I'm not following any plane. I have no idea what plane mine might or might be not be on. I've just seen you post this numerous times now. Just because it happened last year doesn't mean it's how it'll go this year. That's all.
Got a tip for us?

I think I saw that once. Didn't change anything. I think the alert "settled down" after about a day.
And me too, I’ve been picking my iPhones day one at the hub for years. Not sure what changed with this one.
My bad is I mean to quote the other guy who said his phone was on that atlas flight. But yeah nothing is going to change logistics wise as it’s no point. I’m willing to put money that the picture I’m constantlly will match this year tracking. Also there will be more than one plane, in which will stagger into Kentucky. Once all of the iPhones arrive the trucks/planes will go to their final destination. You can go to my post from last year in which a UPS employee corroborate what I said. But I can guarantee, 100% sure that the plane the previous guy posted isn’t the plane, not only that phones haven’t even left China yet.. People should go and look back at last years tracking thread..

or track by reference and enter your cell phone number. you’ll get tracking updates before you get a tracking number
Nothing for me yet on My Choice, or by checking with my phone number / order number (minus last 2). XS Max, 64gb SG.
Correct Louisville, although you’ll be wanting to track a UPS plane from China not a atlast flight..
Yes, either use first 8 digits of the Apple order number, or all the digits of order number or phone number. If you have UPS account, it will just shows up when the label is made.
AK is Alaska then it should go to Louisville, KY
what if ..when i purchased my iphone, i didn’t pre register a phone number and just bought the phone without pre setting it up with my carrier?? did you do that or did you set it up with your carrier? i was just trying to complete the prcsss ASAP and now im regretting that because i always track it with my phone number.
Yes, I know AK is Alaska. Not sure why you confirmed what I typed.

I ordered a SIM free, so no association with the phone number, but it works for me tracking by reference with phone number - I think it pulls the number from the apple ID used to order.
You had a ? at the end which made it a question and I was just replying to it.
Phone number associated to Apple ID used for the purchasewhat if ..when i purchased my iphone, i didn’t pre register a phone number and just bought the phone without pre setting it up with my carrier?? did you do that or did you set it up with your carrier? i was just trying to complete the prcsss ASAP and now im regretting that because i always track it with my phone number.
You have to have a phone number associated with your Apple Store account... THAT is the phone number that you use... regardless of which cellular line you will use the new phone with...
I was seeking confirmation of Kentucky being the next destination after Alaska.
Yeah... the route is:
China > Anchorage AK > Louisville KY > your house (depending on where you are, the next flight(s) may be to a hub near you, or to your actual city).
Finally one of my pkgs showed in UPS my choice. 1 down 2 to go. Just don’t know which is which. This one is .70kgs ♂️

What you say is correct as well for the past several years. While it may indeed be different this year, I doubt that our phones are in the air yet. If they are, I’ll be pleasantly surprised.
