:rolleyes:I got that once. It was scheduled for that day, and it actually came that day. I asked the driver why it was rescheduled, and to no surprise, he didn't have a clue. It must be great working there. It's an exception and delayed, that comes on the day it was originally quoted. *shrug*

EDIT: Oh, but the weirdest one was the note 'Package cant be delivered today. Package can be delivered next day', for one that arrived early at the local terminal. I just drove down and picked it up. UPS...

There’s a cargolux scheduled for anchorage in 3 hours. Hope the 9:20 crew gets on it!
I tried playing that with something I ordered from London, UK. I checked all the cargo flights, checked the package tracking, and thought I had the right plane, and the damn package beat the plane into a different hub, and I was mystified. It was a DHL package, and apparently it didn't come across the pond on an actual DHL plane. So many planes make the trip. Who knows who carried my package (and when/where it actually left). But be excited. I'm a tracking maniac. I learned how to track shipping containers on container ships trying to see when something for a client was going to arrive. It's kinda fun actually...

As what @harrypraneeth mentioned. This CargoLux is expected to depart in 3 hours. 08:00-09:00 Crew hoping to get scans in within 3 hours. Let's Go!!! Catch that plane!!!

Sorry to burst your bubble, but I don't expect there's enough pressure on UPS for them to use another airline. They probably are just waiting to file until closer to when they'd like to take off.

AND there are so many carriers that 'freelance', so it's possible that the pallets containing your iPhone could take a totally different plane from a different carrier. There are so many to choose from, and so many airports they could originate from. But trying to track purchases is fun!
 
I agree, I’ve seen Cargolux used by UPS rarely in the past.
I just want those phones to get out of ZhengZhou today! :)
 
iPhone Mini orders are not coming form UPS flight right? They're using a different airline too??
iPhone Minis are on UPS105 which is in the air between Osaka and Anchorage.

I just woke up! Wait for me! Oh man I’m dizzy 😵 Let’s go!

Looking more into the Cargolux flight’s activity log, it’s expected to go from ZhengZhou -> Anchorage -> Chicago.
This isn’t a typical pattern for iPhone deliveries as they go to Louisville from Anchorage.
I’m not too confident about this flight.

They could still be on there and get offloaded in Anchorage to marry up with another UPS plane going to Louisville.

Definitely, coming into ANC this far in advance, lots of time to offload, and then reload for SDF, including those that go to ORD
 
CargoLux Airline has taken off!!! Hoping to see new scans shortly LOL😩
This could still be the flight. It was in Anchorage for a short stop then went on to Chicago O’Hare - could be a customs stop before going to Louisville...
