For those with cars waiting at Emden, Glovis Cosmos just left Bremerhaven and on its way to Emden. Per Vessel Finder, it should arrive in 6 hours or so. It’s four days early per the Stena schedule so I wouldn’t be surprised if it moors off the coast. I’ve been tracking Cosmos for several days now and it uses codes for the destination instead of the port name, I.e., DEEME = Germany Emden. Anyway, Best Case Scenario some of us will get emails in the next couple of days saying that we’re leaving Emden - yaaay! Worst Case, Cosmos will leave us behind, head straight to South Korea and we have to wait a week for Companion (with Benicia still up in the air).

Things are slowly coming into focus. Next week’s Stena schedule should clear things up for sure.

Thank you for letting us know. Fingers crossed we board and head to the west coast.

Quick update: I was up late last night and observed Cosmos docking in Emden so it arrived 3 days early. It parked next to the east coast bound Supreme Ace. We should know whether Cosmos will be heading to SD and/or Benicia in the next day or two if people start receiving emails.

P.S. Glovis Companion just left Cuxhaven and will be visiting Bremerhaven in a couple of hours. After BRV, it's onto Emden! It also appears to be ~2 days ahead vs. the schedule.

Looks like Glovis Cosmos has set sail and I have not received an email stating my San Diego bound car was on it. This could be because it actually didn't make it on or because the tracking system is down today for regular maintenance as stated by another member on a different thread. Fingers crossed!!

Sorry about that! At least Companion should be arriving in Emden by late tomorrow or Monday from Bremerhaven and SD was confirmed as a stop. Hang tight!

Did you get any updates from your SA when you went in today to do paperwork?

Released from Quality Assurance, waiting on transport vehicle pickup! Paperwork is all done, payment exchanged, just waiting on the transport car and then PDI!

Glovis updated the WK 11 schedule. Most calls are subject to volume situation. It also seems that Glovis Cosmos is heading back to Emden.

That’s really odd about Cosmos. On Vessel Finder, it shows it’s still docked at Zeebruge. Since it didn’t seem anyone received emails after Cosmos left Emden this past weekend, I just assumed it was heading straight to Korea after Zeebruge and skipping the US west coast. Certainly would be happy to learn if Cosmos is heading back to Emden due to forgetting to load a bunch of west coast Porsches.

It’s also strange that both Cosmos and Companion still has the volume situation footnotes for SD and Benicia. By this week, one would think they need to finalize the schedule instead of being a game time decision. In addition to the two new ships, I noticed the Blossom took SD off as a stopover - it’s just Benicia now.

Companion is slowing heading into Emden now and should be docking by this afternoon (North America time). Fingers crossed!

Just checked the arrivals for the port of Emden and it doesn't seem like Cosmos is returning. Marine Traffic has incorrect info listed. Next ship is the Companion per the Glovis schedule. Fingers crossed our cars make it on. The next SD bound ship isn't until May

*EDIT* Someone just posted in the 992 forum that a T was loaded onto Cosmos bound for SD.

Great news for SD bound owners. It appears the Cosmos captain must have punched in his/her next destination on their GPS. It’s still docked at Zeebruge but will be stopping in Brunswick, GA (USSSI is the code) after crossing the Atlantic. Might be for a refueling stop since Brunswick is not listed on the schedule?

Note that Neptune Barcelona made a late change to add Brunswick, also not scheduled. But then, as it neared the US, it rerouted to Baltimore instead. These schedules are more flexible than I would have expected,
