@johny221 here’s what the Houston port schedule shows for the Violet Ace. This can still change given that it’s still somewhat far in the future. In my case, the arrival date changed to 2 days earlier, but the departure date (which is the date that matters most imho) changed to 7 days earlier.

My estimate was also 06/26. In looking at previous VW shipping schedules that went to Jacksonville than Houston there was a 5 day gap between the dates. And Violet Ace is still tracking with satellite to be in Jacksonville 06/21.
On Marine Traffic the Violet Ace doesn't show up as an expected arrival yet in Houston. I wonder if that updates on their site once it sets sail from Jacksonville to Houston.
My TYD shows 07/03 for "arrival to local entry port". The dealer shows 07/07 on their system and a delivery to the dealer 07/12 on mine and theirs is 07/14. If it's running ahead I'm hoping the car updates and makes it to Omaha a week before those dates.
And no clue why the two systems don't match. They haven't for a few months. Weirdly mine has been more accurate and when I was supposed to hit production completion milestones it would update the next day to another delay vs their system that was a few days past mine.
Thanks for sharing. My car was supposed to be delivered January 13th so we are only 7 months delayed at this point!

It happened!!!!
Got a notification in the wee hours of this morning and checked TYD to find out my GTS made it on the Cassiopeia Leader headed to San Diego Now the ship tracking fun begins! Ship ID is 9182277.
For reference, my production was delayed 37 days and the wait at Emden to get on a ship took 2 weeks. Final delivery date was originally 6/5/23 and now shows 7/19/23.
Did anyone else’s 911 get on the Cassiopeia Leader heading to the West Coast?

something is definitely up. It’s just drifting in the current for several days now….. did it run out of gas or something? Definitely seems odd.
