**Corrected**If your flight left Hong Kong at 9:34pm this is the flight it is on!!

It looks like the adjusted flight 69's info and if its now correct it left hong kong at around 7:00pm so it could not be our plane. It looks like if you have a departure scan from Hong Kong at 9:34 your iPhone is on flight 59. I updated the link below.

Lands in Anchorage Alaska at 3:33pm Local time(which might change). Here they come!!:D

**UPDATE** Plane is scheduled to leave Alaska at 5:05pm and land in Ontario, CA at 10:28pm. (that's like 40 miles from me!!!)

Just letting everyone know, we are all wrong. I called UPS, and they said that my phone (also on this flight) will go through customs in Alaska and then go onto Louisville, along with all the other iPhones, where they will stay until apple instructs them to ship them out to everyone who ordered.

Now of course, this guy could not know what he is talking about, but it sounds more realistic then tons of iphones going to Ontario...:p

Not saying your right...however, there is some evidence to support this,

1.) Lousville, KY has one of the largest UPS hubs, UPS Worldport, and there was an extensive documentary on it not to long ago, about how Worldport operates, and sorts through a TON of packages. Documentary can be found here if your bored :p ... http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/channel/ultimate-factories/videos/ups-worldport/

2.) This pretty much matches up with my tracking info on UPS.com thus far and timestamps are pretty close.

FYI: For those who are curious as to what flight it is, it is right here, http://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS61
 
Looks like mine was on that flight, too.

So are you saying they are going from Ontario CA to Louisville?
 
GUYS! It is not going to Ontario. It is going to Louisville like EVERY other iPhone coming from asia. I even confirmed this with a supervisor. So no, they will not be going to Ontario.

Its not an obsession. I just find it amusing to read all the posts of the other people tracking their phones. By the way in case you have not noticed I am not he only person posting to this thread.(that includes you) Why do you think its been so popular today?? people need a little levity in their lives. There are so many things we have to do in life that sometimes its nice to be able to do what we want to do. Once a year i like to track my iPhone as it is shipped to me from China. If you think thats pathetic thats OK. But think about this you took the time to come into the thread then read through it and then post to tell me i am pathetic. I wan't to be in this thread. Why are you here??? Now who seems pathetic???
 
The flight that was supposed to leave at 5:05 hasn't left yet. Im getting irritated....lol jk. But i want some activity already lol.

EDIT: nevermind the website was just behind, but my UPS parcel never got a departure scan, so they either didn't scan the packages, and that was just a Customs checkpoint, or my package was transferred to another plane and is still sitting there :(

Looks like our iPhone's won a one night vacation in beautiful Alaska, as it looks like they are indeed going to Louisville, and Louisville has no more flights from Alaska tonight.

Mine's in the same boat. Seems to me last year they skipped some departure scans & it was just like, magic or something when it'd suddenly appear at its next destination.

Well this plane is already on its way to Ontario so it will definitely be going there. If you look at the planes activity over the last month it has only been to louisville 2 times and never has it gone from Ontario to Louisville. I am not saying that they are not going to louisville but I think it would be pretty silly to bring the phone 40 miles from me(and many others I am sure) to take it off the plane its on and then send it to louisville so they can send it back to Ontario. I guess we will see.
 
2 iphones, 2 dufferent routes

1 of my phones went to alaska from china, the other took a day trip to Korea than to alaska, I thought that waskinda funny.

But I think they took our phones off the plane for customers, and are going to put them on a separate plane to go to Louisville. Once they get there, they will sit there until probably Wednesday or Thursday, and then go to everywhere across the country. The rest of the non-iPhones probably continued on to Ontario to get sorted.

If you don't have a departure scan, then your phone was probably taken off of that plane and put on one going to Louisville. They had over an hour in Anchorage to take cargo off. It could have happened.

Just because that plane is going to Onterio, doesn't mean your iPhone is on it. They were taken off that plane and will depart to Louisville in the AM.

Seriously dead on. Do I care where my phone is right now? Nope.....Am I enjoying the fun and camaraderie? Absolutely. It's just a phone, nothing more. I'll get it Friday and even though I am not as excited this time around as others I'm still looking forward to it. The shipping games and all of this dumb quirkiness is making me more excited for my delivery. Nothing wrong with being a nerd these days, nothing at all.
