Yeah until I see out for delivery here in CU I would worry as well. Hopefully that does not happen for either of us this year. Last year it was no problem but my phone was in week later not opening day craziness. How did. You determine it was “lost” and then on truck? Usually I just see arrival from Decatur and then sometime between 8-9 before local trucks deliver it shows on the truck. I assume that did not appear for you, how late were you able to get them to search the Decatur truck again?
I got the second arrival at Urbana notice when it came back from Decatur, but I didn’t get a ”waiting for pickup at CC“ notice. So I went to the center on N. Lincoln and asked for it, they couldn’t find it. They initially said it might have gone out for delivery, so I then asked why I didn’t get that notice. I asked for the manager and she looked but couldn’t find it either. They were closing for the morning, so she gave me her private UPS number and asked me to call her if it was delivered. She called me about 2:30PM to tell me they found it on the truck that had come from Decatur, and was being reloaded to go to California. Apparently the semi truck that comes from Indianapolis goes to Urbana, then Decatur, then back to Urbana, and then is free to go where needed. In this case California. Why not fly the stuff instead of over the road I don’t have a clue.

Attention!!!

This is approximately the current time on East Coast. We should be seeing "Departed from Facility", in Louisville, Kentucky soon.

Please don't forget to report your departure scans so we know you are on your way home. My good thoughts, prayers, and best wishes are with your new iPhone.

Go Beyond! Go iPhone!

Happy and safe travels!!!

Lots of flights are taking off. Will be interesting to see which one departs first. The tough one to determine will be the first two.

Very similar to this! You’d get a bunch of us on the Dell forums sharing details. What was missing was the live flight tracking though!

Had similar fun tracking my BMW when it was on the ocean from Germany over on those forums. Really cool now since you can see the plane location live and you can see cargo ship locations live.

It is the fun part of the experience that makes it all feel just a bit more special. You feel a bit more connected.

The journey is fun and the destination will be all that much better for it.

This is quite fun especially seeing people’s viewpoints, waiting for deliveries tracking flights pictures of people in Apple Store queues for collections across the globe getting the buzz of excitement. I love it!
 
What matters, of course, is if you enjoyed it and it fits your preferences, but, I have to say: the only detectable real food here are some sliced onions :).
For all of you naysayers out there, this place has been in business for nearly 100 years and is a Lynchburg, VA institution.

Have never been sick or "bothered" by any of the food...despite its questionable visual qualities...🤣
🤣🤣

If you are ever passing through and want an experience and great food, stop at The Texas Inn. 😉
