I remember that! 😂 Your phones drowned their sorrows in the airport bar while you all did the same stateside. Meanwhile I was still embroiled in ordering snafus or in processing 😩

Ordered the exact same as you. Im picking up in store for the first time ever. My UPS truck comes too lateIf you had the option to choose in-store pick up at your local Apple store and was able to choose 8 am slot, that would have been the fastest way.. I ended up just ordering for delivery instead. When I got on right when it open, the available for in-store pick up was not available for Sierra Blue Sim-Free 1 TB Pro Max.
Im getting my phone delivered to my office, which is normal for me, but I recently started a new job and don’t know when the truck usually comes! At my old office it was 3 doors down from the ups cc and we were the first stop!
I remember that!!! That was crazy!!! I really hope we see some movement tonight or overnight! It's always exciting tracking!Correct! I expect to see some activity this evening or later tonight. Expect iPhones to start shipping and traveling out from China on Sunday.
Last year, huge pallets of iPhones missed the flight and there was a slight delay for the iPhones to be out of China on time. I believe it was the #9:20 gang. Believe it or not, Apple had to pull the strings. Make the calls, There was a panic attack there. The Cargolux Aviation team confirmed it with me. For reference see below, please

Thank you.❤️ Those are my “firstborn sons” and my link to sanity at the time. They have been gone for many years, but I miss them daily.
OMG I forgot about this.. I was part of this gang last year. 🤣Correct! I expect to see some activity this evening or later tonight. Expect iPhones to start shipping and traveling out from China on Sunday.

OMG!!!! ATTENTION LAST MINUTE CREW!!! 9:00PM CREW!!! Anyone who is left in ZZ CREW!!! Here it is! This is not your regular flight. This is a very high-end first/business class. We’re talking over-the-top amenities, unlimited WIFI, spacious seat, personal space, fresh food, fine dining...forums.macrumors.com
You will be tracking the truck patterns this week at work.
Well, Amazon delivered my awesome new Pitaka carbon fiber case today, I have to look at it all week with no iPhone to go with it.
Oh for sure! They didn’t get any this week to try and figure it out lol
So you know exactly what I’m talking about 😂 it was a hot mess!!!
Safe to say yes, I've never had one arrive late, but I know some people have. Every year some people suffer a snaffoo but delivery times are correct for most people.I think it’s safe to say that most of us who preordered right away this morning will have our phones Friday
My Midnight case came in. It definitely has a hint of a dark blue in it.
Yes I was part of the 9:20 gang with my 12 pro max. Now part of the 1TB 13 ProMax crew whose time slipped to 10/6-10/12 after 5 minutes plus- my app wouldn’t even open till 5 past and the stupid one minute to reverify my card entered in the pre-preaproval processes cost me opening day.Correct! I expect to see some activity this evening or later tonight. Expect iPhones to start shipping and traveling out from China on Sunday.
