If you look at the flight history on the bottom there seems to be a flight that leaves oak like at around 2:30ish am and makes it to seattle at 3:30ish...so there might be one leaving later tonight thats not mentioned in flightaware
http://flightaware.com/live/flight/FDX85

That's probably it, for tonight. FedEx doesn't seem to fly into BFI/PAE, so everything in that area is likely going into SEA...
 
nope. if you look on your tracking info you should be expedited shipping, whether or not you paid for it.
UPS told me that they don't have standard shipping for any of their packages from China. also told me that there is nothing I could've done to have it shipped faster.

There is an awful lot they can do to slow it down.

There are few UPS routes into Canada from the US that aren't from SDF...see the end of the mini-FAQ in my sig concerning general UPS stuff. :)

Most Canadians will indeed go through SDF, though some on the West Coast may go through ONT.

My package landed in Memphis at 12:05AM - - is there enough time for it to be successfully transferred to this flight http://flightaware.com/live/flight/FDX1430 that leaves for SLC at 3:14AM? I have standard shipping and my estimated delivery isn't until Thursday, but FedEx wouldn't pass me up for a direct flight to my city from MEM right? If it gets on that flight it will land at 5:15 with plenty of time to be delivered today!

I give you a 50/50 chance. They seem to purposefully delay more with standard shipping, as it is; however, that's still just one day earlier than estimated, as you said, and we've seen plenty of packages delivered as such. (My own MBP got in a day early this morning, < 24 hours after leaving Shanghai...)

I called Apple about the delay, "I'm sorry sir, there is nothing we can do. Have you called UPS?

I just got off of the phone with UPS and they tell me that they are sorry I have been given wrong information as to my delivery dates ( the 16th, the 19th, the 20th, the 21st and the 22nd.) Now they say it won't be here until late Monday the 26th.

It sat on the ground in China for over 79 hours. More than three days!

It has been sitting around in Louisville all day.

I feel like taking this thing back. UPS is taking all the joy out of this.


Looks like someone will never track a package again!

You are probably right. I guess this is what happens when you are on hiatus.
 
I'm from the Toronto area, too. Ordered mine April 13th, 10am EST. Here's a rundown of UPS tracking enroute:

My MBP has just been sitting around days in Shanghai, then in Anchorage, and allllllllll day in Kentucky. I had a delivery date of Wednesday (April 21) but that date no longer shows up.

Twiddling my thumbs wondering. Hopefully our MBPs are together and on a speedy flight north to Toronto tonight.

I've had many many UPS shipments from all over. Sometimes they just don't communicate very well on their web tracker system. What might end up happening is they fly up to Toronto tonight, get confirmed/sorted, and dispatched to the smaller localized distribution locations early morning, and go out on a delivery truck to us.

Unless of course, UPS decides to move my delivery time back to the original Thursday time, as stated much earlier on in shipping tracking last week.

I AM IN THE SAME BOAT!! I'm from just outside of Toronto. I kept hoping that it would get here early!! I'm super dorky and was DREAMING about my beautiful new machine! Wish I'd used Mac earlier...

I'll bet you it doesn't come tomorrow... but if it doesn't come by Thursday, I'm going to be SUPER irritated!!

If it's sitting in Louisville on the 20th there is no reason for it to take 6 more days. Ask for a supervisor and ask why? There's flights every day, tomorrow for example....

Depends a little on where you're at. But, most FedEx and UPS will deliver by the time they promise it. What most of us are griping about is that they hold it until the original date of delivery even if it's sitting in their warehouse for a day or two.

We've seen quite a few deliveries a day earlier than the estimated delivery date...including my own that made it to me in the Boston area < 24 hrs after finally leaving Shanghai!

Are you expedited or not, and whereabouts in MD are you? It's possible you may have been on FDX1951 EWR-IAD. Sometimes it takes up to a few hours for those scans to update... You may have been put on a truck in Newark, especially if not expedited; it's possible you'll see a delivery today, but it may not be until tomorrow...

No it wasn't expedited. I am near DC though. That's exciting that you received it earlier! Hopefully I will too, even though it doesn't matter because I ordered two computers and me and my friend are going to open them together on Friday.. so that would just be another tantalizing day knowing that I physically have a computer and I can't mess with it!
 
Thanks again.

No, some machines came PVG-MEM on FDX90 having departed on Apr 19. It's still unknown whether we'll see more PVG-MEM; it may be that they used that flight on Monday since PVG-MEM runs Mon-Sat, and PVG-ANC only runs Tue-Sat. See the mini-FAQ in my sig for more info...



I'm still curious about all the various inbound ones...so I'll at least continue to follow the thread until tomorrow and gather more flight info so I can update my mini-FAQ post. There are a bunch of new routes that have been seen that aren't covered properly there, since it's obvious that many machines are going PVG-ANC via a hidden middle hop in Asia (seemingly NRT or ICN), without a scan there. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions about FlightAware or other such things!



Awesome find. This shows Asian flights; I can use that to match up the ambiguous flights with Asian connections. I'm going to poke around there more and revise my flight suppositions...

...currently waiting for Migration Assistant to finish running, having just reinstalled. (Wanted to play with the machine first. Kinda sucks that you can't run Migration Assistant if you go through the initial setup and used the same username.)

My applestore stats finally updated to show Prepared For Shipment which happened about two hours ago, but as I've seen here in these posts that that doesn't really mean anything until you get some tracking info.
So I'll just kick back and wait til I can use your shipping info as a reference.
And while I'm waiting I'll continue to bombard applestore with questions about my order, they deserve it.

Dang. Looks like you were right. Flight left about 10 minutes ago and no activity on my package. Unless FedEx is slow to update... I wasn't on that flight and that erodes any possibility of it being delivered today. Heh... Better luck next time. Good night!
