Same on mine, I've been told mid-Sept with no text yet, I suspect it may be on a later ship.
Thanks for the info!
I assume loading is pretty much a 7 day operation then? Do they run 24/7 or a working day shift for 7 days?
I'm keeping an eye on GLOVIS STELLA at the moment.
She is heading into Benicia to unload but I can't find out where she is going after that.
There is a suggestion that she is going to anchor up off Pier 80.
If she does come to Pier 80 (after RCC ASIA departs) I don't think she will be coming to Europe though - I spent a long time yesterday trawling through various European port bookings for September and didn't see her name feature - unlike RCC ASIA and GLOVIS SIGMA.
We shall see...

Was told that my MS will be on the SAFMARINE MAFADI and due to be with me mid September.
GLOVIS SUN She is due to depart Zeebrugge at 22:00 tonight and arrive in Southampton at 14:30 tomorrow.
GRAND DAHLIA Her midday Z position is shown on the chart below. As you can see she is bang on track about 150nm E of Bermuda and on time for an arrival in Zeebrugge on 13 Aug and I expect subsequently into Southampton on 15 Aug. The weather looks good for the remainder of her passage across the Atlantic. Note: Ignore the Zeebrugge port schedule entry for her.
GLOVIS CAPTAIN She is making good progress and is on schedule to arrive at the entrance to the Panama Canal on Saturday. She will continue to experience unstable weather conditions ie thunderstorms right through until Sunday. At the moment it looks as though she might also encounter some rough weather when she arrives in the Caribbean on Sunday - nothing dramatic but nevertheless something to keep an eye on. I expect her to transit the old canal locks early on Sunday morning. My estimate for her arrival in Zeebrugge is 21 Aug. Note: Ignore her Zeebrugge port schedule entry. Don’t forget to to enter the competition! (Nobody entered yesterday
)
RCC ASIA Will shortly arrive alongside Pier 80 and will commence loading later today. She is a standard sized Panamax carrier and so I would expect at least a 3 day load. No departure details are yet known although I found strong evidence to suggest she is coming to Europe. My rough estimate for her arrival in Zeebrugge is 30/31 Aug.
GLOVIS STELLA. I’m just keeping eye on this ship at the moment as she may well load at Pier 80 once RCC ASIA departs. I do not believe she is coming to Europe.
GLOVIS SIGMA I am confident that she is also bound for Europe. My rough estimate for her arrival in Zeebrugge is 10 Sep.

GLOVIS STELLA Apparently, she will indeed anchor off Pier 80 but this is to conduct bunkering (refuelling) only.
She will not call at pier 80 according to my source.

What boat takes the cars to Southampton tonight, is it the Glovis Sun, or does she go off somewhere else and UK based M3s go on a different boat?
Thanks for all your hard work and the amazing help and hope you give to every one of us crazed people waiting for our cars

The GLOVIS SUN is en route out of Zeebrugge port as I write this, so hopefully we'll be OK!

Yep the SUN is on the move. Getting closer now for those folks with matches on this ship.
Sorry, but this is just NOT going to happen.
The green area is outside the docks - there is no connection between the docks without leaving a customs area.
When ships need to collect cars from 'the other docks' they move the ship.
You can see this under the Movements column on southamptonvts
Look at ORION HIGHWAY's entry.
She is moving from 44 (Eastern Docks) to 105 (Western Docks).
