track UPS flight #63 with all those iPhones that were just scanned in anchorage here

flight # 71, which I think is holding iPhones too is here

both are UPS planes coming from China to AK to KY...both arrive in KY w/in 30min of eachother. (Appx. arrival time 1:20AM EST & 10:20PM PST.)
#63 is a quad-jet
#71 is a tri-jet
 
In a little more than four hours, it will be midnight EDT. With my WinXP laptop for my left hand and my MacBook Pro 17 for the other, I can stay up all night checking the status of my iPhone 3G S and the 3.0 update on iTunes for my 3G. I'll bet this thread will still be going strong! :)

C'mon 3.0 update!!! I wonder how much money Apple will make in the next 72 hours??? :apple::D:apple:
 
Just called AT&T.

They said my iPhone will be shipping on FRIDAY and will be here by MONDAY or TUESDAY.
 
DELIVERY EXCEPTION: To be held until June 19th

THANK YOUUUUUUUUU

Everyone, that confirms it: The iPhone Will NNNNNNOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTT be delivered before. They will probably go to their destinations if it is to be believed they are to be held until the actual day (or they will catch their first flight out in the wee hours of the morning from louisville) and will arrive as scheduled.

I knew it. You will probably see a sticker on the box that says, DO NOT DELIVER UNTIL 6/19/09.

sorry, could not resist. :)

i did not get that message. i've just seen UPS do it too often. its still up for grabs if we get our iphones early....fret not. keep hitting those refresh buttons!!

Actually,

No. It is in the actual database at UPS each time it scans the package....

Some boxes might have Saturday Delivery stickers on them though if (GOD FORBID) they get delayed. Then Apple can push them to get delivered on the weekend if they choose....
 
Ya, why do people think Apple has so much power? They can't call up UPS and reroute planes, fabricate delays, and can't retroactively do anything after UPS sends it off without paying probably millions at this point.

And if you say that wasn't what you were saying...I don't care. I just want an iPhone.

UPS would most definitely make concessions to make a company like Apple happy! My understanding is that in the past, FEDEX made most of Apples deliveries, and surely UPS would like to make a retailer like Apple and ATT happy.
Goes like this:

APPLE: If we pay you $40,000,000.00 to deliver our phones, could you hold them at your central processing until Thursday, and send them out next day?

UPS: Sure we can!

Now they may come early, but if Apple wanted them delivered only on Friday, that's when they would be shipped.

thanks for the false info.

please try not to do that with a bunch of eager iphone awaiting bloggers!!!!!!!! :mad:
 
I too, wasted my whole Non-Work day.

Mine still says CH as it's last entry.

That was from like this morning!
Well which of the CH locations / scans did it stop at?

CHEK LAP KOK,HK 06/16/2009 11:14 P.M. ORIGIN SCAN 06/16/2009 7:49 P.M. DEPARTURE SCAN
SHENZHEN, CN 06/16/2009 2:32 A.M. ORIGIN SCAN CN 06/16/2009 1:19 A.M. BILLING INFORMATION RECEIVED​

My tracking number is working now. ATT in-store 6/9.

Says billing info has been received and billed/shipped on 6/17. So, hopefully will arrive at the store 6/18, but should make it Friday for sure. I'll be watching for departure scan. Since it says 6/17, I'm assuming this is also coming from China.
 
Finally, UPS has received the billing information on my iPhone shipment. This is one for AT&T in-store pickup.
 
UPS delivers on the weekend but not FedEx right?

Fedex actually does, but only on Overnight Shipments delivered before 10:30 (not the way Apple ships) or on time-critical or couriered packages.

UPS delivers on World Ease packages (UPS ships the iPhones to customers right now) and they are available at extra cost if Apple chooses to do so.
 
Can someone please post a pic of what their current tracking looks like via UPS? Anyone showing the "Departure Scan" from Alaska?

this apparently isn't showing on UPS.com

you should look to boxoh.com or packagemapping.com to see this.

ups doesnt always put each scan into their online tracking
 
What's the latest people have ordered from AT&T and gotten a tracking number? I ordered mine from them on the 11th and still don't have a tracking number on the ORder Status lookup... I'm beginning to get a little worried. :'(

Did you order from store, or from computer for home delivery?
 
UPS delivers on the weekend but not FedEx right?
UPS will only deliver on Saturday if the originator requested Saturday delivery option.

Saturday Delivery: Saturday delivery service is available for UPS Next Day Air and 2 Day Air shipment to most major metropolitan areas and from Canada to the United States. Also offered for UPS Worldwide Express Plus and UPS Worldwide Express for shipments to Canada, Germany, and the United Kingdom in major metropolitan areas.​
