Same issue as others. Arrived in ZZ 10/29. Last update was 11/1. No movement.
Edit: Not familiar with the city, I looked it up. Does anyone know why UPS lists the city with two capital Z's? Google and wikipedia do not. It's particularly interesting given there is no space between them, so the capital Z for Zhou jumped out at me.

I stand corrected, it was delivered today!! Woohoo! I thought there was no hope without a scan being loaded onto a delivery truck. Years of waiting and it’s finally here!! This was a 14” BTO SG with 10/16/16 and 32 GB RAM, ordered on the night it launched with initial window of Nov 5-9. 2 days early, I’ll take it! I’m now wishing luck to all those waiting for their new Pro babies!!Nice grats!!
Mine made it to “Processing at UPS Facility” in my local city at 9:21am local time. Then I got a text saying it is coming today between 1 and 4pm. But my tracking doesn’t say that it’s loaded onto truck for delivery yet.
Sadly, unless it's in your city or you are in Anchorage it won't make it today. But weird to see no updates still.
Wow, I bet that was cool to listen to! I am still holding out hope ours were on one of those flights to KY but they are just delayed in reporting the scans as others including @TheYayAreaLiving have pointed out. Crossing fingers we get an update soon although I do think hope is fading for yours to come today. But still crossing fingers nonetheless. I hope our MBP's have found each other in the pallet and are having a blast on their travels.
I got it! 14” M1max 64gb 1TB BTO. Transferring from my 2020 13” using migration assistance.
We will know they got on the airplane WiFi and we’re having a party if the batteries are low when they arrive… look for odd SSIDs and Bluetooth pairings…
I just chatted with UPS and they don’t provide any information about what airplane the unit is on. Someone obviously has it, but the chat person apparently did not.
Are all items going to Louisville first, or only for east coast destinations?

The batteries that are in the 💻 are very efficient. You can easily go one full week without charging your Mac. Plenty of battery power
All shipment goes to Louisville, KY. From there it gets distributed. The reason why because of the custom clearance and all, International shipment.
Or 14 hours with heavy usage. 😅 not good enough, sending mine back lol.The batteries that are in the 💻 are very efficient. You can easily go one full week without charging your Mac. Plenty of battery power
14 hours non stop of usage. Which is still very impressive!
Got it, thanks. Seems like Anchorage could handle customs, but there are way more flights out of Louisville.
Do we know the typical turnaround in Louisville? I assume it’s hard to tell because departing flights are all over the schedule.
I wouldn't think it would take very long? I searched through this thread quickly to see if anyone uploaded a screenshot of their orders arriving, but couldn't find anything. Was going to use their timeframe to extract US Custom Clearance rate haha
Assuming that my order was on UPS91, they landed in 11:13am in Kentucky EDT (UTC -4). So counting forward from that, the earliest flight to my city hub leaves from Kentucky at 3:49pm. That would give them roughly 4.5 hours to unload, load, do customs clearance. I'm not sure if that's enough time, those packages still have to be sorted in their facility for each state. If it were to arrive by today, those would be some crazy lighting speed LOL 😬
Where did you listen to Alaska Air Traffic Control? I'd be interested in listening to that even though my Macbook is still stuck in ZhengZhou.
Sure 😆
This is the website I used: Live ATC
Alaska
Air Traffic Control Tower: PANC Live Listen
Kentucky
Kentucky Air Traffic Control Tower: KSDF Ground Traffic Control Tower Live Listen
UPS

SAME! Still no update on my UPS tracking 😑
The plane stops in Anchorage, Alaska for fueling to Louisville, KY.
Correct! Louisville, KY is the final shipment hub. It’s also UPS’s motherland. You will get a clear idea once you see that “Import Scan”. That is the final clearance ensuring your package is set to arrive to you. You just have to track the flights that are going on your way.

Yep, my 16" is stuck at the same spot - and UPS changed my delivery date from tomorrow to today, but there has been no movement. It said it will arrive by 7pm, but I typically get packages by noon - which was 4 hours ago, so I am assuming UPS will update the ETA back to tomorrow, again!
The only thing I can think of, which would be absolutely crazy to happen with UPS...
... is if they made the flight as normal, got into PANC, realized that they forgot a pallet (or more), and had to fly back to get it because they already had their departure scan.
In fact, thinking about it, I'm wondering if that actually was the case. Nothing wrong with the flight, no diversions, or anything at all; they simply forgot to load additional cargo that had their departure scan. If that's the case.... how embarrassing. 😨
BL.
I wish I could find a laptop that could do that! I'm using my laptop between 30-40 hours per week, half of that time in editing photos and videos. If I was away from the desk, no way the battery could last that long. At the desk I leave it plugged in. While on travel, I have a DC generator I use to power the equipment while camping and editing (when not on battery power).The batteries that are in the 💻 are very efficient.

I have the same issue with my government discount. I've pre-ordered literally everything in that store including M1 machines last year - so this makes no sense.
Yes, ordered this morning.Yay! Did you place your order in already? I can’t wait till I receive mine
I got a shipment notification this morning from PicasoLab that my leather sleeve should be here by Friday. I can’t wait! 🥰 I’ll post picks when it gets here. Yay!Yay! Did you place your order in already? I can’t wait till I receive mine
For all those people stuck in ZhengZhou with me, don't expect it this week. According to UPS, it's in customs awaiting release, will be 2 days from then. Monday would be earliest to see it. Very disappointing, Apple needs to be better at this...
