I did the in-store pickup on the iPhone 6 release. Showed up the evening of the release after driving almost two hours to get to the nearest Apple Store, just to find out they cut off the line because it was too long. I had to turn around and come back the next morning. I'm not doing that again...no way. Haha.
This is why I don't think that Apple CS reps have any more clue than us as to when we might receive our orders. LOL
The map I'm looking at shows quite a few flights going to Louisville from Anchorage. It doesn't say where they originated, and I know that Louisville is a huge hub for UPS so it could be anything, but it's possible...
Makes me wonder how many orders they receive in a second...
Mine was at 3:03:32 confirmed email and was charged this morning at 4AM but was still at processing still at 10PM.
I just hope they'll be an onslaught of planes coming in next 48 hours so some charges can be done. Hope I'll be able to get mine by next Friday. This waiting is brutal.
I've forwarded my email multiple times and tried viewing it from a few different apps and browsers but don't see the seconds. I'm isong Gmail. What am I missing?
I'll be sure to let them know to have MacRumors provide them with screenshots of your idiotic posts for their case. Go find a real hobby buddy.
Lol you ever been to a real life court room? They wouldn't give you the time of day friend.
Face it, there really is no recourse.
You've seen here it folks. Look at the other threads. If you purchased a 42 mm Watch with Black sport band, you're screwed!
I don't know why they wouldn't have a ton of watches ready Sunday night/Monday morning. A few people in the past day said that Apple told them the warehouses and factories don't close, so they should be very stockpiled by the end of the weekend, I would think. And there are still many UPS flights going from Anchorage to Louisville, so I think the changes are pretty great for many of us early folks to receive something at least by Monday.
I'm almost certain Apple legal is working at this very moment wondering how they will combat the airtight legal case that you have against them.
Early in the morning. It shows them arriving from 12:35 a.m. to 8:39 a.m. EST. Again, these could be planes for anything, seeing as how massive UPS is, but it's a chance.
If you want to keep track yourself, visit the website below. It will show images of where the planes are in the air, and below will tell you where they departed from, where they are going and when they are scheduled to arrive. The US Apple Watches seem to be the China to Anchorage to Louisville flights.

I was this morning at 4AM on my AMEX
Watch ordered: 42 MM SS BSB

EOD: Yes
Order Status: still processing As of 10PM
CC: Charged @ 4AM AMEX
So someone on another thread asked how many Apple Watches would fit on a plane. I figured the last iPhone launch would be a good place to start, so I Googled it and found a website that said one 747 which was flying some iPhone 6 pallets before launch held 195,000. I don't know how to compare that to the watches, but gives you an idea that they can hold quite a bit of cargo. Just food for thought!
Nope. That is not true. Just patiently wait until 5/8. Apple will deliver on their timetables. They're good at making their delivery commitments. So unless there is some sort of serious production issue then they will be good on their dates.
Btw, I'm just having some fun on the forum. I'm a major Apple Enthusiast. I consider them to be the best company in the world and an American company at that. While I wait for my order, I'm hanging out on the forum from time to time just because misery loves a little company. But don't sweat, Apple will get our watches to us. When we ordered on 4/10, they did give us a delivery window of 4/24 - 5/8 so let's give them that time. Try not to get so wrapped up and serious in checking out flight schedules and trying to predict what planes carries what and to where. That's crazy! Enjoy life. Have fun.
And that being said, I bid you all a good night.
