Anyone else booked on Fidelio? I need some company. Misery loves company. I'm only booked, the ship doesn't even arrive in Bremerhaven until 4/21. This is almost as painful as waiting in the reception area for my ED.

I dropped mine off on the 13th in Munich. I probably saw your car in the Harms lot since I was checking everyone else out during drop-off. Do you have pics?

Looks like Fidelio has officially left Bremerhaven. Next stop, Gothenburg, Sweden.

The way to know if you are on board for sure is to use your VIN as the cargo ID on this site:

http://schedule.2wglobal.com/AppTrac...trackType=Auto

If I give you my BOL number then it will point you to my car, not yours. Here is Fidelio's voyage number:

First, find out what boat your car is now scheduled for. Then, get that boat's voyage number and use it to check voyage details. Let me know if this helps.

Since you just recently hit the autobahn, what was your top speed?

Were you told about engine break-in during your ED pick-up?

I was told keep RPM below 4500 for the first 1500 miles so my top speed (on the A5) was 140mph.

I have to admit, I had just as much fun on the mountain twisties as on the autobahn.

BTW, your current car is better than my '02 Maxima and the wife's '03 Accord!

ok if you enter your BOL Nuber under Bil of lading search does it give you your car or all cars on the fidelio?

Maybe you can look into it and let me know.

Just checked. It only gives mine. Would probably be a bit of a privacy issue if it gave all cargo since it also lists the cargo ID (ie VIN) after you do the search. Are you having problems getting your VIN?

Yep, kept it below that threshold for the whole week. I topped off at 135 because I had to get off on ramp 300ft away.

My bro took on the mountain twisties and I caught a different route back thinking I was giong to hit some twisties too, but I was disappointed in the end because all I got was the Autobahn!!! Sucks... but I still had a blast... Cant wait till that boat docks... My dealer is 1.5 hours from the port... hope to have a pickup by 5/10 or 5/12...

That is the website I used. I just checked again to see if I screwed something up. I only get my car on the results. I don't think my car is the only one on the ship?

Has anyone else confirmed on the Fidelio?
