I'm in Reno and was hoping my phone would be on this flight or one to Oakland but it's still sitting in Kentucky according to UPS/iShip :mad:
 
I'm in Greenville, SC and my phone departed Louisville at 3:15. Anyone know what flight it's on?

There is another flight from KY to Orlando at 5:41PM. Either one works for me haha

I don't remember seeing that flight before. I wonder if they added because the 4:26 PM plane filled up. They could just have a stock of planes there and be filling them up and one when for a particular destination fills up, they start a new one. That's a funny thought although I am sure a gross simplification of the logistics process.

Well, the only thing I can say to anyone who's phone hasn't moved in the past few hours... give up all hope, you'll never get it now, Apple has a strict policy, if it's not on it's way to you by 5pm EST, it must be destroyed.

I am sorry. :(

I'll be the first to admit that its pathetic, but I credit it to:

A) Boredom at work
B) Fascination with being able to track a single box to a specific location on Earth from any computer.

No flights showing up for SC. Same for me here in NC, so I think that they are coming via ground to us.

I'm in Columbia, my new MBP battery came today and it stopped over in Greensboro and Charlotte, maybe it'll catch a flight over to one of those stops...8.5 hours in a truck from Louisville to Columbia
 
Mine shows departed at 3:59 KY time.

Haven't checked flights to LA so assuming its on it's way here

----------

Must be flight 2920. Took off at 4:11
 
I'm in Atlanta and my departure scan of 2:08pm out of Kentucky makes a decent match to a flight to Des Moines, Iowa that departed at 2:07pm and landed already. lol! I doubt it'd head that direction so I assume it was just scanned early and will be on one of these Florida flights and get trucked/flown north to GA. Or, could it possibly be trucked directly from Kentucky (only Tennessee between us)? :confused:

Hmmm. Either way, it's been a fun ride reading this forum.

EDIT: Interesting. On iship, my 'In Transit to' scan says the city of my local hub in GA, not FL or something else in between.

Not really. They have a schedule of flights they publish well in advance (30 days). Since they knew this rush was coming, they may have scheduled a couple extra flights, but that's it. Holiday time they really beef things up. But commercial carries (people or freight) don't just leave on the whim. Good ole air traffic management :)

I get more tracking info from Yahoo (http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/advisor/business-tools/ups-tracking/) then from the UPS site. All though I don't see any flights to San Diego, it must be coming through Oakland or Long Beach.
