The 3:26 departures only landed within the past 45-60 min or so. Remember the packages have a lot to do between landing and getting sorted to the destination city. The next flight out of SDF to my airport (MSP) is in just under 2 hours. It'll get to MSP and to my local UPS hub in time. I've seen this before. We'll be fine!

EDIT: Speaking of which, I just got a 2:48am import scan at SDF. Someone a few minutes before my post had a 2:52am import scan. It's all coming together.
2:15 AM IMPORT scan in KY. Now off to NorCal

Cutting it a bit close for comfort at a 2:53am arrival scan in Louisville if it’s gonna make PHX today.

Gawd I’ll be happy when this phone arrives and stops playing UPS World Traveler.

I’m there too. Looking back last year it cut it almost by the same amount of time. They’re holding the plane as it should have taken off 20 minutes ago.

Just got my Louisville scan at 333am. Again, not sure how UPS is planning to get my phone to me by tomorrow. Hopefully it makes it to Ontario, CA asap and then makes this flight that leaves in 2 1/2 hours to Honolulu. Doubt it though... Oh and if it happens to make that flight then it will need to be put on yet another flight to a different island.

Yayyyyyyy Import Scan for 3:26pm AK departure
View attachment 785524
Mine was on the 3:26pm out or Anchorage, just barely updated to import scan in Louisville, weird, as I ordered it at 12:02am on the 14th. Still needs to get to Sky Harbor but should be no problem. This is the closest I’ve ever seen in the past 10 or so years
 
I’ve been doing this for a few years now, so I know that I’ll have a shiny new phone tonight but under normal circumstances I wouldn’t be expecting anything anything that spent the morning in Korea. This is an iPhone launch though, things are different lol

Went to bed at 11pm Eastern, phone had left Alaska, presumably to Louisville (I’m in Maryland on the Washington DC border). Delivery was set for 9/21 and that date had never changed.

Woke up to see my phone is in Illinois with a rescheduled delivery of 9/24. Adjusting expectations sigh.
what????? Brightstar is some apple associate company they do recycling of phones.I live 5 mins away from them.
