I have some info and thought that it would be fun to share with those that are interested. I am fascinated with this process. I find it incredible that my delivery will be touching through so many countries, covering so much distance and going through so many hands to get here on time.

I received my shipping information early this morning. My KKs left the factory on October 1st, however, missed the feeder ship by two days. So it has been waiting to go from what I can see from the shipping information. This delivery will be by two container ships.

I am not sure of where the feeder ship stops Dennis before Hong Kong.  This boat goes to Hong Kong based on my packing slip, but could make multiple stops during its 10 day journey to Hong Kong.

 

After talking with Tiny Fish, his first KK shipped from Singapore and the second from Hong Kong. 

 

I googled pacific shipping routes and the big 2 to Canada is the NP1 and NP2 route. 

 

NP1 starts:

 

 

Singapore SGSIN

Laem Chabang

Da Chan Bay

Hong Kong

Yantian

Vancouver

Tacoma (WA)

Seattle (WA)

Pusan

Kaohsiung

Singapore

 

The NP2 starts

 

Hong Kong

Yantian

Kaohsiung

Shanghai

Pusan

Tacoma (WA)

Seattle

Vancouver

Yokohama

Pusan

Kwangyang

Hong Kong

 

Im not sure what the second boat will be but found all NP1 and NP2 ships for the month of October. 

 

based on this information and my packing slip, I am shipping to Hong Kong first boat.  The NP1 starts from Singapore which makes sense based on what you said.  Tinyfishes last ship was the same route as my order.  Indonesia to Hong Kong, then on the NP1 route one stop then to Vancouver.

 

If my research is correct I will ship on either October 28th via OOCL Asia or November 4th via Zim Rotterdam (both are NP1 routes)

 

Arrival at Port of Vancouver will be either November 13th or November 20th and then transported across country to Toronto

 

Google is a powerful tool!!!!

Wow.. I never knew containers went from Surabaya directly to Hong Kong.. I thought all boxes went to Singapore first and got on the motherships there.. Must be a Canada thang.. Learn something new every day..

My first order got on the mother ship in Singapore my 2nd order got in the mothership in Hong Kong.

thanks guys.

 

I was trying to go over the shipping info tonight after work.  I didnt see a key piece of info when I looked at the email at 530am.

 

Itha Bhum shipped my order from Surabaya on the 3rd of October and shipped it to Port Kelang on october 7th.  Port Kelang is in Malaysia.  

 

Now the piece of the email that I had missed is that it will be picked up on October 16th 2015 via cargo ship Mosel Trader

well my email alert went off and the boat loaded way sooner than expected and is now on its way to Singapore.  I hope this means that it will make it back to Hong Kong for the earlier ship over to Canada!!
