It wouldn't hurt to get in touch with Apple via an App and ask them if express shipping is available for you. Maybe they can honor it. Many people here had success with it. Let them know what happened and they will make it right.
One step ahead of you! I called on Friday and the CSR was very nice and changed it to Express Delivery. Still, no change of dates or change in status to even preparing for shipment... just odd is all.
 
I think I'm mostly caught up now! I just noticed I'm now a "macrumors 6502" 🎉. I guess this is based on how many posts I've done?

I had an excellent everything bagel egg, turkey, cheddar & avocado sandwich today for lunch!

It seems that everyone's mood today is way better now that we mostly all have tracking numbers. :D
Nice lunch! Love it. Straight NY style. The best.

Congratulations on your rank. I remember last year when you move up in rank. You were so excited. History is repeating itself again today. Almost a year later. Congrats, again!!! Yes, it is based on how many posts you have done. Ayeeee, I hit a major milestone today too. I made it to top 10, finally!

Apple site's order status won't flip to "Shipped" with Tracking info until they clear customs in the US - usually Wed/Thurs. All of the tracking you are reading about now until then is based on UPS updates and synching them with flight arrival/departures of UPS planes.
Thanks! How do you see this on UPS? I have a UPS account but nothing shows on there. TY
 
I’m expecting wave 1 and 2 to move at the same time when they board the plane or whatever the next step is.
I hope so too but Wave 1 is ahead of us when it comes to the system scanning and batching. They are almost 24 hours ahead of us. It would be ideal if we all depart all together instead of catching different planes.
 
I can't wait for the review videos
I believe they typically post the iPhone review videos the Wednesday before Friday's release date. So we should expect to see them on the 14th. My guess is AirPods Pro 2 and Apple Watch reviews will either be the day before or the day after the iPhone reviews hit.

You are #1 in reaction score by a mile! Congrats and thanks for the great job you are doing wrangling us this year!

Yes. As said elsewhere we will all be delivered on the 16th so will blend eventually whether on the plane or at the USA UPS hub. I’m assuming anyway.

Wasn’t home at the time (was in school) but saw it happen live and couldn’t get home for a while that day cause I lived so close by and the trains were shut down. When I got home, though, I could see the plume of smoke from my window for a while. Something I’ll never forget.

What’s crazy is the weather that day was the most perfect, ever. And not one single cloud in the sky.

I was living in DC and my junior high school was across the river from the Pentagon. I was in the bathroom looking out the window at the planes taking off from the airport when I saw the plane hit the Pentagon. I was so scared and freaked out and had a panic attack. I had nightmares for months because of that, and it took over 6 hours for me to get home. They made us shelter in the bomb shelter and no one in my family could get to me. My cell phone stopped working as well. My father immediately transferred me to the junior high school close to our house. I have these 2 huge 3 binder notebooks with newspaper clippings and other things from 9/11.

Thank you. It's all because of all YOU. So thank you so much and I appreciate it.

But I am an addict and glued to this site all the time. 🤯
