Why are a lot of people assuming their order will department from Louisville tonight when their order isn't scheduled to be delivered until Friday?

I agree, they could get on a plane Thursday night and arrive in plenty of time. I personally think people are wasting their time looking at flights right now, my common sense tells me that the phones won't be in the air until Thursday night. I bet these planes they're tracking are shipping packages for a Thursday delivery.

pages and pages all within minutes of eachother!!

Those are our phones people!!!!

Look through the list of flights and look for your city or your hub's city.. Keep in mind that if you live in a smaller city, it will probably not be a UPS#### flight bringing your phone it will be a smaller cargo company contracted by UPS.

Hoping to get a status update when my iPhone leaves in about an hour and a half :)

UPS982 B763 Boeing Field Intl (KBFI) Thu 03:23AM EDT Thu 04:44AM PDT
 
I'm too anxious. I want this beast now! I've been watching UPS and Apple.com since Monday. I may or may not have them bookmarked. :D
 
But according to this:

Anchorage, AK, United States 09/18/2012 12:58 A.M. Departure Scan

we still havent arrived anywhere for the past 2 days? Im not worried because it still says on time and is still updating times and stuff.

Mine says the exact same thing. Slightly concerned...
 
Well I'm pretty sure mine will be on UPS 982 to Boeing Field at 3:23 am since there are no other flights to my area on Thursday or Friday.

Since it'll be here at 5 am, it is technically arriving in time to be delivered tomorrow, but I'm sure they will hold it for Friday. If Apple sends my shipping email tomorrow I may pre-sign just in case. I would be super annoyed if I missed the UPS guy.
 
Gotta love it, my status in the Apple Store App still says "Preparing for Shipment", but UPS just sent me the email saying I have a delivery on the 21st, and I've been tracking it via the reference number. It's almost here.
 
Its called being a BuzzKiller :cool:

Lol you guys crack me up. BuzzKiller? Whether it's on a plane now or about 16 hours from now we still won't get the phone until Friday morning/afternoon. Is the flight really that relevant? It won't get to us any quicker, relax man. lol

Lol.. This is crazy. UPS tracking status just stays stuck in departed from Alaska since updating on 9/18 12:58am local. Probably will get an update at the last minute tomorrow.

This whole thread is irrelevant as we could track via UPS website but yet you, me and others keep coming to this thread every now and then :cool:

If someone needs to relax, you know who ;)
