If I had to guess I'd say 30 minutes to refuel? Whatever they have on that plane headed to China they'd have to unload it maybe 30 minutes? Reload 30 minutes? Wheels up after spending an hour 30 on the ground, wheels up right after..

That 767 going to CGO now could be back in Incheon in 5-7 hours earliest I’d say with it being a roughly just under two hour flight to CGO. Land, unload*, figure about 90 min to two hours TOPS on the turn cause A it’s a 76 not a 747 and people are experienced at turning those planes out-perhaps the Poster that worked at the worldport tank could elaborate further on turn times for a 767 vs 747 fully loading/unloading. Then 2 hours back to ICN if that’s where it’s off to. So 5-7 hours from now i’d Guess.
(*probably unloading raw parts for iPhone X to take a guess-They wouldn’t send the sucker empty I don’t think)
Edit: I encourage people to not think too hard on time zones. Think more in terms of “plane will be here X hours from NOW” it’s less confusing that way. Earliest that plane could be in ANC is 20 hours with a stop in ICN. 7 hours to ICN, 2 to turn is 9 plus 10-11 to ANC.
The correct way to answer this is let me get my iPhone X and I'll tell you my review on it!
If memory serves correct it was about 20 minutes give or take to fully load or unload a 747. It is pretty awesome, the deck is automated where the operators move the cargo off the plane using controllers.
The entire shift for next day air is about 4 hours from the first flights arriving to the last ones leaving.

Just what I was looking for kj! So a 767 would be even less then probably. 5-6 hours back to ICN then and then onto ANC (we HOPE!)

It normally takes about 1 hr 45 minutes to turnaround a UPS Freight flight. This includes offload/on load, and fuel load based on weight and a scheduled departure time.

How do we figure out what plane we might be on?
My Tracking hasn't updated since Sunday but still due for Nov. 3rd.

I'm waiting on both ends. The case I bought has a label that was printed this morning but nothing has happened all day!
I have two coming. One with the 10/30 1:35 time and another with the 10/29 12:57 scan. Both have now been full charged to my card.
For me UPS only shows 10/29 ZZ arrival scan 12:57am and hasn't updated since then. Anyone else have this?
Next round from UPS in China leaves in around 6:30 hours, and continues for hours after that. I think the majority of us we start seeing activity around then. So 6-12 hours.
Same exact times.... Waiting for a departure scan.
The charges for my card has been finalized, it looks like they’re getting ready to start moving again?
That's what I was looking at and I think that it could possibly be the flight!
Joining in this fun thread (last time I did it was for iPhone 6 I believe).
