No 'priority' or preference. The sheep are part of the same herd and it's all about speed. It's a wonder how many more do not get damaged on transport. this is inside the ship during the 991 Series loading:

This is a 48 minute video loading a 8500 car RORO in Germany. Lots of BMW's and high and heavy trucks. Adjust the playback speed up to 1.25 or 1.50 X's to save a little time. Going through the panama canal as well.

@991.1 Guy Yeah me too. However, it would be cost prohibitive as well as time prohibitive to ship every car inside an enclosed bubble. What P.AG should do is provide an option if you want your car shipped with the 'Herd' or if you want a dedicated container for an additional $3500 which is what it costs.

So, did anyone else that is currently on Siem Aristotle see any updates or changes to their TYD or the tracking app you're using?

Mine too. Same dates. I think it's suppose to go to Davisville and Baltimore first. So, I was just wondering if anything moved up.

Mine arrives in Delaware on the 4th, a conservative estimate given Siem will reach Davisville on the 1st. You all can expect a couple of days improvement in your estimates.

My TYD shows entering port channel on 3/1 but at the dealer on 2/26! It also shows has a dash for days until dealer arrival.
Its unloading at Davisville and only going to NJ so hopefully next weekend. My scheduled date was 3/19 so I'm happy.

Altair Leader has left Emden on its way to Southampton (probably loading Jags and RR/LRs)

Hi everyone...new member here. I ordered a 992 C4S that was just completed yesterday and is headed to Emden next week. Anyone else have a car headed to Baltimore in March?

Ray, if you are in New York, isn’t your car going into Davisville Rhode Island rather than Baltimore?
