2020 MacBook Pro order status

Update
i7/32gb/512 Silver
Ordered May 4th
Shipping to North Carolina, USA

Got the word this morning that it had shipped. Was originally given a window of May 20-28. Apple now says delivery on Thursday May 21, but UPS says delivery by end of Friday 5/22. I am at the end of the local UPS route so I expect UPS's estimate is more accurate.

If you wanna watch it in real time, it is on flight UPS99 -- https://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS99

If it catches the next one to Louisville, it'll probably be on UPS105 out of Anchorage -- https://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS105

How did you find this flight information for our shipments? I’m located just outside Toronto Ontario so I wonder where it will go after Anchorage. Do they all go to Louisville and are then disbursed across North America from there?

I’m just north of Toronto and in my experience, packages from Apple go from Anchorage to Louisville, then to Mount Hope, and finally to Concord before it’s out on a truck to me. My BTO 10th-gen is in Louiseville as of Saturday according to UPS tracking with 21st delivery but I feel it will be here sooner.

Interesting. I’m located in Oakville so I wonder if it will go out for delivery to me straight from Mount Hope which is near Hamilton.

I sleuthed this out last month while tracking my iPad Pro. Once I saw that people were having shipments head from Incheon to Anchorage, it was easy to go onto FlightAware and look up UPS flights out of Incheon headed to Anchorage. Then, looking at Anchorage airport, there was only one flight at the time headed to the USA. Sort of just following the trail wherever it leads.

Upon looking at today's scheduled departures, it looks like there are actually three UPS flights headed to Louisville (SDF) all around the same time -- UPS105, UPS109, and UPS67 -- all arriving between 0030-0130 tomorrow morning local time.

Not sure how it would get from SDF to you, if it even goes through SDF. The best thing to do would be to see how it got to other folks via UPS who live in/around your area or the tracking history of a previous apple order. Scheduled departures from SDF are listed here: https://flightaware.com/live/airport/KSDF/scheduled

EDIT: Based on the info provided by ccolaco, maybe it'd eventually be on UPS476 https://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS476/history/20200519/0857Z/KSDF/CYHM

13” i5/16/1TB ordered from BestBuy May 10 delivered today. Should have been delivered 5/15 but good old UPS f’ed it up.

Waiting a day or two for the coronavirus to die off the box and then I’ll check it out.

Absolutely brutal. Just curious, what was the motivation to upgrade to the 10th gen?

On a side note, mine did deliver this morning. Haven't had a chance to set it up yet, but very much looking forward to that today. UPS driver said they're getting paid triple to work today to cover the backlog (holiday Monday in Canada)

Did yours go through clearance? Mine has been stuck on clearance since Friday.

Huh--I never would have thought of doing this, but I just looked out of curiosity for the FedEx flights out of Anchorage, and sure enough, as soon as the flight took off, my tracking status updated to "Departed FedEx location." Clever!

i7/32gb/1TB Space Gray
Ordered May 4th
Shipping to Pittsburgh, PA
Current status: Departed FedEx location, Anchorage, AK (via Shanghai)

HA! Almost choked on some apple while reading this, but I do understand. I keep Clorox wipes ready. Had a driver from Amazon leave my box in bird poop yesterday. As if corona wasn’t already enough, disgusting.

Mine didn't get held up in customs. My import scan happened within a couple hours of it arriving at Mount Hope. Everything moved pretty quickly until it got to the final access point for delivery.
 
I tip my hat to you folks who managed to figure out the stuff about the flights. I went on that flightaware page and it gave me a headache!

I ordered on 5 May as well, same spec as your except for 1TB SSD and US keyboard, sent to mainland Europe. It was shipped on the 16/17 via this flight https://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS87/history/20200518/0749Z/PANC/EDDK (it was the only flight that matched my UPS tracker — the dates differed by 1 day or so due to crossing timezones). It would arrive at my house on 19 May.

Hopefully they can turn it around that quickly. Let me know if you see any other scan updates. No changes yet on my end. I'll report back as soon as I see any changes.

It’s a very quick turnaround. I just had an arrival scan and crossing my fingers for a departure scan in the next hour or so (flight takes off in approx 40 minutes).

Sweet - mine now shows the arrival scan too! Fingers crossed - who knew tracking a shipment could be this much fun :) lol
 
Mine just departed PANC. I was a little concerned that the package did not make it out of Pudong yet. For some reason, the departure scan from PVG was missed but I had a pleasant surprise when I saw the arrival scan in PANC!

@mybrotherischad Looks like we may have missed that flight. For some reason when I had checked, it said the flight had another 1 hour before departing but then I checked again and it looks like that wasn't the case. Hopefully we'll be on the next flight.

There are three flights. Missed the first two. The last takes off in a couple minutes so we should know soon!
