Normally when packages show up on myChoice UPS I have been able to schedule a 2 hr delivery window. For some reason I cant do that with my iPhone. Do you guys think the option will become available once it reaches KY?

The time frame is there and it says "By End of Day" which is what I am showing as well.
 
Ahh for me its the advantage of taking only one thing and not having to deal with all kinds of chargers and cables all over the place as I do today...

I envision a future where we have these pads all ove the place and essentially can charge our phones every time we put our phones on the table :)
Well, I'm hoping something like what Energous is trying to do eventually becomes the standard - THAT is truly wireless charging. :)
 
I have UPS my choice and it didn't show up in mine ever, I looked it up by reference and have been tracking it for days. Try finding his using the reference trick.

I found it earlier under his phone number. Just left Hong Kong. He was a day behind me.

I'm not sure the answer to your question but I like to have my phones held at a local UPS center. That way you can just go pick it up during their regular business hrs.
 
So are we still thinking that those of us with a 11/01/2017 10:51pm Departure Scan from Hong Kong are on this flight?

If so, puts it in Kentucky at just before 1am Eastern time tonight (or technically early tomorrow morning)
Am I missing something? How could it be this one when our departure scan was at 10:51pm and this departed at 8:08pm?? No I think we’re on this one: https://flightaware.com/live/flight/CPA3284/history/20171101/1430Z/VHHH/PANC

Nope. They never let us do that with iPhone. It's too busy a delivery day. Unless something changes this year, I doubt it.

Seems there are at least 2 groups on here. One group tracks obsessively and panics if anything seems amiss. Another group pretends to sit back and criticizes the obsessive trackers. But no one would be here if they weren’t really interested in tracking the progress of their phone. This is really fun for me. I was up half the night because track by order # gave me the wrong tracking # so I’ve been tracking the wrong flight, took me a while to find the right one. Now I know for sure that I’m in the HK 10:51pm departure group. Had to get up at 6am to fight traffic for an hour and half for work an hour away. I don’t care, for me it’s all part of the preorder fun. Happy to report that I have refrained from calling Apple or UPS :) I’ve done this a few times and receiving the phone is exciting but I’m always sorry that this part of the journey ends.

ahh dang. Don't know where I got that from. I guess we are looking at 2:34am Eastern time arrival in Louisville in that case. So hopefully early that AM it will go out to the CC's at all the destination cities
Yes the time zones can be confusing. No worries, we’re airborne!
 
I’m just here to see if any of my fellow 11/17-11/24 people have gotten deliveries moved up yet?

And also to laugh at people who are literally tracking UPS cargo planes carrying their phones (while also being secretly jealous that their phone is actually on a plane).
Yes, supposedly getting mine Friday now.

I was about to reply about the same tech. I want to see something attached to the center of the room that beams omnidirectionally to charge everything in the room. Just read that Apple might be charging $199 for their wireless charging mat. That’s kinda crazy. Especially if it’s only available in white.

That was my first guess at what flight it could be on. In any case, it is airborne and we should have an update overnight in Louisville if not in Anchorage.

sorry if I’m “late for the party” but has the 10/31 4:30 plane that departed AK landed yet? I’ve seen no movement since.
 
Mine still says Nov 3 delivery, but that its still "Preparing For Shipment". How is it possibly going to make it by friday?
