You may absolutely be right about your phone being on that plane, but in past iPhone launches UPS has shipped from Louisville to Chicago overnight via truck. Maybe they are doing some both ways, or just doing it differently this year.
Apple also sends iPhones directly to O'Hare from China, separate from the UPS worldwide hub, for channel deliveries to stores, etc.
I had to pick something up at the BK store today. I asked how tomorrow will work. They told me for some carriers and trade in programs, they'll have you go in the store. For the other situations (you got SIM free, not a carrier that needs activation on site or they don't take trade ins for), they'll bring it to you outside.
Our apartment complex turned the air off last week and we were sweltering in our unit. I have the balcony and every window opened. I will say that I am going to enjoy these last few days of warmth.
I held off on MagSafe and when I finally decide they’re out of stock...
In Minneapolis IIRC they have a place to scan at the airport and then the place downtown where they are placed on trucks to the centers for final delivery
Most likely its the difference between the airport facility and the actual station where they send trucks from. In Chicago for example, it'll get to O'Hare but then for deliveries actually in the city, truck into the depot where the UPS delivery trucks leave from.
You can check this link to Flight Aware. Look for the flight that left Louisville around the time UPS says it departed in their package tracking info. UPS typically flies into Mather Field rather than SMF.
Just got my notification from Apple that my iPhone is ready for pickup at the Apple Store! My pickup window is 12:00-12:15pm in Portland, Maine tomorrow!
Mine lands at 5 and the CC closes at 7:30. Wonder if I have 1 more shot at getting it early
I doubt it for today.
For those with a 12:24am AK departure scan, do you happen to live in the general area of the UPS hub in Louisville to where the rest of the travel would probably be via ground later tonight into other states? Or do you all expect more flights? Just wondering if they’re waiting ‘til later to deal with ones that are closer and traveling by ground vs. all these that are flying out.
FWIW, it shows shipping 2-3 weeks but actually mine shipped the next day. I ordered yesterday and will be here tomorrow.
Mine is still in transit after leaving Louisville at 1:50 pm. It’s about a 9 hour drive from Louisville to Richmond VA so it’s defiantly on a truck.
I have 2 pickups - one at 9am and one at 10:15am. Interestingly the 10:15 changed to "ready for pickup" in the last hour or so but the 9am is still "Order in Progress". The 10:15 is Verizon and the 9am is Sim Free.
FWIW: I asked at the store today and they said I should be able to get both at the same time and not need to come back for the second appointment.
I’m in Wilmington NC. I’m just trusting it will make it. Hoping it’s just delayed scans.
Good to know about getting them both at the same time. I’m in the same boat though. 8am not ready yet. Noon ready.
