This looks to be the whole flight itinerary for my Max.

A single UPS flight, UPS61, covers Hong Kong > Taiwan > Anchorage > Louisville.

Depending on what flight it's on from Louisville, my Max should arrive in New York (JFK) at 4:45 a.m. or 5:30 a.m. EDT tomorrow morning.

Based on previous experience with shipments arriving at JFK at that time of the morning, I think that there's a very good chance that I'll receive my Max tomorrow. I'm less sure that UPS will deliver it, as it currently says it will, by 3:30 p.m.

Re the itinerary below, my Max should arrive at Anchorage about 35 minutes from now.

For anyone interested, I've made links to these flights on FlightAware, which has detailed info, a map showing the flight and live tracking.

Hong Kong to Taipei
UPS Flight 61
Departed: 4:30 a.m. China Time
Arrived: 5:40 a.m. China Time

Taipei to Anchorage
UPS Flight 61 Continued
Departed: 8:15 p.m. China Time
Scheduled to Arrive: 1:00 p.m. Alaska Time

Anchorage to Louisville
UPS Flight 61 Continued
Scheduled to Depart: 3:00 p.m. Alaska Time
Scheduled to Arrive: 1:00 a.m. Friday, Eastern U.S. Time

From Louisville, my Max could be on either of two UPS flights that leave Louisville for JFK only 35 minutes apart.

First Flight, Louisville to New York JFK
UPS1114
Scheduled to Depart 3:15 a.m. Friday, Eastern U.S. Time
Scheduled to Arrive: 4:45 a.m. Friday, Eastern U.S. Time

Second Flight, Louisville to New York JFK
UPS1112
Scheduled to Depart 3:50 a.m. Friday, Eastern U.S. Time
Scheduled to Arrive: 5:30 a.m. Friday, Eastern U.S. Time


UPS Shipment Progress continues to confirm the flight number (UPS61) and routing in post #3615 for Mac Studios flying Hong Kong > Taipei > Anchorage > Louisville.

As expected, my Max arrived in Anchorage at about 1:00 p.m. local time and left Anchorage shortly after 3:00 p.m., which is the departure time for the continuation of flight UPS61 to Louisville:

The screen capture below is from Flight Aware's live tracking of today's flight from Anchorage to Louisville. On arrival at Louisville (SDF) tonight at about 1:00 a.m. Eastern Time, my Max will be transferred to a UPS flight to New York/JFK. The flight from Louisville to New York is about 90 minutes.

Thank you for your patience.

This is Apple’s way of saying, don’t forget you ordered this thing 2 months ago. We don’t have any clue when it will be shipped, so just keep your money ready.

grrrr

Given what we know about Covid-19's impact worldwide, and particularly given what Apple said on April 28 about the impact of coronavirus measures on production in China, Apple's doing quite well.

Apple has so much cash, they can buy up production capacity many months or even years ahead of time and even pay out for more capacity than they might even need. Huge advantage for them, especially since their scale is so massive.


Small update on mine, scheduled for delivery tomorrow (but will hopefully hold it at my local UPS location like I've requested!)

Ontario said it was in Ankorage in the afternoon.

If UPS says that your order went Hong Kong > Taiwan > Anchorage, your Mac Studio should be in Louisville at about 1AM this morning. See the post nine above. Then it depends on where you are in Ontario. From Louisville, delivery to the Toronto and Ottawa areas will presumably be fastest.

[EDIT: The flight to Louisville has just landed, see post below]

For those whose Mac Studio was on UPS61 today from Hong Kong > Taipei > Anchorage > Louisville, your computer has just landed in Louisville. Next, transfer of your order to a UPS flight to your local airport, in my case New York/JFK.

Another rescheduled delivery!

Let’s hope this storm doesn’t prevent the UPS truck from delivering.

Who the hell gets 8" - 13" of snow in the third week of May :)

Hopefully Denver has proper snowplows. In New York, we use garbage trucks and stick a scoop on the front. The scoop just works on gravity. Sometimes what our "snowplows" mostly do is pack down the snow.

On the upside, it looks like it's too warm in Denver for the snow to stick around long :)

We get an occasional May snow. This is the latest snow in 47years. We have proper snow trucks. CDot does a pretty good job on the main roads.
