I'm On The Franconia, Anyone Else?

I just found out today that my coupe is on the Franconia. CA didn't tell me what line that is...? It is due in Charleston on the 20th so I'm only a day behind the Integrity which is good news. Anyone else sailing with me.

I'm on the same ship as you. I just got word today that my car left on the Franconia yesterday. Its a Kline ship...

Hopefully we will be able to track it, but i'm not sure if you can track kline ships.

I too just found out that I'm on the same boat. I have been waiting for a boat since the 26th so I'm glad the day is finally here.

Wow, seems like there aren't too many people on this ship for whatever reason.

We're "special". Other than checking the Southampton ship log & Charleston schedules it has been a bear to track Franconia. I did see where it was underway from Southampton at about 2pm their time yesterday and is scheduled to dock at 10am in Charleston on the 20th. That is all I know now.

Well for the few of us that are on the Franconia I am sad to report that it is now showing arrival in Charleston on the 21st (according to the Port Of Charleston schedule). I know one day isn't that big of a deal. Hopefully the captain will flog that thing and beat Integrity. They are also showing arrival on the 21st ( 2 days late for them ) It's going to be a pile-up at the docks. I'm still praying that I'll have my baby by the 29th or 30th.

Thanks for the update. My CA called me the other day and told me that the ship was now scheduled to arrive on the 21st, but he said that the port usually has a one day turnaround from the time they receive the car to when its loaded on a truck. He is planning for a May 27th delivery. :rocks: I know that things change, but I don't think that you taking delivery by the 30th is too far off though.

That was the first thing I checked this morning. Now we just have to hope the VPC isn't backed up!

The day is getting close.
