So when a ups 237 plane lands, this one being roughly 8ish, do some peoples orders status normally change? Is that what normally happens or not??

Not immediately. Give them some time to sort the shipments. This could take two hours, or tomorrow morning

Thanks! Is it worth the price?

It did when I first bought it (last year) as it used to keep me updated about all my flights and it was always accurate and had instant notifications.

It doesn't feel the same in the past few weeks. Sometimes it would think a flight never took off, and sometimes it takes off but never lands. And also it started sending delayed notifications. So not really sure.

As far as I know, they go from China -> Korea -> Anchorage, U.S. -> Louisville, U.S. -> Philadelphia, U.S. -> UK.

Wow. Well that sounds environmentally unfriendly.

But I guess there's all the packaging and other parts which don't necessarily need to be assembled in China.

The watch itself is made and packaged in China as far as I know, only some of the bands which are manufactured somewhere else in the world. According to  website the Leather Loop band is handmade in Arzignano, Italy.

So because I ordered the Leather Loop watch, the band will be first made in Italy, sent to China for watch attachment and packaging then to the U.S. And finally the UK.

So a Leather Loop order goes almost 360 all around earth. Environment friendly, not.

Gaa. There must be a better way of doing things...

Im sure the way Apple do it and the volume in which they do it helps cut down their cost and maximise profits. So whatever way Apple think is more cost effective they will do, hence use China to do most of the hard work because its cheap.
