So you all are way ahead of me! Ordered mine on Friday at 2:02 AM Central and got my confirmation email at 2:04 AM Central. Got the Friday, 9/21 date for my 256 Max SG but my order is still Processing! I've called Apple twice and they say everything looks good on their end and that I will get my phone on Friday. Thoughts? Everyone else seems many steps ahead of me at this point.

Please give your thoughts! Thanks!

I’m in your same boat. Haven’t been able to get anything on ups tracking by reference. Hopefully we hear something tomorrow!

I’m aware. But you’ll get a arrival scan somewhere else in China likely today or tomorrow. I posted this some pages ago. This is my tracking from last years iPhone X.

Notice the departures and arrivals when in Zhengzhou were spaced closely together. It was a 27min flight or drive. Probably between airports or facilities. I got a departure at 11:57am local time like 9 hours ago. I'm pretty sure next arrival scan will be in AK.

Im saying you’ll get another arrival scan in China before it leaves. Then you’re next scan will be Alaska.

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 ‍♂️

Take a look on ups.com, if you have MyChoice setup you will be able to see the reference #'s and you can tell that way. If not, try searching by reference on the ups.com site with the W order number minus the last 2 digits, and whichever one you find it with is the one you want.

Just off of weight, I think it's your watch since my watch is also 0.70kg. Not sure what the phones are weighing out to though.

I just had Order Processed and a tracking number show up on the UPS site. It is for my S4 44mm watch. Weight of package is .7 kg
I am still waiting for tracking number for my iPhone XS Max 512G SG.
My watch order confirmation email came through at 00:03 and my iPhone order confirmation came through at 00:04. I ordered both through the Apple Store app on my iPhone.

I figured it was a long shot. Why only one plane? They fly off in squadrons of 747's filled to the gills with iPhones. Had some fun tracking down the tail number though.

As has been mentioned, you should get a departure scan from ZhengZhou with an arrival scan for the same. Whoever had stated that they were tracking their order on a flight by Atlas Air, I think they are incorrect. I don’t believe Atlas does any work for UPS, and further, all Apple iphone shipping will be on a UPS plane.
What a pathetic bunch we are.
