Looks to me like WW is being careful to keep up to date with their info. I'm really pretty impressed with their operation so far.

Well, it looks like I finally got loaded to the Hudson Leader! I wasn't loaded yesterday and I was really starting to get frustrated. Thanks for holding the ship for me, I hope you don't mind the slight delay...

PghArch, nice car choice. Maybe they didn't put your car on the Hudson Leader becuase they didn't want to get our cars mixed up No worries though, I'm sure you'll be following soon after.

Well, I was really hoping to make it onto the Hudson Leader like many of you (based on LIFO), but alas, I didn't make it. I am booked on the Tanabata, departing on 7 Aug and scheduled to port on 22 Aug...yay! Glad to know I'm not screwing a bunch of things up and can finally see my MINI!!!

[Terrence]

I am at a true loss for words .
I was so thrilled and shocked to see that they were still loading cars on the HUDSON LEADER today ,I almost fainted .
But as the day draws to an end seems i am left behind for yet another ship 51 people left behind and i happen to be one of them . And as of this moment I don't show booked for another ship. ( do scream now or later ? )

[bassplayer]

Terrence, Terribly sorry for you. Maybe you'll get on one within the next day or so that doesn't stop off in Nova Scotia, and cuts a day off the trip. The absolute best to you, and keep posting on here to give us updated status. I know exactly how you feel, and it ain't good.

[Pamlico]

Has anyone been able to get any tracking information on the Hudson Leader? The Call Sign appears to be H9JS, but nothing shows up on either the Oceanweather or Accuweather sites. Perhaps this ship doesn't transmit weather observations?

[capaz]

Nothing on Hudson Leader (H9JS)...

Don Juan (SGIX)is moving right along a day behind...

Weather looks good all the way!

[Terrence]

Ladies and Gentlemen , I am please to inform you that I have in fact been loaded on the DON JUAN. Thank you LORD !

The WW web site shows my MCS as loaded on 8/1/02. MINIUSA.com and MINIUSA Customer Service both have it status 193, Received at Terminal. I was expecting the MINIUSA.com to be pretty inaccurate, but what about Customer Service?

Anyone else experiencing this phenomenon?

I'm in the same boat as you (no pun intended). I'm assuming that the WW site is the more accurate as once the car is handed over to them I'd hope they'll know where it is.

[JimMini]

Yes Majormike, add me to this list of loaded on WW site and still "Awaiting Transport" at MINI USA.

Maybe they'll ctach up by the time we dock in NYC

[majormike]

Actually, as long as the MINI gets here, who cares what the internet says? Kinda edgy, though.
