I'm in the 801 group just got off the phone with UPS.

They informed me that my iPhone is going to be available for pickup tonight at my local destination facility. The one I'm going is open from 9am-7pm and 7:30pm-8:00pm today. They're also open tomorrow(Saturday) from 10am-1pm.

I had them hold it at the facility for me to pick up tonight. I got the 128gb JB iPhone 7 plus on AT&T's next plan on apple.com at 2:08am on release day.

Same exact group and phone, that is so helpful. Thank you so much, what city is your local destination?

UPS customer service is pretty worthless. All we've heard is that they won't be able to estimate delivery until it's in the States. Now it's sitting in AK, and all they can do is tell me to keep checking for updates. I have such a hard time believing that nobody in the UPS organization knows where their shipments are going to be and where. Isn't that the ENTIRE purpose of their company? /rant

I had a slightly different route than most of you. However, I'm on my 3rd delivery date including a now promised Saturday delivery. However, the phone's been sitting in Louisville since 1:00am today. The two UPS flights I would assume the phone to be on Newark and Philadelphia have already landed at those airports and still no departure from Louisville or arrival scans at a new hub.

Did you request that saturday delivery? or they gave you it?

When you go to UPS is your shipping method still UPS Worldwide Express Saver®

I did not request Saturday delivery. It "upgraded" to that when I received the new delivery date email from UPS. On the email it says the service is UPS Worldwide Saver. After clicking the tracking link, it says it is UPS Worldwide Express Saver

Interesting enough, when I highlight over the "Service Upgraded" at the top of the tracking page it says "This service has been upgraded to UPS Ground". Um, how is Ground an upgrade from what we have?

All flights from UPS leaving ANC for the rest of the day are either going to Louisville or Ontario, I don't think any of us are getting them tonight, tomorrow seems reasonable if there are Saturday deliveries or you can hold it at the UPS Customer facility.

Talking to UPS. No saturday deliveries and no option to upgrade in transit.
Meanwhile, Apple told me I would most likely get it by tomorrow, which is Saturday. Don't know who's lying but, one of them is.

You'd think that UPS would go ahead and do sat deliveries to get caught up. If they don't, they'll be in this same boat next week. I'm not getting my hopes up though.

No. They automatically updated to Saturday delivery when I received the new delivery date email this morning. Interesting enough, when hovering over the "Service Upgraded" text on the tracking page it says "This service has been upgraded to UPS Ground".
