In this boat.

My phone is in PA and its destination is NYC, it doesn't need to get on a plane however the route it needs to take is severely affected by the storm by truck. I guess I'll take a backseat until next week. Stay safe and stay dry Eastcoasters!

Edit: ETA was Today 10/30. Ordered 10/2 16gb Blk

I guess our phones are on the same truck it's showing departure from PA around 5pm today so they should be here in NYC by tomorrow depending on whatever delays sandy has caused

Update - tracking number received and status is shipped. Due to be delivered by end of day on Wed Oct 31.

Same here. I also ordered a 16gb white on the same day. With Sandy (I'm in Maryland), most likely will be delays though according to UPS.

Departure Scan

I hope I can get the phone by Friday. Does anyone know what airport it will land at when delivering to NYC?

Exactly the question I came looking to ask.

JFK and Newark may open tomorrow but there is such a backlog of flights with stranded passengers that I wouldn't even expect a Friday delivery. I'm in the same exact boat.

I'm not sure that they fly directly into NY... They might be driven up from somewhere outside like Connecticut or Pennsylvania. Gonna do some research to see what the patterns typically are out of DFW airport.
 
Got my 16 gb white today that I ordered on 10/4 with one nice large chip on the side! Looks like I'm going to the apple store tomorrow.
 
I got my 16 gig black today and flawless. I wouldn't have sent it back anyways but I'm really glad I got what I paid for.
 
Ordered Oct. 15th in the morning

Just came off of back order Oct 31st at 12:30am.

So 12 full business days and an hour.

Ordered 2 white 16gigs and 1 black 16 gig from the AT&T website.

I think they fly into Newark and take it on the ground from there. Although I hope your right. I would be so happy if I get it by Friday with all things considered.

Me too. I think Friday's very reasonable. The storms pretty much done for. The conditions don't seem like they'd prevent any planes from at the least leaving Texas. I saw USPS deliver something here in Brooklyn today, so I don't see why UPS wouldn't for the rest of the week.

EDIT* Newark opens at 7AM tomorrow. Some home restored.

Looks like all UPS deliveries will be resuming today. All those "we're not working here" zip codes have been lifted. Maybe there's a chance I still get my phone on Friday...

I had a 8th of a inch of rain in 3 days and UPS is still closed what a joke! This is a nightmare my phone makes it to me and then gets held hostage by UPS. I cant even pick it up WTF

To my surprise my tracking changed from exception to on the truck for delivery today. I'm in Queens NY. Hope you get yours soon
 
To be delivered today, but I won't be home :(

Same here...just hope my roommate is up early enough to intercept the package when UPS comes to deliver. I cringe at the thought of it sitting out on the front porch....too easy for the box to grow legs!!!! :( I work less than a mile away from home so I just might take a little stroll at lunchtime. :p
 
LOL its just crazy we wait a month and now we got to wait again. My phone got to the next town over and i cant get it, its driving me nuts lol

Lol exactly. I'm not even sure if mine has left Texas. So close, yet so far away.

Mannnnnnnnn, my phone was supposed to leave Texas on Monday..My updated status now says, "adverse weather may cause delay." Now, I'm just hoping to see it by Friday. Gahhhh Sandy..
