Aw, thanks, that's really kind of you and same back at you, thanks for making and keeping this thread fun & useful!
Those videos are amazing, I watched them too and I was fascinated.
I wanted to use my gift card balance as part of my payment for the phone. I was told by a Rep on the online chat, I cannot do that.
Yeah we retired from the Air Force in September and had to buy a house in Tennessee. After the 5th house we overbid on, an offer was accepted. We paid $26K over asking...lol. I wasn't too sad because I knew it would all work out. We sold our house in Colorado Springs with a cash offer that was more than double what we paid in '09.
the amount of dedication and enthusiasm in tracking a phone for a week even tho you know it's coming on the 16th is why Apple customers are the best. amazing to witness
The pilot should have just dropped my iPhone when it was above Chicago lol
Don't forget, Mr Wolfs passive aggressively ordered his late to prove the point that he didn't care. Well that makes 2 of us-about his phone
if they could get Coke Zero my life would be complete
For those still "stuck" in ZZ...it's not very clear what the outbound flight is going to be but there's a China Postal 737 freighter scheduled at 115AM (local) to Incheon. That's a small aircraft for as much volume as there is, but it's still quite possible given the short-haul nature of this segment that they're just flying higher frequencies.
I don't see any 747 freighter cargo inbound for ZHCC, so unless there's just no flight plan for those (not outside the realm of possibility, but I also checked all Atlas, UPS, and China Postal 747 birds and they're not on any obvious routes that would make sense to take them to ZHCC in the near future), so this is my best guess as to how they'll start the transit over.
Of course, there's always the possibility UPS has a position-only flight of their own metal or chartered metal from Atlas, etc.
CF221 is the flight number.

That wouldn’t surprise me one bit! $5.99 might cover some insignificant cost to UPS, but we’ve definitely proven for them that people are thinking twice about doing it. To your initial point, either way—UPS wins. But I still can’t wrap my head around how either of the major providers are able to (mostly) accomplish these deliveries each year with so many little boxes going from China to the US, and then delivered to a bunch of people on the same day.
13 minutes til landing in Louisville
Down to 10 thousand feet from 30 K plus
Oh I see. Yes I am. And I meant was they honored my request without charging me for a fee to hold the package at my local UPS CC hub
i've read its their patented h2o filter system
We are a part of Wave 2B or Not 2B lol but seriously, our wave of iPhones should see movement today and there is no reason to panic just yet.
I think that's based on the larger packaging from the 2016 phones. It's definitely closer to 150,000 than the 600,000 number (that's more An-124 type numbers and UPS is not contracting those AFAIK and it would make no sense economically as those are not only high volume, but also heavy-lift a/c, and ULD containers full of iPhones are more a volume-constrained cargo than a weight-constrained cargo, anyway).
My somewhat-educated guess is somewhere above in the threads on how many phones fit on a modern UPS 747-8 with 46 AMD cargo positions, I'll dig up the link and put it here in an edit.
EDIT: 210,000 is my estimate in the new, slimmer packaging we have seen in the last few revs.
Nobody does. Apple doesn't consider it shipped until it clears customs in Louisville. if you have UPS MyChoice, you can see your tracking there from China.
Aww, see, I told you guys we’d be like family before the week is over.
Yea, real estate here is crazy, and the Springs isn't even as bad as Denver. So glad you got so much out of the sale. Enjoy retirement (and those retirement checks!) in Tennessee
At least Adam Scott got his new purple iPhone.
