Default Viking Queen - ETA JAX 11/4

After an excruciatingly long stay in Emden my car finally hitched a ride on the Viking Queen. It's heading directly to JAX with its ETA being 11/4.

It's current location is south of Ireland and in the open Atlantic.

Anyone else on this vessel?

According to VW schedule week 41/2017, Viking Queen does not dock In Jacksonville. The hurricane screwed up the schedules so no telling. Hope this is wrong

Not trusting the schedule right now... sched shows Siem Cicero going to jax next (it's at Emden since 36 hrs ago) but itinerary shows it going to halifax... so who really knows....

My car is on the Viking Queen as well. Drop off for my car is the port of Houston and being delivered to Porsche St Louis.

Exciting times!

Chris.

PWL have not updated their monthly schedule since the weather issues occurred this month. The published schedules are incorrect.

Both Fleetmon and Marine Traffic confirm the Viking Queen to be enroute to JAX.

I agree with you as well. While the storm was the storm it would seem Porsche and or the ship lines would try to clear up expectations and now there is another storm in the NE.

My GT3 is on Columbia Highway, docking JAX Oct 29th. Hopefully. Was meant to dock on the 23rd but got delayed.

I am supposed to be on Col Highway as well but considering all the scheduling and weather related issues it’s hard to have much confidence in anything we hear. It will be what it will be.

Afaik, VW/PAG no longer use Brunswick. I believe they switched a couple of years ago and now use JAX for all SE USA cars.

Here's today's position.
