Just to add to the tracking mess... the aircraft being used for this CAO1007 flight normally flys a PVG-CTU-ANC-ORD route. This is the one-off time it’s flying PVG-CGO-ANC-SDF-ORD. Unless this flight is carrying other UPS cargo, there’s little reason for an international cargo carrier other than UPS itself to make a scheduled stop in SDF. Air China Cargo doesn’t even have it searchable in their network of destinations on their website. I would chalk the misaligned timing up to someone who probably manually entered the scan data (I doubt anyone actually scanned anything physically at ANC) and simply assuming the flight would arrive and depart without issue.

Sorry for asking a slightly off topic question. Did anyone here order the MagSafe Wallet and getting theirs on release day? I ordered one with my phone order and got an order confirmation for November 3 delivery. It now has a November 25th delivery.
I placed my phone orders and TOTALLY FORGOT about the wallet and went back in for a blue one. Currently have the Nov. 3 - 10 window with no update. Still says “Order Will Be Available Soon”.

I have little doubt that the plane is loaded with iPhones. No other reason for air China cargo to fly from CGO to SDF at this very moment..

My wife’s clear iPhone 12 Pro case arrived today. Mine is due for delivery tomorrow along with a MagSafe charger.

I ordered the same blue wallet right away on first order day and it was Nov 3-10 then. So I think they are still being manufactured.
I’m picking my phone up on Friday at 8am and going to beg the person assisting me at the store to sell me one :) and then just cancel my online order. I doubt they will have any in stock, but worth asking.
 
Also, my charge went through for my iPhone 11 Pro Max monthly installment through iUP. :( Only bummed because others have mentioned getting their monthly payment skipped or have it go through as $0. Oh well.
 
Mine does not.
We didn't finish ordering the phone until 30 minutes after the store opened, so we're in coach class, and haven't started the boarding process yet. I still have the following on My Choice:
Exception
Apple volume at origin pending departure on Charter Aircraft as scheduled.
 
Like I mentioned above, the exception note only shows up in the full size UPS website in the UPS My Choice preview window when you click on your iPhone tracking number, not on the UPS app nor on the full tracking details.

Mine did too for this month. I think I remember getting a credit last year when the same thing happened. Can’t remember for sure though.
