Has anyone's gone from Memphis to Indianapolis and then onto their destination city?

Mine departed Memphis at 4:15 PM and there are no MEM-STL flights today. A MEM-IND flight departed at 4:42 PM. I wonder if my package is on that flight, or if the timing is a coincidence. I'm hoping they just put my computer on a truck and are driving it to STL, it's only a 5 hour drive and would be here in time to go out for delivery tomorrow.
 
Here, check out this post because your order will probably merge with equipment or giftcard in NL, or CZ.

Awesome! Thanks.

Yeah, it's a gift card and one Ethernet Thunderbold adapter in there somewhere. :)

Edit: So I could find the flight number and see where the plane is? Internet is amazing, indeed. Will arrive in NL in a few hours so hopefully I'll get my Macbook on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Base rMBP + 16GB in the 7-10 day group and just switched to Preparing for Shipment like many others have in the past few hours. Got the 2-3 day shipping so hopefully it doesn't prepare for long.

Depending on the carrier you can use:

flighttracker.com or flightaware.com

Mine is departing in about 30min with China Southern Cargo to FFM.

Hehe, feels like we're taking parcel tracking to a different level here. :)
 
When do you think it will ship?

Dunno the estimates are too far out right now. It looks like the 5-7 days shipments have already gone out and will be delivered to people's houses early this week. Also, Apple is starting to ship the 7-10 days estimates now. By mid-late week we'll have a better idea what's going on with the 2-3 week and 3-4 week ranges. Maybe as store models become far more available, a lot of online orders will be canceled speeding up the entire process.

All this to say, right now it is anyone's guess. One thing is clear though, the estimates seem to be very conservative and most people are seeing their products far earlier than anticipated.

Yeah I never thought we could get so much detail and even anticipate the flights and schedules before they appeared on FedEx's own tracking website. It's crazy what we can do nowadays.
 
anyone order friday or saturday receive any information about probable delay? I ordered mine saturday, spilled beer on my current laptop, mother board is slowly frying even after cleaning it.

Let it dry for a good day or two and don't use it in between that time frame. Also, when you say you cleaned it, did you disassemble the entire thing and clean the parts carefully?
 
Mine departed memphis 24 hours ago. Probably going by horse and carriage to Orlando.

I assume it comes in to Orlando International and then goes out to the local distribution centers from there. Any idea if this is correct?

I'm in the 2-3 week group but just curious to see what I can anticipate.

I'm over in Seminole county, so my distribution center is in Longwood.
 
As of 5:11 PM, Eastern time, my MBPR has left Memphis. There don't seem to be any flights from Memphis to Calgary today, so maybe it's actually coming to Toronto. Still don't think it can clear customs in time to be delivered tomorrow, but I can't see it arriving on Wednesday like the FedEx site says.

Lol, I'm a computer Engineering major(senior next year), I know what I needed to do, but this has been a 4 month decline, its just been more rapid the past couple of weeks. I'm not so much looking to fix the computer at this point, as hoping it'll last till I get the new one.
 
Ordered Tuesday. Here is my update status.

How is that possible? I ordered minutes after the store reopened on Monday, same configuration, and it says that it will be delivered July 10-23. You ordered a day later and you have an earlier delivery time?

Yes that sounds right. His order was probably on FDX358 that landed 30 minutes ago. There are multiple flights regularly to Orlando from Memphis.

That makes sense since at 5pm FDX132 left Memphis going to Toronto. It's landing any minute now, so maybe you'll have an update in 30-40 minutes?

Usually yeah, atleast that's my previous experience with central florida fedex packages.
Just a bit worried since it's 24 hours since it departed. I want it tomorrow :(
