How do you find the actual flight numbers? I see many people posting their flight numbers. I found a site that shows UPS flights, but how are people finding out which flight it is???
 
I made a guess that your iPhone was held up in Louisville like most phones, and that you live in LAX based on your Profile, if that is true, and your iPhone has been scanned for Departure and is in route as we speak it is on this flight:

http://www.flightstats.com/go/Fligh...5X&flightNumber=2920&departureDate=2011-10-13

Which Departed at 4:10 Eastern time and is scheduled to land @ LAX around 5:02 PM

Mine left Anchorage at 11:40AM (At least that is the UPS Scan) I didn't see any flights that left at that time.

Oakland, CA, United States 10/13/2011 4:32 P.M. Arrival Scan

Only a matter of time now. Tomorrow can't come soon enough!
 
Mine states that it's in transit from Louisville to Lincoln, NE (the sort facility) and left around 3:30 p.m. I'm thinking maybe it didn't leave, just left the warehouse on a pallet waiting for the 4:30 am UPS flight to Omaha tomorrow morning? Gets into Omaha around 5 am CST, then trucked to Lincoln and put out for delivery? I'm saying a prayer for no thunderstorms or mechanical issues for that ONE flight to Omaha. Otherwise I suppose it could have been trucked to Lincoln or Omaha? It's about a 12 hour trip. Not a whole lot of margin for error, but I also have another package waiting to join it in Louisville that's now just leaving from a Zappos warehouse in CA!

Our iphones are on the same flight from Louisbille to Omaha! So I hope there are not issues either! :D
 
I live in the Memphis area and my shipment was in Louisville, KY and supposively the flight landed on-time a couple of hours ago. Do you think I'll get the delivery in the morning or afternoon run? Not sure how UPS decides which packages are sorted for AM or PM deliveries. I really need the phone by 2:30 tomorrow.

Due to all the time zone changes it will vary. I think this is our flight:

if ups updates in the next hour then I'm sure it is it. There will be a lot of shifting around tonight so I would grab some sleep and wake up tomorrow with an enroute update to perk you up.
 
flight number of the one going to vancouver? is there? my phone departed at 16:45 from alaska.
 
I'm in Northern Virginia and my 4S departed KY at 12:23 PM and has not been given an arrival scan. I guess they are scanning a boat load of phones tonight. Anyone know where it lands if its going to NOVA/DC?

Closest airport I've found is Harrisburg, PA? If so, don't they have to scan it before it leaves?

PA takes at least a couple hours to get here by truck, they better have it out before 2AM so they can process it at my local sorting facility!
 
Im In Reading, PA. (Near Philly), My Package Departed from Louisville at 2:30pm this afternoon. No Arrival scan! I've been trying to find a plane, Can't find one. Oh well :p

:confused::eek:
