That ship (City of Rotterdam) used to serve the Emden/Tyne route with City of Rome and City of Paris. Maybe they've shuffled the ships around?

Notification usually happens on the morning after the event. That event being the offloading of the car, not necessarily the day of docking (if docking/offloading don't take place the same day.

The Glovis Crown docked in Emden on the 19th but I have received no tracker update.
That same ship has since left Emden.

Just spoken to my dealer. Car has arrived in the UK and is waiting to get on a transporter. He seems to think it will only be a matter of days until it arrives at the dealership. If not this weekend then definitely the weekend after. Almost there...

Mine was on the Glovis Spring.

Hopefully everyone else who is waiting gets some news soon. :)

Should probably add that the tracker still hasn't updated. Think we all know it isn't very accurate at this point anyway.

Malacca back on route to Emden presumably to pick up another load bound for Sheerness.
That's been its back and forth route for some time now.

The tracker is basically useless. My car has been at Tyne since Saturday and I'm still on 5b.

My dealer has emailed me this morning saying car transport was ordered yesterday so anyone else who's car went to Tyne should be with them soon.
