I had mine ordered at exactly :02 after they went on sale, and I had NO issues. You posted your scan, your ipad cleared customs so what are you worried about? let him think and spread whatever he wants, but you don't need to worry about it. I bet your ipad is on the flight to Palm Beach FL before going to your home. :)

Is that the place that it comes to near me? The main reason I am worried is because I have seen nothing this whole time and when I did finally get a scan a couple of hours ago it was close to update time. Its not like I just waited for the system to update itself because it would have shown an older date/.

yes, that is the Florida flight. And according to Thomas @ ups:
Second, UPS developed special ops plan to coordinate delivery of iPads on a single day. And so, Tracking is not showing all movements.

There are a lot more to the operation than we know, but it will be turn out aok, this is their business they know what they are doing.
 
Any chance unscheduled flights go out? My iPad hit Louisville KY at 12:40am today.

Edit: and there are no flights to ATL from UPS in the next 16 hours or something...

Yes, there is. There's one going to Hartsfield-Jackson Intl (ATL).

Well then I'm effed because it doesnt arrive until almost 7 am and I know a truck driver doesn't drive all the way from there to pensacola :(
 
Starting just after 1am PST we're going to start seeing flights out of Louisville all over the US:

Check that list to see what flight your iPad may be on.

EDIT: Yes, flight to Sac! http://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS958 :D :D :D

EDIT 2: For the person looking for Anchorage flights....there's yet a 3rd flight: http://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS80

I don't see any flights to California :confused: I see one going to Sacramento...but there is no possible way to get from Sacramento to SoCal in anything less than 6 hours
 
Breathe, relax, go to bed,

if you have been good little boys and girls Ipad Claus will come and leave you something other than coal tomorrow.

There is nothing to be learned from tracking tonight, if you don't get your delivery by noon tomorrow, and your tracking doesn't show it out for delivery by then..... in that case you were naughty and Ipad Claus has skipped you.
 
How can so many of you be constantly refreshing this thread and so few of you actually reading the messages that get posted?!?!

To repeat... when I had a MacBook Pro ordered a couple of years ago, the tracking information showed it was STILL IN CHINA when I went to bed. The next morning around 7am, it STILL showed it to be in China. Yet, 3 hours later (just after 10am) my MacBook Pro was delivered.

Further, I've had other packages delivered to me and when I looked at the UPS tracking for the package, it showed it to be in another state. It was ALREADY in my hands, yet tracking showed it hundreds of miles away.

You can't rely on what the tracking information shows. Yes, most of the time it's pretty accurate. But lots of times (in my experience) it is highly inaccurate. Particular so when it's a new release Apple item.

Good point Mark. If you didn't get an email or a phone call. You should be good to go. Gnight everyone!

No, no, no. I am pissed. I ordered the first day and my package is in Kentucky and I live in FL with no flight out getting to Palm beach which is still hours away until almost 7am. and I know its not delayed info because the scan time is only 2 hours ago.
 
Just wanna say again it sure would have been nice to have been told in advance that there was no Saturday delivery in my area.

FedEx delivers here, so why not UPS?

I live not even a full hour drive WITH traffic from the main UPS hub serving all of southern California.

I really don't see why we couldn't have been told during the ordering process or been given enough advance notice to change the order to in store pickup.

Or why not an option to have our order diverted to an Apple store for pickup? Takes me not even 30 minutes to get to the closest Apple store.

Local UPS hub is closed on Saturday so no delivery, no holding for pickup, nothing until Monday.
 
Woohoo! I am a grown man, but I might not fall asleep!

Yeah I just check and Palm beach is 592 miles away. I can't explain my "fraking-outness" right now but.... ugh... idk, tomorrow (hopefully) I will look back on tonight and think wow I need to chill.

However, it will still very close. It will get there at 5am but still has 180 miles to travel and that would be if it went straight to my city with no stops... Not looking too good for me.
 
every body calm the :) down. Use Newegg's package tracker which will show you one step beyond UPS's tracker on the website (I guess its because of the API's access)

Code:
http://www.newegg.com/Info/TrackOrder.aspx?TrackingNumber=[B]XXXX[/B]

Where XXXX is your tracking number without quotes or anything.

Just because a flight isn't scheduled does not indicate it doesn't exist.

Sure, be concerned, but realize that you are powerless to change fate, fate is exactly what took over control from us the second 'cancel order' greyed out on the Apple store order page.

that one is worse than the official, and nowhere near as up to date as the iship and trackthepack are

Relax just a bit.... new flights do pop up as we saw with Houston.
