Is there a way to track ship-to-store orders? Apple doesn't offer a tracking number for those. I have read somewhere that I can track by reference. Any details?
I paid the 14 dollars for faster shipping and am getting mine on Tuesday. I don't think the shipping method changed anything.
You can use your phone number to track by reference number on UPS website, should work even for ship-to-store orders!
As stated in this thread: Go to ups.com, create a UPS My Choice account. Go to Tracking tab, select Track Shipments, then Track by Reference on the left nav and enter your shipping/billing phone number in the Shipment Reference field for a Package and accept the default date range. If you have Apple Store shipments in flight, you might see them. I do for what I believe is a 87W charger shipment, but my MBP is not yet in the shipped state so I don't see that yet.
Thanks for the confirmation. That's what I thought. They are shipped from Elk Grove, CA. Hope we get them on the 15th.
I'm just glad Apple is shipping orders on different planes throughout the weekend. Keeps the probability low that Isis will hijack a plane and crash it into an iceberg outside of Anchorage, destroying the lives of thousands of prospective MacBook Pro with Touch Bar owners.
Good to know a location! Now I'm just wondering which service from UPS Apple will use, how fast it'll get here...
13" Touchbar BTO maxed out, just shipped today from Shanghai via FedEx, eta 11/17 to NorCal.
15" BTO ordered at the same time is still processing... [edit: just changed to PFS!]

So, tomorrow/Monday is a big day for some of us ?
Mine just arrived in Louisville, KY (UPS worldport hub) and then departed.

Potentially this flight (UPS950) has our west coast Monday delivery orders? Mine updated as showing departure scan 3:39PM local time in Louisville. Their only flight today to CA is airborne now since 4:06 and hits Oakland tonight - and then I presume a feeder or smaller flight to distribute the Los Angeles / San Diego / Portland etc shipments.

My Mac is been sitting in customs for 8.5 hrs at Shanghai waiting for an export scan.
I hope they don't find the preinstalled cocaine stash. It was an expensive upgrade

My order shipped overnight!
15” MBP Space Gray [High End Model, No BTO Options]
Ordered on October 27 at 1:51p Central US Time
An interesting detail (see image below): UPS says my delivery was originally scheduled for Friday but is now scheduled for "Early Delivery" on Thursday. I don't put too much credence in this "early delivery" line, but it is interesting.
My original delivery window from Apple was November 17-25.
My Stock 15 order looks exactly the same (GA)
My Louisville departure scan was at 3:55pm so I could possibly be on here also. I'm in San Diego.
Especially with the laws they have regarding drugs in East Asian Countries. On my way through customs in Taipei, there were signs along the way warning you that the penalty for drug trafficking could be death. Wouldn't want Tim Cook to be executed the next time he goes to inspect the slaves churning out MacBooks.
tryna keep it together , this December 14 ship date got me wading thru the darkness
