Could you share which tools / websites you’re using for tracking? I assume one is ups.com?

In other news, mine showed up in UPS my choice this morning!!!
“Shipper created a label, UPS has not received the package yet.”
???
Right now, I have the following tracking tools open in Safari:
- https://www.ups.com/track?loc=en_DE&Requester=lasso/trackdetails
- https://www.upstoday.com/de/tracking/
- https://www.iship.com/trackit/track.aspx
- https://packageradar.com/
- https://www.aftership.com/track/

Awesome tools, thanks for sharing.

Parcel App on iOS and MacOS is a good one for Push Notifications too.
Yeah, I have that on my iPhone and Mac as well, and I also use Parcello on my iPhone, which estimates the exact time window the driver will deliver based on previous deliveries in your neighbourhood.

Yeah. So realistically that's not going to happen. Mostly just a warning to ignore delivery estimates for now until they get these things on a working plane
That's so annoying. If this spills into the weekend it will have to jump to Monday for me... Bad bad day!

Parcello not available in the UK :(

Can’t find Parcello in the App Store. Care to share a link?

Might be a German thing.

I'm not so worried about the blooming. My eyes are getting bad anyway and everything looks blurry all the time ? Still, even with glasses, I'm more worried about the rumours of ghosting. There's a couple of slow motion videos circulating that make it look really bad, particularly with white text on black. Some people don't seem to mind, others dislike it.

I did ghosting tests yesterday on co-workers 16” and its easy to ignore. Even our eyes naturally ghost real life ?

Anyone else having this (destination is Austria). Seems like it is delayed by at least a day. It still says it will be delivered by tomorrow, but the flight from Seoul to Cologne has already departed for today.

It's not Austria specific. We have the same situation for deliveries all over the EU. Just check the earlier posts.
I've just seen them, I just looked at the previous page and not further ?

According to other tracking numbers from previous MacBook shipments and flight data, it probably departs tomorrow evening (UTC+2) and arrives Thursday morning in Cologne. So Friday seems most likely. I guess UPS won't deliver parcels on Saturday?

@alexqndr @Dr.Ravencroft It seems like UPS11 was replaced with UPS11A. There is a flight from Seoul to Cologne on its way but our packages didn't even reach Seoul as of now. Check the data for Oct 27th.


EDIT: I guess this was the replacement flight. Even though our MBPs aren't in there, at least they prevent a backlog where we need to wait an additional time until that parcel jam is cleared.

Switzerland here, ordered on the launch day, 16" base with US Int. keyboard, estimated delivery 5. to 10. November...
Corrected est. delivery was for this Friday, but I got a doorbell ring already, impressive from Apple and TNT :)

WOW, most people here had a 28/29th estimated delivery date. I am amazed you got it early. Might be an UPS issue? Not sure if this gives me hope or shivers...

I am not sure, I remember someone posting the same flight status page saying that the canceled flight was the one containing the machines. If so, is that correct or just speculation?
I think everything is speculation right now, we just know about a mechanical failure and a delay. We don't know where our MacBooks are right now or what flight they will be on.

Same feeling. It’s a mess. Apple tracking even said yesterday it would arrive yesterday. But probably it was the box for my trade in Mac. I missed it so I’ve been refreshing since yesterday. My thumb hurts ?
