Ordered at 8:08am on 9/13, still no shipping notification for me.
If you got 9/20 ship date when you ordered, you’ll get it on 9/20 unless some issues with UPS.

you might not get “shipped” email from Apple until Wed or Thurs, very common.

Yeah, the times tend to jump around, but your group with those times should be Wave 1 and then the rest of us with a 9/20 delivery date that are still waiting to get tracking numbers should be in Wave 2, but like I said, the two groups should merge in Anchorage and will travel to Louisville together. :) There might even be a Wave 3, who knows. :)
Agree. Doesn’t really matter when they get stateside, they all have to wait to clear customs, get scanned in Louisville, and then come home to us. I know very few instances when they didn’t arrive on the promised date.

I heard from last years thread for the iPhone 15 that if you call ups customer service and provide them the reference number they will give you the full tracking number. Has anybody had luck trying that? My choice for me is out of the question.

How did you get shipment release authorized? I live in a very rural area where the gate is about 300’ from my front door. I leave the gate open for the driver but my POS new driver won’t let me know when he’s at my gate and won’t come to my door so I get the dreaded Sorry we missed you message, even though I’m sitting by the front door. I really don’t want to sit out by the gate all day waiting for him.
 
For those of you on the iPhone Upgrade Program, do you recall when the trade in box usually comes and what that process looks like? I leave the country for two weeks the day after I am supposed to get my 16PM and I know we only have like two weeks to ship it back. Wondering if I’m going to have to pay a coworker to handle that for me.
It usually comes a few days after the phone and the notification looks like a regular Apple package. First time I was confused what was coming from Apple as I hadn’t ordered anything else. Then once you’ve made sure all your data is transferred to the new phone, if you’re not going to set up the new phone as new, you wipe the old phone, Remove it from your account, . i , put it in the little box with none of its accessories, and send it back using the label already attached to the box, under the label they used to ship it to you. A few days later you get a message that
your return is complete. Easy peasy.
 
I was so tempted to upgrade my AW 8 to the new 10 but read that the 9 and 10 don’t have the O2 sensor and I use that a lot. So decided to keep my 8, which is working perfectly.
 
Tracking finally showed up in UPS mychoice. have tracking for both watch and 16pro max deser titanium 512gb. Right now tracking for watch is just a label. Been that way since Friday which makes me think possibly my Hermes 46mm is in the US already…

9 had sensor when you bought it early. 10 does not and unless Apple settles that lawsuit it will never have it until 2030 when the something expires. Can’t remember if it’s an embargo but I read somewhere it expired in 2030.

Hmmm, so just curious, everyone that got a tracking number this morning, what part of the country are you in? I was thinking these numbers are being issued by final destination, but it looks like a few of us in MO don't have it yet and LA either. So is it more the East coast that got numbers first?

My problem is that I get the iPhone on the 20th and leave for England on the 21st and will be gone during the entire 14 day window to return the old device. 🤷🏼‍♂️
