Well, it made it Alaska! Tuesday delivery date looks very feasible.

Wish they did saturday deliveries. I read the UPS site and saturday deliveries are available for world express shipments, but it would depend on whether apple decided to add them. So I don't suppose they did.

Mine is now moved a little further from me, near Toronto, so will be in Windsor sometime tonight, then will sit at the warehouse until monday. Might look into whether I can just pick it up, but not sure how that works prior to a missed delivery attempt.

This is kinda funny, I checked the order status of my iPad 2 at 1 A.M. 6/26/11 China time, and it had a departure scan from Chengdu, China at 6:35 A.M. on 6/26/11... either UPS's website can tell the future, or there's something wrong here...

Hey everyone. I ordered a white, 32GB, wifi, iPad 2 (with engraving) for my lady friend's birthday present. FedEx tracking showed the package leaving Hong Kong at 7:04pm local time. The closest FedEx flight that left around that time bound for the US mainland is flight 158 bound for Anchorage. Flight 158 left Hong Kong 6:50pm. I am pretty sure the time given on the package tracking data is the actual "wheels up" time of the airplane.

From tracking several Apple shipments out of China to the US. The package either goes to Anchorage or Memphis.

Flights can be tracked on Flightaware.com

Welcome to the clan! lol

I've heard of way too many issues with UPS tracking. What's up with that tech lately? It used to be spot on.

Sadly TNT isn't any better. None of the products I ordered so far, that where shipped by TNT, ever showed up in their tracking list.

Haha take a look at mine!
Ordered mine June 7th, so still within the estimate, but my tracking had told me I would get it a week ago originally, then last Thursday.

I missed mine. Does anyone know if UPS lets you pick up packages at their facility if they couldn't be delivered? I know Fedex does, you just have to wait until after 5PM that evening.

yes UPS lets you pick up at the nearest facility, easiest way is to go to their website and type in your tracking number, it will give you a list of options, and if you catch them in time they usually call back with a time your truck will be back at the terminal.

good luck catching them!

I ordered a white 32gb wi-fi only on Saturday, June 25 with blue smart cover. The cover has already shipped, but the iPad is still "Not Yet Shipped".

I was wondering just how long the average time to ship was, so I went a few pages back in this thread and collected some data. As it turns out the average time is just under 10 days from order date to ship date.


Here is my (admittedly unscientific) sample:

I ordered my iPad on June 19 and it shipped on June 25. Currently the package is stuck in Anchorage.

I also ordered mine on the 19th, but it shipped on the 23rd and made it to Kentucky before it got stuck. It apparently missed its flight this morning.

Package tracking is the worst thing that ever happened to my productivity. Good thing it's a slow week :p

Is your package being shipped by UPS or FedEx? What state are you in?
