So in reference to obtaining a full tracking number. I contacted UPS International Shipment Department.

After reviewing, I was told Apple has created this label and the tracking number has been assigned. However, Apple has not shipped out the order yet. It is not under UPS possession, not yet tendered. Once it leaves the distribution warehouse and UPS gets a hold of the package the system will fully reveal the tracking number and it will not long be prohibited.

I was told to give a little bit more time. The waiting continues...

Sorry for the tangent but going through this UPS tracking thing really drives home how incredible the global cargo system has become so quickly. None of that system as it stands today would be possible without computers and the internet.

With that said, still no arrival scan into Louisville lol
 
Anyone in the EU with a Nov 5th shipping estimate seeing preparing for shipment?

I’ve ordered two 14“ MBP like 10 minutes apart. One estimated for Oct 29th and the other for Nov 5th. Both are preparing for shipment now and I’m getting my hopes up I’ll have mine sooner than expected.

No one knows. Fingers are crossed you get yours sooner than expected :)

Are you seeing any other packages? I find it weird that it says delivered. I feel like it should say shipping or on the way

I don't see any other packages but I think the UPS has a glitch. Hopefully, it gets updated soon. I was assured by UPS that is the correct UPS Tracking #.
 
It seems like BTO orders are going into PTS early as they are shipped from direct from China. Hopefully it does arrive earlier than expected though.

I wonder if there is anyone in Australia with 26-Oct delivery date. Mine got updated today and got billed for 28-Oct delivery after days of no movement.

It does appear like we have to wait a couple days after everyone else probably due to how bad local shipping is at the moment. However Apple is very accurate with the delivery times and it's almost guaranteed we'll get them on Thursday.
 
Greetings Folks,

It is 12:11 AM in Las Vegas, Nevada. It's past midnight now.

Today was an interesting day. I'm happy to report folks that were traveling from China yesterday have been landed safely in Lousiville, Kentucky. Please expect to receive your arrival scan in the morning. I hope it takes place overnight tonight. Congratulations!!!

Second, I was finally able to find my own tracking number. Thanks to @darinzook for the tips. I also contacted UPS and they informed me at the moment Apple has possession of the package. UPS does have them in their hands. Once received the system will update it. Also, please refer to this post #3,323. Thank you @Yazeed-IX.

We have less than 3 days left. I really hope we see some sort of a movement or an activity. Rest assured, Monday is going to be a crazy day and as long you are promised an Oct 26 delivery by Apple. You will receive your package on that day. Have a wonderful night and sleep well.

This waiting is bound to be over soon. Get ready to be amazed!

For now... the waiting saga continues...

I wonder which route the EU shipments take. Usually, we get a DHL Express tracking number one day before delivery with the package being shipped from Poland. The route to Poland is never made public.

Also our earliest arrival date is Oct 29th. And in Austria we are more out of luck: Oct 26th where you could buy one at the Apple Store or try it/see it there is Austria's national holiday ?

In Eu, Does overnight shipment happen a day before or you folks are able to see in 2-3 days in advance?

I am also quite curious. I usually order my Apple products in the states, but this year I have to order while in Germany. The smaller stuff (e.g., AirPods Pro/Max, etc) is shipped from Poland, as was mentioned. One usually gets the tracking info a day or two in advance. But I guess MBPs might be a little different, especially the BTO orders.

Chances are very high we might receive a shipment update tomorrow. If not Monday, for sure. Fingers are crossed.
 
So for people in EU it will be on Monday.
Hopefully, but not necessarily. Quite often we don't receive it on day one as far as I remember. I ordered my MBP 2-3 minutes after it went live via the Apple Store app (the website was still down for me). Earliest was Oct 29th to Nov 4th as estimate for CTO at least. But I keep my fingers crossed :)
