Car was released for transport this morning. Going to Davisville port. What shipping company does Porsche use for its North East vehicles?

Woke up this morning to this wonderful surprise waiting for me on TYD. We shall see it she really makes it to Birmingham by April 22nd.

They use more than one. I know of these:
See the posts on this thread over the last 3-4 weeks. There appears to be a backup at Emden due to a dispute with workers — cars are backed up at the port and at the factory as a result.

Same as mine. Mine was 2/20 for step 6, and now says 4/20 for step 8. My SA told me this is because of a 60 day Aerokit delay, anyone else hear the same?

4/20 is a placeholder date for step 8, mine has said that since the last delay. Just this morning the date for my step 7 changed from 2/11 to 4/24 (yes later than the next step) so I think all the future dates except for the next one are just placeholders and not based on the schedule of any ship.

No clue. TYD said it went into production on 13th and to be completed 18th. It looks pretty close to complete to me.

yes. aero kit has been the source of a lot of delay. I have seen many go without with the plan of adding some aftermarket later.

I'd be happy if I got on board on board on the RCC Compass! My GTS America has been at the port since 3-9-23...I really "can't wait!"

Heard from my SA who said the Porsche rep told them it's just due to a transportation issue. Not sure if that means just delays or something else (damage in transport?). If the former, it's pretty disappointing that my car's been released for transport since 2/3 and gone nowhere while all sorts of other vehicles have made it to Emden and on to ships.
