Don't be ridiculous, I don't use those pink weights. I use the yellow weights. 🤣
Talking of McDonald's, I succumbed, had two double hamburgers with a small black coffee. I discarded the bun and put the burgers inside two slices of zero carb bread.
Crying with laughter! 😂🤣😂🤣😂
 
I’m just like all of you people. There is nothing special here. The only difference is I had internal sources running and working for me right after the iPhone was launched. Apparently, Apple have changed it’s cargo shipment for this year. Last year was more reliable because Apple used CargoLux solely because of the pandemic. It was a promising information. This year does not seem to be the case. I wish I had set up a back up plan but I didn’t :( I wasn’t expecting this was going happen. You gotta understand I’m dealing with a 2 trillion dollar company. Tim Cook is a mastermind and he is a genius in supply chain. He knows what’s up.

With that being said, don’t worry we will all depart from China soon. Expect a departure scan. All of us are stuck in China and it’s time to get out soon than later. We don’t have much time left. 😩

We are definitely getting on that expedited route via air ✈️

Has anyone here had luck in getting UPS to hold their phones at a local CC? I can’t wait all the way to 5pm-ish on Friday as I’m going out of state for my wedding anniversary on that day.

No worries, @TheYayAreaLiving We are all just grateful that you have taken the lead for our tour groups ❤️
 
I see this and it makes me sad :-( Still in China apparently and I don't know how/where to check what might be happening with it, regarding the next flight.

It’s a waiting game. We are all waiting to get a departure scan soon. All will be unveiled on Thursday evening PST. Be on the look out.
 
I used the email link from this thread, and it took a day to hear back but they confirmed I am good to go for CC pickup Friday - though as of yet I haven't seen a change in the tracking but we'll see if it catches up as things move.
Could you repost the email link? This is a lot of pages to go searching. Thanks!
 
6:05 crew here. Don't you just hate getting stuck at the airport because of delays with nowhere to go? :(
6:05 crew also. Your post brought up a slew of memories. My DH was long with a company that provided tech support to TWA/Northwest/Delta. As a benefit, we traveled all over the world … standby list. Required to wear coat/tie and dress/pantyhose. We would often be in airports for 24 hours at a stretch. So yes, to answer your question 🤣

Hmm. I've been doing some catching up...has anyone else had theirs land/report being in Louisville? I'm pretty surprised, I ordered mine the morning of the release but it was pretty late, about an hour after pre-orders opened. Not much of a reason mine should be before other folks I'd guess haha.

Ordered a 13 Pro 256GB in Graphite.

You guys should have planned ahead however many years ago and not gotten married on iPhone Christmas Day! J/K

Happy Anniversary! I think some people have had luck by calling UPS or by going in and asking.
 
Mine (512 GB Sierra Blue Pro) is still “Preparing to Ship” even though it’s got the 9/24 delivery date still promised. Maybe it’s already in the US and hiding in a warehouse somewhere! My order was in and confirmed before my husband’s but he’s had a tracking number since early this morning. His is still sitting in Zhen Zhou though.

It will say shipped after it is scanned in the US at their Worldport in Louisville. At that point it has already cleared customs and is ready to leave to your local air hub. Apple will know at that point it is en route.
