I'm impatient too. My wife just rolls her eyes at me anytime I talk about my new phone coming. Which is a lot!

Pretty sure my co workers are judging the hell out of me rn.... I won’t mention it at all until it’s in my hands....

 

[PedCrossing]

if i'm located near chicago, will my phone be coming via plane or truck?
if plane, can someone help me find the flight?

According to my past experiences, truck. It'll come through Indiana and make a stop at Hodgkins to change from a triple trailer to a double trailer around midnight and then into the city.

anyone else have this status? and from korea where does it go?

This, according to my friend at UPS, is one of the routes the iPhones will be taking. Likely next stop will be Anchorage, but could go to Hong Kong too.

So here are the flights heading to the Bay Area between today and tomorrow:

 

[kjgnola]

AK 4:30.........Still no import!

Anybody else??

Still there with you.

 

[KdParker]

Is other carriers IPhone X on those flights too? Or people who just ordered from Apple.

Just the apple orders.

I think the carriers will have them sent to their distribution centers ahead of time.

 

[piker944]

if you live on the West Coast AND got a Louisville import scan, your phone will likely be on one of these flights:

@UserJalen

[diegopcardoso]

Dear Bostonians, what are the flights for us?

 

[Tjnwjut]

Still no import scan!!

“Ok guys, Here’s the tracking number.....”

 

[Olopez0769k]

Found 3 more flights for tomorrow for us Bay Area folks!

Got to say all your post where great and informative thru this journey. Thank you for that

 

[eekcat]

What's funny is once it gets to Ontario, it will sit till tonight when it moves to my Distribution Center.

Yep... so it really doesn't matter which of these flights we're on... it seems like it usually sits until very early the next morning.

Anyone here expecting delivery in Arizona? I can't find any flights headed to AZ

 

[cannono]

The way my brain is already thinking about the X-2 announcement

 

[ricky007]

I've been reading this thread all day at work since last Friday. Oh the joy!

 

[sniffies]

Attention New Yorkers!

We have 2 flights to JFK

and 4 flights to EWR, which serves NY metro area

Next step is to wait for the departure scan and match it with one of the flights' departure times

Whichever comes closest is the flight you wanna track

 

[AJsAWiz]

Tomorrow is gonna be one hectic day for UPS....

Yes and possibly more hectic then the Apple Store (or others selling it tomorrow). Glad I went today to pick up my Otterbox Statement case there today. There was a very light crowd but it was during the day (week day).

 

[jessabelle1975]

4:30 AK here, import scan 11:07 am.

 

[diegopcardoso]

I couldn’t find any flights going to Boston until tomorrow morning, and the ones that will be here tonight have connections in CT, so I’m no sure if that’s how it will work.

 

[alia]

Sounds risky to me. What if it's someone who has one of your business cards?

You can roll your eyes, but UPS gave me my phone. Besides, someone would have had to 1) know I ordered a phone on launch day, 2) know which center to pick it up at (we have two in Orlando), 3) get ahold of my business card that’s professionally printed and bring it with them, and 4) what... steal my license??? I also had my driver’s license with my name on it as well. Honestly, not that risky.

Curious, are you on the west coast?

 

[jkel777]

It’s funny seeing all these images and videos of the airplanes and how they are shipped and stored in those containers; I work for UPS and unload those air cans all the time. Very efficient in terms of shipping but not very easy to unload at times.

 

[ripsaw650]

I requested pickup at local CC just a few minutes ago as well thru the app. Haven't received any confirmation yet. I know all UPS shipments route to this center for delivery so hopefully I can pick it up tomorrow during the day.

I went into the UPS Customer Care store/hub and talked to the lady at the counter. I asked her if she could hold the package at the facility instead of putting it on the truck to my house. This was on Tuesday, but according to UPS My Choice online it still says it is shipping to my house. Should I be concerned that they won't hold it at the hub? Or is this normal? Does anyone's actually say it's being held for pickup?
