by the way, can someone explain to me how the UPS11 airplane is supposed to fly back to China within 7hours??
do they switch the license plate or something so it‘s “virtually” the same plane going through a warp hole?

I think UPS11 is not the name of the plane, so there will be another plane, the one operating UPS10, that after landing in Shanghai will operate UPS11.

I don't think its necessarily the same physical plane.. the callsign is a flight number not of a physical plane

Ahh okay, I guess then it's Tuesday delivery for me, since I still don't have an import scan and it's a 6-7 Hour drive from Köln to Munich :/ Sigh.
Not all hope is lost. What was your initial delivery date and what is it now? Everyone sees +1 day now so Thursday is Friday, Friday is Monday (or Tuesday because of the holiday) etc.

UPS11 is the flight number, but you want to be checking the aircraft callsign. They reuse as appropriate.

Check flightradar to get the callsign info, it’s not available on flightaware without registering/paying. Flightradar is nicer for checking where a single aircraft has been.

the window was 29.10-02.11 form Apple, but UPS showed me 28.10 delivery until last night 00:00 CET when it changed to 29.10.

Then it probably will be Friday. If it were Friday according to UPS and still is, I'd doubt it. But given that the tracking is indeed very delayed, your MBP could already be on its way as most trucks arrive in the morning before they are loaded into the delivery trucks :)

True that, fingers crossed! :)

Only kidding ?

Still no import scan so I made my own reasoning up. Hope I didn’t jinx myself.

Am I the only 29.10 delivery here still waiting for one?

Damn I really felt that. The best joke tomorrow would be "available for pickup on the next work day" ?

Or "business is closed" which I received quite often when parcels are delivered via the Austrian Post (that now also delivers DHL exclusively). There is no business address at our postal address. It always is a regular working day at regular hours. But apparently our appartment has no business hours ?

Auf dem Weg
Import Scan

Sorry to disappoint ?
 
Hmm. I still have 2/11 on UPS and Apple tracking, but I see in flight radar (5X272) a cargo coming from Cologne to Warsaw this morning. My last hope
 
My status is still: October 29 - Cracow
