That one left before mine so you were in the front of the line. Just sucks because it's a longer journey. Should land the 31st though.

I can totally empathize. So funny story...In 2015 I was expecting delivery of my M235 and did all the tracking on the way to PCD. Once the car got on the ship, I was watching its progress and then something funny happened. Two days or so out from the English Channel, the ship turned around. It seems that the crew discovered a stowaway onboard and since he wasn't on the manifest, they had to return him to the port where he boarded the ship! This was confirmed by multiple BMW Geniuses. Luckily the car got to the PC on time, but it was close.

Atleast they explained to you what happened. I got 0 explanations. I just blew up my dealers email demanding answers
