It's not just 'hard to dock'... It's simply plain broken, totally nuts, too hard to be even a little bit practically manageable. The ship at this state is not flyable unless you want to avoid lanes all the time.
So just giving the dev team a heads up, in case if they are unaware of it, and also wish to learn if I would be able to fly it in the future.

Get on the top league and try Renzu or Gallic Flash
Yeeeeeeeee 8-)
Bret Liner just looks cooler imo (smoke)
I've used all the liners in game, easiest one is Bret, then I'd say Lux or Piligrim. But I never found very good use for them, so I keep mine for storage etc.
I'm wondering how you're flying your liner? I'm using the Passenger liner as well, and I usually have no trouble getting through even the worst lanes (i:e those where the next lane is on the opposite elevation of the one you came from). In fact, it's one of the most agile liners.
It's mostly a matter of time before you find the correct way of flying it, though. The trick I found for myself is to always dock manually and line it up with strafing movements. Takes a bit of time, granted, but the ship's worth the tradeoff for me, personally. Liners are a bit different to the other transports; even the 5kers aren't that much of a bother compared to the likes of the Luxury Liner, despite usually being less agile. It's mainly the size which screws it over with lanes. If you can't get it lined up, try heading for the next lane ring and line it up on the way. Look through the rings and make sure the next one's near the middle of the one you're heading through, that usually does the trick. Using pilot view makes it a breeze.
