Carrier Apple.com New 2018 iPhone Pre-Order Thread

My phone left Alaska this morning. The phone is supposed to ship to my house address, however I am at university. Is it too late to hit "change delivery" on the ups.com site? Will that mess up my delivery for tomorrow? Or should I just have my parents mail to me when they get it.

The only option you will get is to hold for pickup. You can't change your address

 

[Jordan921]

mine as well

You should be flying out now!

If you change it it will get pushed to Monday

Anchorage departure time 11:35am what flight am I?
thank you

You mean arrival time 11:35? What's the final destination?

 

[hansenc]

On the move again!

Now I’m pretty sure my iPhone got stolen in ZhengZhou.

 

[Jordan921]

How so? I’m just curious is Apple ever beats their estimate. 90 minutes past the launch time so crazy! I bet I can find one in a store somewhere tomorrow

Then find one at the Apple store. You ordering after millions of people and then want Apple to just move yours up magically?

My Gold Max 256GB just landed in Anchorage! It was stuck in Incheon all day yesterday. Originally I was part of the ZZ 2:10 group.

Just received an update -- my phone has left Anchorage (finally)

[ttNB]

Got one phone on departure from AK.

 

[greytmom]

So nice of Apple store to move my delivery date from 9/21 to 10/1-10-3. So glad I ordered my phone at 12:01. From shipping to preparing to ship. So great of them.

Yikes... when did this update?

 

[gigapocket1]

2:10 departure

Must be on 97

yeah.. thats the flight I believe I am on as well.

 

[redsoxguy676]

Look the closest UPS terminal from you and search for a flight. Mine is KMIA!

Kind of interesting, can't find a flight leaving Louisville heading to the greater Philadelphia area on flightaware...

 

[Uccle]

Can someone check on the folks who are currently rowing my iPhone from Hong Kong to the USA? I'm a bit worried they haven't passed Hawaii yet and it has been two days without any communication.

Sigh...

Hey, everyone. I’m clinging to the bottom of a UPS flight that I’m pretty sure has my phone on board. It’s very cold up here at 5k feet. Do you think that’s okay for my phone?? I tried to call up to the cockpit but I can’t find the number.

Anyway, when this baby lands I’m going to jump on the truck with it and make sure it gets to my house on time. Apple is so bad! Why can’t they get this right??

/sarcasm

sure you’re on the right flight? they’ve been flying at an average of 30k ft

 

[EricExtreme]

Same exact thing happened to me! I had Incheon there for a while and now it's back to China. I also can't place a hold for pickup because it says my address doesn't match what I have in Mychoice, but somehow it has it linked to me. Weirdest launch I've experience thus far. I just hope it shows up tomorrow morning, now that I had to take the day off to wait for it.

You can leave a release form so they drop it off so you don’t have to take the day off from work. I won’t be home all day and am leaving a release form.

You stole my tracking info.

I’m not on it, I’m outside, clutching the bottom hull.

30k feet? You’re right! I can see my house from here! Should I crawl up to the front windows and see if I can use sign language to tell them to drop my phone when we fly over??

 

[jessebkr87]

So my watch went from Louisville to Nashville and will have to end up in Atlanta. Per the flight tracker, UPS doesn’t fly from Nashville to Atlanta. So, would they be driving it? Would my iPhone take the same route? Phone just left Alaska and will not make it in time if it has to be driven from Louisville to Nashville then Atlanta. I would have thought they would both fly from Louisville to Atlanta.

 

[Uccle]

You stole my tracking info.

So glad my little iPhone isn't alone

 

[Juju56]

Departed from AK.

 

[ReidTYK]

This has to be a codeshare flight. Singapore Airlines would be legally forbidden from flying between two US cities.

Only with passengers

 

[philly27]

anyone get departure scans for ups99?

 

[Bo15]

2:10 departure


yeah.. thats the flight I believe I am on as well.

 

[ilkevinli]

There are a bunch of us with the same exact info. It's like the pallet with our phones is missing.

You stole my tracking info.

 

[iApplereviews]

Not yet but the other took almost an hour

 

[DarthHill]

One more day, peeps. (We hope). Watch is already on the way to PHX, but still wondering about poor 11:35am AK.

EDIT: My watch is now in Mather, CA. Weird. Hopefully they both arrive at the same time tomorrow in PHX.

I would bet yours is on UPS97 that left AK around 2pm. My tracking matches yours exactly and I just got an update that it left AK at 14:10.
