Went to bed last night seeing that my date changed back to the 21st. Woke up to see that it didn’t leave Louisville until 4:27 (late) and will arrive in Buffalo 5:43(est).

I’m trying to think if it will make it on time for delivery today. The UPS hub is not far from the airport but I just need to know if I should still take my PTO day or not. Otherwise I’ll wait until Monday. I just don’t want to get a delivery exception at noon saying oops now it’s Monday.

Plenty of time for your phone to get on the truck

What does this mean? Ordered on pre ordered day and got a pickup spot confirmed for the 21st (today) and then I get this email. Does anyone know what this is? Where you still able to get your phone that day?
I got the same for my second order placed before 8 am eastern on Friday. My 3 am order is ready for pickup.
 
Both phones departed Louisville @ 04:46 am enroute to Pennsylvania. Moving right along we are! Happy Launch Day Everyone!
 
So many flights let KY within 10 minutes of each other

Yep I think so too, delayed but still
Atleast it took off will be in ny by 6:40 which is fairly the time when they start loading the trucks here sometimes i have seen my packages get scanned as out for delivery at 8am
 
So if I have this

09/21/2018 - 4:31 A.M. departure scan

Louisville, KY, United States

Is it on UPS400
Which left at 447am arriving MIA 645

Will I make it?

You will get it today. My phones are on that same flight bound for Syracuse with at 6:31 arrival. They then have to truck for 1.5 hours for local delivery. Confident they will make it. Enjoy your phone today!

Yeah but after it lands here the phones have to get to the local hubs. I think we’re getting them today but it’s delayed a bit.
 
If your phone is on a plane from Louisville to your home airport, you’ll get your phone. You can see they delayed all the planes a lot to make sure the phones made it onboard. If they have to delay the trucks some too, I’m sure they will. You can tell that these iPhone launches are not normal days for UPS. Even their computer system was confused last night saying we were delayed to Monday because that’s what would happen for any normal shipments

Mine left Louisville at 5:11am and won't get here to 6:03am, and then it needs to get transported to the local UPS hub here. Sigh, I really hope it'll make it on the truck for delivery today.

I’m in South Richmond Hill, Queens that is where my UPS respective hub is and luckily that hub is the one where all the jfk packages are handled.. so i’m quite confident and also this is NYC ups will be ready by the time the flight lands to get those phones to the customers but will not see them before afternoon
 
Just woke up to see what’s going on and go pee. Saw my phone leave Louisville at 3:40am. Not sure which flight it is on, whether it is going to Ontario or LAX. With all the delays who knows until it lands. Anyway going back to sleep so I can get up early and head to UPS CC.....Good luck everyone.
 
I’m still nervous. Mine has departed Louisville, with about an hour remaining to DFW. Then it’s a 3 hour drive to West Texas.

Hope your shipment does not go into never never land out of DFW airport like mine did. Scanned last night at 10 at airport and 7 hours later no arrival scan at Fort Worth yet. Getting a bit worried.
 
One watch already loaded on the delivery vehicle. Phone received arrival scan in Columbus just a bit ago. Other watch set for in-store pickup this morning.

Every year my phone is ready for pick up by 10ish. Let’s see what happens this year..
 
Oh by the way I just looked and while I had my import scan in Louisville at 11:52, which was all that was there. While I was asleep an addition was added to the tracking. It actually arrived in Louisville at 7:04.
 
Does it mean anything that now when I look at my order online it shows delayed but in the Apple app it shows today?
What does the delivery date show on the UPS tracking? The plane that presumably your phone is on landed in Buffalo and they have all day to get it to you.
