    You’re taking the sentence way too literally, you need to chill a little, dude. They mean the ship she was due to travel on. It’s longer to say it that way, so they say “her ship”. Similarly, if you were going to fly on an airplane, people would say what time does your plane land? They don’t think you own the plane. You had a misunderstanding.

      […] You had a misunderstanding.

      When I first read it, it felt, to me, like they were insinuating that she was on board and in transit while it happened, but on second thought perhaps I read too much into it.

      I think that’s a fair point!
