Other Apple.com /Apple Store app iPhone X/8/8 plus Pre-order and Dispatch thread

[DocG1914]

Been out of the loop for the last 24+ hours due to travel...what I miss???? LOL

 

[sniffies]

Okay good! That was a fun video to watch very informative

That documentary should be a sticky in every year's pre-order/shipping thread in the future

People will have more appreciation, patience, and hopefully respect for the UPS workers after watching it

So are you guys willing to trust the Apple.com 'Pre-Sign for UPS delivery' printout, or are you taking off work to sign for it?

(Assuming it isn't dispatching to somewhere you will already be tomorrow)

Now how do we find local flights to track

For the AZ peeps, I think my phone flew into Ontario last year.

For the Houston folks in this thread, watch this timing for Departure Scans.

Curious, are you on the west coast?

I'm in Texas

UPS99 or GTI2688 or AAR242

Times don't match exactly, but the usual port of entry so far has been Anchorage, and the rest of the flights out of Inch have been staying in EMEA.

Thanks for the info

Mine is coming here too

 

[Pipper99]

You were! Thanks for the information

And I’ll be enjoying the comfort of my own home with my device all day

 

[buck1127]

And I’ll be enjoying the comfort of my own home with my device all day

I have to work so I have to pick up from a CC

 

[sniffies]

Now how do we find local flights to track

Type SDF in origin and your local airport in destination

Look for UPS

Coo! I guess mine is next for DC/VA

 

[kjgnola]

Is this the right page: http://uk.flightaware.com/live/iphone

I don’t see the last two flights?

That page seems to only track UPS flights and not charters. You would have to type those flights into the search box on that page.

There are 3 inbound aircraft to ANC from ICN right now. UPS99 or GTI2688 or AAR242

Those ICN to ANC don't match the last departure scan, they all left before it. It looks like Polar Air Cargo 654 PAC654 would be the closest match and is rolling now.

Thanks for the info

I was thinking if you were on the West Coast the UPS99 could be bringing iPhone straight there instead of going all the way to Louisville. And I guess yours could still be on that plane too. But I would keep an eye on all three till you start seeing scans out of Anchorage.

 

[yashz]

yours and mine will be depart same time. Same group and destination. I have got my import scan at 9:56 AM. Any idea of the flight path?

I’m in Seattle too. Last year the flight is from Louisville to Seattle Boeing airport.

 

[sniffies]

Attention New Yorkers!

We have 3 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

 

[kjgnola]

Those ICN to ANC don't match the last departure scan, they all left before it. It looks like Polar Air Cargo 654 PAC654 would be the closest match and is rolling now.

Dave

You most likely right, it also doesn't have a listed flight out of ANC so will likely head to SDF from there.

 

[honda1313]

My phone is going to the Apple store in OKC, and yet I still like to read all of the discussions on your flights, issues and concerns.

 

[Damstr]

Must be headed to MD with mine because I have the same departure time

Wonder if this could be our flight? Says Southwest though. Departure time matches our time.

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?

No. I won't change until it gets to the local hub; when it is scanned in, they print out a new hold for pick-up / redirect label. Once that is printed and scanned in, you'll see it flip from pending to accepted. Source: frequently have my packages redirected to a UPS locker for pickup.
