Hm, it might be cutting it close considering the flight from Louisville to Ontario leaves at 1:54am (UPS2904) and the UPS99 arrives (with the delay) at 1:46am
Got a tip for us?

As long as they get there early enough to get their connecting flights for delivery tomorrow I'm ok with a small delay.
Actually we should be good considering it can take either the UPS2904 (1:54am departure from Louisville to Ontario) or the UPS916 (2:52am departure)
I'm pretty sure it doesn't work like that, since there's a lot of other cargo that UPS is moving, every flight is probably scheduled beforehand in regards to what it will carry.
I'd say there's a pretty high likelihood that our scheduled deliveries for tomorrow might not pan out
Careful, you might be thinking ontario is in Canada. But there is a Ontario California. The UPS plane either lands in Hamilton or Mississauga.
If it's to late it won't have time to clear customs/brokerage so we may get it Wednesday instead of tomorrow.
Yes.
Let's hope they clear brokerage fast and land in Mississauga instead of Mount Hope.
Yes.

I hope we'll get them tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
Oh you're right, time to see if I can find the flight our phones will take once they land in Louisville
UPS 476 Louisville to Hamilton - 4:42am arrive 5:56am
UPS 488 Louisville to Mississauga- 4:20am arrive 5:43am
Okay so if the plane lands in Louisville at 1:31 AM, it still has awhile to to get brokerage cleared before the flight to Toronto at 4:20 AM (https://www.google.ca/search?q=loui...d=chrome&ie=UTF-8#q=louisville+to+toronto+ups).
Yes. UPS has my delivery between 9am to 12:30pm. The UPS guy always comes around 10:30am for my deliveries. Kind of tight if it lands at 5:43am.
My watch came thru Hamilton then concord, hence i got it Monday.
My UPS tracking info says it's still in Anchorage. Kentucky is far south east USA, I am in Vancouver. How likely is it for UPS to meet their target of Sep 20? Not likely. However, if it's going to Ontario California that could be possible #fingerscrossed
Thanks for the encouragement buddy!There there my friend, I'm sure yours will be shipped out soon
Mine has said order approved since last monday (sept 12) and no shipping yet
Edit. Same phone as well 7+ 128 GB JB
For those in the west coast and the departure scan of 17:50 Alaska time, our package left 18:34 PST for Ontario, California. ETA: 22:48 PST on flight UPS SX59. We might get ours tomorrow!
I really find it weird that I preordered ASAP and just got my order approved today.
I'm not really mad. I upgrade every year, and this time I had decided to go with the Plus model (coming from a 6S and a 6 before that) because of the extra battery life, extra screen space, and better camera. I was super excited for my 7+ and if I had been able to get one for launch day, I'd be totally happy with it. But given that my ship date ended up being over a month after I ordered it, it gave me time to think. I realized that I'd get the things I was looking for (more battery, more screen space, and a better camera with OIS) with a 6S Plus.
Here in Ontario, my 128GB 7+ with AppleCare+ would have been $1523.24 (CAD) after taxes. A used 128GB 6S Plus with a year left of AppleCare+ is about half that. Sure, the 7 Plus is better. But as far as I can tell, the only noticeable improvement is the camera. Is a slightly better camera and stereo speakers worth twice the money? For some people, maybe. For me, it wasn't. I could use the difference to buy a new Apple Watch and a set of AirPods and still have a bit left over.
Anyway I didn't mean to sidetrack the thread, my initial intention was just to point out that if Apple had made enough iPhones to meet demand, they'd have my money right now and I wouldn't be thinking twice about it. As it stands, their delays cost them a sale.
