Most likely if you ordered from Apple it will be UPS-it’s a contract job that UPS has (see posts a ways back in the thread re: UPS doesn’t want to lose this business)

Apparently FedEx is shipping at least some Verizon phones according to earlier in this thread, people were able to look up via reference in the FedEx app to find their shipment.
 
My phone is so close but FEDEX was told not to deliver until Friday wonder if they will let me come pick up tho? Hmm[e

Did you select standard shipping or expedited ?
 
A macrumors friend just told me that Best Buy is offering 25 percent off accessories. If you purchase 3 or 4 items.
Just ordered the Apple folio case for 75 dollars.

I just ordered the same one
Any chance of some pics of the actual case? I bought a similar one on Amazon that was cheap.. it looks like the Spigen on the photoshopped images they always put up online, but I don't think it looks that nice in person. Wonder how the Spigen looks in real life.

25% OFF? Knowing BestBuy's practices this week, I'm sure they're more than likely adding 25% ONTO the price. Because, you know, it allows people to buy the case how they would like to buy it. Lol
 
So on packagemapping.com it shows "In Transit" then below that it says "In about 44 minutes". All day that has been counting down from 13 hours when I first saw it.

But then at the bottom it says "Order Processed, ready for UPS". So what's this whole countdown thing about?
 
We'll know which path they're going to take once one of you gets an update on your tracking for somewhere other than ZhengZhou. Until then, we won't know which flight is carrying these phones to Anchorage (and then Louisville afterwards).

@anshuvorty - Proximity has nothing to do with it - it's all got to do with UPS's logistics.
CHECK your tracking departure scan time from Zhengzhou, it WILL match a flight on fightaware that departs Zhengzhou within 30-45 min or so. Then you’ll see the arrival scan into the next airport close to the arrival time on FlightAware and the next matching departure scan will match a flight departing within 30-45 min or so. It’s simple deductive reasoning in the FlightAware app and tracking page. Any further questions please feel free to quote or PM me :)

Doesn’t look like it’s going to follow the usual ZhengZhou to Incheon route as there are no UPS planes scheduled to fly out...
See my last post Christi and if you go back a few pages or search my posts you’ll see what I mean. There’s TONS of freighter flights to Shenzhen and other parts of China. You may see Zhengzhou-Shenzhen-Incheon-Anchorage. You may see Zhengzhou-Anchorage (non ups flight today did that route) or you could see Zhengzhou-Guangzhou-Incheon-Anchorage. It ALL relates to the departure scan time matching a flight out of Zhengzhou and then an arrival scan into the following airport and departing there etc etc.

It could be BUT only if your iPhone tracking showed it departing CGO and then an arrival scan from Hong Kong and departure scan from Hong Kong etc.

Thanks for your posts. Very interesting and insightful. My only question now is, has anyone seen a departure scan from Zhengzhou yet? I have a departure from Zhengzhou at 1:20 am and an arrival at the same spot at 1:35 am. I’m guessing this means it was sorted and is waiting to be put on a plane.
