Sirius Highway got bumped to a late Jan 20th arrival while it was closer to Europe/Africa but it's been moving at a pretty good clip since then and is now scheduled for an afternoon arrival on the 19th again. It's looking like in the next three days it'll be passing between Florida and Cuba on the home stretch to Galveston.

January 3rd is when it actually departed from the port aboard the Sirius Highway. I think effectively what happened is the status of the car changed that day but the actual location was incorrect so it was telling me the date of latest update but the status itself was the previous status because the status had not officially changed. It's as though the automated system is reading two different databases, one containing the latest date of a status change and another that's updated less frequently with the actual status. If those two things are not updated simultaneously or have slightly different schedules for publishing their values you can run into what I've described above when using an automated system.

Working off of this assumption I think it's actually possible your car is on the Hamburg Highway which departed on January 7th from Bremerhaven despite that your car definitely arrived at the port on December 7th. I think in the next few days you might run into the same thing as me and the automated system will update and tell you that your car is aboard the Hamburg Highway headed for Zeebrugge. The line this morning told me that my car was headed for Zeebrugge which we all know is actually several days behind where we are now with the Sirius Highway.
The automated system just updated for me. It’s confirmed on Hamburg Highway with ETA to Galveston Jan 23rd. Good call

Nice! Hopefully the sailing is smooth, the Sirius has been moving along at a really good pace and moved up in schedule from when it originally departed, maybe Hamburg will have the same run.
