FINALLY..departed Fed Ex at 4:24 pm. I have no clue how to find it on flight ware or whatever it is you all are using
My family flies United, for no particular reason other than our airport is a major hub for them and they are often the cheapest. We had this fantastic flight attendant whom put my nervous flyer of a wife at ease with just the safety announcement. He was quite humorous. So now when we fly she is on a mission to get this guy again.
How is everybody tracking their phones through FlightAware??
Those of you picking yours up at a UPS hub ... are you usually there to pick it up in the early AM right when they open, or does it sometimes take a little while? I'd like to go before work ideally right at 8 am, but I have no idea if it'll be off the truck and scanned in.
i will get there at 0830 when they open. It is only about 5 mins from where I drop the kids off for school so not bad

Look for the origin to be where your tracking says departed, and then from there, try and deduct the closest destination to where the final destination is (your address)
for example, i live in northeastern ohio. all flights out of kentucky were either going somewhere west, or to one of two places in new york. so i followed both those flights. tracking will update which one it was on when it gets scanned in and says its location. then, i wait until it says departed again, and look for a flight going from that airport to somewhere even closer to me.
none of this is necessary, but its fun.
Mine left Louisville at 3:14 PM allegedly, but I don't see an applicable UPS flight! I'm in Georgia so I'd think they're sending it to Hartsfield-Jackson, but you never know.
Provided you have it held now, opposed to waiting for a delivery attempt and then having it held, you should get a status change that it was completed on your tracking info. I can't go until lunch anyways, I will likely be ready by then. I read somewhere on hear a couple of people had lines first thing and some went around noon to no lines. YMMV

Search for the airport where it left from (departure scan) and look for the FedEx or UPS departure going to your nearest major city that left shortly after the time listed by the shipper.
Mine (6s+ 64gb space gray) left Louisville at 4:47 en-route to Miami.

Im wondering if anything heading west is pushed back since you're flying against the clock and essentially gaining time so they can wait a little longer.
That's exactly what I did. There was only one flight coming to FL so I figured that must be the one my phone is on
Just found out that UPS only has one scheduled flight out of Philadelphia tonight. This is at 10:08pm to Louisville.
That means us Coatesville hostages will not see movement until then. Then it gets routed out from Louisville after that...
Flightstats.com does not have flights for 9/25 yet but if they are the same as today a whole bunch of flights go in the early hours from both locations.
