Yeah, I checked as well and their site only mentions business day delivery for Worldwide Express Saver.
Mine is technically 9/23 8:48PM, but I'm guessing I'm in the same group despite that lol.
I received an update for departure though: 9/24 2:25AM Departure Scan. Does anyone have this as well?
As long as they get to Louisville tonight I think there is a good chance of taking delivery tomorrow. I really hope you are right!
FYI we have worldwide express saver which does not do Saturday deliveries from what I can see on their website.
For me it says Worldwide Express Saver, do you have any info on that about saturday deliveries?

One of them told me that the customer center will be closed tomorrow to pick up. could you tell me how to do a pick up on a saturday?
I wonder if anyone else had selected "Hold at UPS Center" like I did and if I can pick it up tomorrow (if the shipment gets to Orlando area) between 8-11 am when my local UPS Hub in Longwood, FL is open.
Did anyone else ask for iPhone to be held at a UPS center/location? I picked the UPS in Longwood since it is our distribution center rather than a "UPS Store".

From what I've experienced, express packages are sorted and can be held for pickup if your facility has Saturday operating hours. Ground shipments are ignored until Monday.
Do you think it's possible they'd be delivered later tonight? Someone posted about a possible 7PM delivery earlier in this thread. I'm hoping that they'll stick to the original ETA (9/23) UPS gave me. I'd be a bit bummed if they didn't since they got my hopes up with the thought of early delivery. Apple's ETA has and still says 9/26... which I'm guessing is more likely in this current situation.
I'm wondering the same thing. Could I do a pickup at the UPS service center on a Saturday with "World Ease"?
My tracking says "World Wide Express Saver" - that one doesn't mention Saturday delivery.

Looks like it is possible if it gets sorted by Tomorrow morning.
Oh NO! That sucks. Mine still says departed from HK - that UPS63 flight is supposed to land in 90 minutes, so I'll be curious to see if I get a scan. Not that it means anything either way, just looking for any shred of data to torture myself with, LOL.

As far as I know, most UPS hubs are closed on the weekends to the public?

Hey 8:01ers, does anyone know the estimated landing time in anc today?
I called both ups and Apple and they aren't willing to do anything to get our phones to us tomorrow. Very disappointed.

I pre-ordered on 9/9: MB 128 Plus AT&T, 10/4-10/10. Mine is still "processing." I went ahead and reserved the exact same model at a local Apple store under the iPhone Upgrade Program, per recommendation of some forum members here. I plan to wait to cancel my pre-order until I arrive at the store, get paired with an associate and make sure they can switch it up to sell me the store model under AT&T Next (I get a $25 line discount for Next, so DO NOT want the Apple program). Wish me luck... I'll report back about how it goes.
