There’s been weirder stuff! Remember how a few of us last year didn’t get updates, then for some reason UPS went all “debug mode” on us and gave the actual dates on where our devices were and why it was held up. If memory serves me well, I think a number of ours was rejected in China for not having full documentation leaving customs. It was neat seeing the detail.
 
Happy Wednesday! Fingers crossed for you to get on a plane today!!! Goodbye sounds so sad 😢 esp since we will all be here together until all our babies have made it home - and the annual reunion every year! 💜💜💜
Fingers are crossed and there's alot going on today. I hope I see movement today. See this post :)

4 more days until I officially say goodbye to this one. I really hope the trade in credit for this is indeed $790. I took good care of this, no scratch, no dents. In perfect condition. Only used for 10 months and 25 days.View attachment 1839377 still no movements after 4:50pm scan and I am 100% not worried. Our iPhone 13s will be here Friday!!!
You had me wondering. I re-visited the Apple page, seeing "Up to $790.00"
I don't recall if it said "up to...," maybe I'm wrong.

My "pre-pre order" going back to last Thurs night., this showed $790.00 for my 256GB iPhone 12 PM (I eventually pay 409.00, nothing else, no "*", fine print nonsense)

So when I do bring this 12 Pro Max back Fri night to Apple - not mailing it. I expect $790.00...no if and or buts. Not a single scratch, dent, ding, crack on this phone, it's mint.

In other news, my Green Pro case showed up (from apple) yesterday, but was a Golden Brown Pro Max case instead, so now I have to wait for them to receive the wrong one and them to ship me a new one.
 
Good morning! Woke up to some movement finally!
Arrived ZZ: 9/19 @ 04:50
Departed ZZ: 09/21 @ 23:30
Arrived ANC: 09/22 @ 03:10
Departed ANC: 09/22 @ 04:12

Two flights from ANC to SDF that left around that time: 5X93 (an UPS MD-11) and N8583 (a National Airlines B747-400; probably chartered by UPS). Looking forward to an arrival scan between 1pm and 2pm today!
 
This isn’t a party until you get out! Why does this happen to you every year…:confused:
I have no idea. I couldn't believe it either. It's been a very stressful day and worrisome few days. I just want to leave China and see some activity. Ready to go!

Maybe, UPS got mad I had internal sources running or maybe history is repeating itself. Either way, I'm stuck in China :(

I’m in LA too. Part of 450 crew but I’m already in Kentucky. But maybe will fly together to Los Angeles where do you think we’re going do you think we’re going to LAX or do you think we’re going to Ontario? Because in the past I’ve gone to both airports with other iPhone launches.
I’ve seen them both as well. Don’t remember what it was last year, but I want to say Ontario is probably the best bet.
 
Good morning @GrumpyMom , I think I had the same issue last year. Could the phone you ordered under your husband‘s account? My husband ordered two phones, one for me and one for his. Both under his name. I was pissed cause I could not get the full tracking number because both were under his name. I tried adding his name as a household member under my account but it was not successful due to having his own account. Since he is really not using his my choice account, we deleted his account and added his name on mine. Boom. both of our phones showed up under my choice. I hope this is helpful? I think only one account per home address. But I could be wrong.
Hi good morning Anjo10. I ordered the phone separately from Apple under my own account. But it’s possible there’s something loopy going on with my My Choice Account. I will see if I can get it sorted using what you wrote as a guide. Thank you so much!
 
I hit Kentucky this morning. This is the earliest I've ever been. Majority of the previous launches have me ship out today (Wednesday) and begin the nonstop journey to Houston like clockwork. Apple logistics is a different animal...
Same here already in Kentucky, but it will sit there until Thursday evening
