I got a quick question. Does the Apple online store allow for hotel shipping? I'm going to be in New York in November and was wondering if I could purchase an iPhone 11 Pro through Apple's online store and ship it to the hotel that I will be staying at.

In nyc you can do same day courier delivery from any of the apple stores for $9. A guy will bring the phone to your address.
So you can buy someone on the apple app, choose courier delivery and get it a few hours later.
 
First time in pre-ordering, I am traveling to three destinations for work the next 10 days so I am picking up three items in three different Apple store locations! LOL All three orders show “Order in Progress”.

Yes they do, I’ve done it myself a couple of times.
 
That’s weird I find this whole process where everyone gets different results very confusing!

Well I don’t know if the UPS Website is a little misleading. I downloaded the UPS app and was able to see it that way. But on the website, it doesn’t show it yet.
 
Have to admit I didn’t read every page of this forum so sorry if this is a duplication. Thought I’d post this in case some of you don’t have this info.

If your phone status has changed to "Shipped", you can view the invoice on the Apple site.

That invoice has the serial number on it.


Go to Apple.com, then pick the ORDERS page (the little "shopping bag" icon at the far right on the home page... go to your orders page). Now, log in, and find your iPhone order... and click on Print All Invoices to see your shiny new iPhone serial number.


You can look up the week of manufacture and factory here, using the serial number:

Links for tracking:

https://www.fedex.com/apps/fedextrack/?action=altref&cntry_code=us


Another way to find it, enter your phone number + zip:

https://www.villagedrapes.com/html/tracking.html


If your phone number isn’t working for UPS tracking, use your order number but subtract the last two numbers/letters. Say your order number is: W123456789, you'd put in: W1234567 - make sure to use the tracking by reference feature.


Flight info:

When you see the time that your flight leaves China (make sure that the UPS or FedEx info is showing it per China time, or do the math), and you can usually narrow it down.
