And my separate orders of the Apple Vision Pro Travel Case and Apple Vision Pro Bands x2 (Small) are coming from the usual regional Apple warehouse in Carlisle, PA.

I'm picking it up in the store. I'm also picking up the case and the battery clip. My worry is lugging this stuff to the car. It's hard to get a parking spot at Millenia mall near the main entrance. Not impossible, but hard. I'll probably use the valet parking for the first time. It'll help with carrying it out, as the valet stand is just outside the main exit. The excitement is mounting!
I doubt you will have trouble finding parking if you have an early pickup time. Millenia was booked by the time I got my Apple Card to work, so I ordered launch day delivery, but then snagged an 8am at Altamonte last week. Never been to that one...

If anyone wanna push it to the extreme and live spot their plane taking off from Louisville!

I am in awe at the level of obsessiveness here, I type, as I obsessively check my tracking and yes... I am watching the planes take off as well. hahahaha. Mine also just departed KY facility...

I’m thinking I might trade in my MacBook Air and go all in on the spatial computing revolution. I have an AVP pickup slot tomorrow, does anyone know if I can just walk in there with my MacBook Air under my arm and get the trade in for it added to my AVP order? Or is that something I needed to have arranged ahead of time/selected when I placed my order?

And for anyone who replies to say either,

  1. You’re crazy trying to replace a Mac with an AVP! It won‘t work, it’s too heavy, etc. etc. Or,
  2. You‘d get way more money for it if you sold it through some other platform so you should do that.
Thanks but I’m not really interested in having that discussion so might not reply. I’m just trying to find out if I can still trade in?

Search a flight tracker site, from Louisville to your city.
Yes, this ^^ if you know which UPS air terminal will be chosen.

I am close to 3 different airports: LAX, ONT, BUR all of which receives UPS freighter planes.

Will have to wait about 6 hours to see which airport it landed since mine took off KY just 15 minutes ago.

Once the air hub delivers to your local customer counter hub, the tracking gets even more fun - watching the UPS truck on a map move all day!

My pickup order is still "Processing", but my appointment isn't first thing in the morning. I'm too lazy to drag my butt to the mall early, even for the AVP.
Mine is not first thing either. I wont make it though as something has come up. Ill pick it up once the other things are settled.

If you do a trade in, since the AVP has been pre-paid, you will most likely get an Apple gift card.

My Zeiss inserts are crossing the Grand Canyon and will be over top of my house in 35 minutes lol. Going to be a bit of a nightmare as I had apple intervene and schedule a hold for pickup on them but it's now thrown some funky stuff into limbo on the tracking. Hopefully it doesn't get stuck in a logistics pit of despair for 3 days. Snow at my address would have caused them to weather delay it anyways, so I figure this is my best bet for getting them tomorrow.
