10 minutes til the Dubai-Cologne flight lands!

Touchdown! Now lets see if we can an Arrivals scan, then a Departure Scan just before the 1am flight 5x236 to Stansted :D

----------

How did you find that?

Click the flight link, and there his a history of all the flights. Click on each one to 'play back' the route, and it gives the time of day along with the date :)
 
The iPhone has landed! (in Colonge..)

From online ordering to going through the processing and dispatch phases to delivery what sort of times scales are people experiencing?
 
Probably a little annoying for some online order folks, but may be useful for others; the Trafford Centre store has a 'reasonable' amount of 32gb and 64gb Space Greys in stock, just strolled in and picked up the 32gb version - happy days :)
 
So hopefully, if my phone leaves at approximately 2:00 AM tomorrow morning, it should arrive at Stansted at around 3:00 AM, leaving approximately 2-3 hours to get to Eastleigh depot. It should do it!
 
Ive dealt with UPS man times before. They are usually very good a getting items to and from places and often go "out for delivery" later in the day to ensure they keep them flowing.

All UK info is welcome in this thread! Do you know if that's stock that's just arrived or if it's the stock they started the day with?

Anyone know what stock is like at Birmingham Bull Ring or Solihull Touchwood? I was happy to wait a few weeks but now as EE have transferred my number to a Nano SIM (which isn't what I wanted - I wanted the SIM in readiness and to activate it myself!) I'm in need of a 5S with some urgency. Failing that I need a Nano to Micro SIM convertor - do most high street carrier stores sell these?

pop in to EE, they might have an adapter in store. I think Three do as well.

I went to the Bullring one on Monday, there was a sign at the entrance saying they're completely sold out of every colour and capacity and an employee told me they don't know when they'll get a delivery, tried a few carphone warehouse stores there too, a few had some 32 and 64 models, didn't ask what colours though.

OK, thanks for the update. I was hoping that some of the stock coming into the UK would also be filtering into the Apple Stores as well as being personal orders. As for CPW, I'd rather use my old iPhone 3G than buy a phone from them!
 
10 minutes til the Dubai-Cologne flight lands!

I'm waiting on this too, big up airplane mode ahaha! I really hope this could deliver by weekend instead of Monday because of work!

When do you think it will update on the UPS site if the flight has already landed? - would be cool to see Germany before going to bed :p

It's anyones guess, but presumably soon.

Further updates as to whether its actually going to move to the UK likely won't come until the early hours of the morning though, so not really much more that can be determined.
