My phone just touched ground in Oakland. Too bad I can't drive there to pick it up today, it's only 15-20 mins from me. I'll have to patient and wait until tomorrow. I just put in the change to have it held at a UPS store near me.
We were on the same plane!
It looks like the storm may be dissipating, at least over the EWR area. Finger crossed!Here’s hoping it’s the last delay so everyone in NY and surrounding areas can get there phones on Friday!
A jug of cream and paper towels? These are not the supplies for "picking up a phone".
The magic of UPS!It’s crazy how my phone can travel from ZZ to Korea to Alaska to Kentucky to Montana within about a 24-30 hour window, every year. Without fail.
That must be terrible!😀
Where are you headed after OAK?First ever preorder so I'm very excited to upgrade from my 32GB 7 Plus to the 512GB Sierra Blue 13 Pro Max. I see the plane for Bay Area iPhones has arrived. View attachment 1842814
I haven't. I got one e-mail last night saying they got my request to hold it and would process it. Usually, in the app or detailed tracking, it shows your Customer Request or an Exception entered - then that a "Hold at CC" type entry is made. I'm starting to think I should have not messed with it and let the truck come as it may...I've done this before and my hold processed while my delivery was on the truck. So the truck person didn't deliver it and just drove around all day with it. I then had to meet said truck at 6pm-ish once it got off-loaded back at the CC. I tried calling today, but couldn't seem to get a human on the other end.
Best of luck to us both! 🤞 🍀
not yet. village drapes tracker no longer showing “hold for pickup” but I got verified by both phone and email that I have a current hold so let’s hope it sticks
Lucky you. I am still in KY since 7:03AM. And no other flights out for rest of the day. Hoping to get on flights between 0030-0400 hrs.
LFG!!!! Who’s with me in Dallas?
Yay! Mine is landing in about 5 more minutes. Here’s hoping UPS delivery comes early tomorrow. 😁It’s landed. At Mather. Sooo close and yet sooo far.
I’m from Eastern New Mexico. Look down and see nothing but flatland grass and cows. HahaLooks like we just flew over the Texas panhandle and are over eastern New Mexico now.
I don’t see the phone. I see some random bootleg milk. Stop playing, dude! Where’s your iPhone! 🙄🙄🙄
I was about to post that. UPS2080 is scheduled to depart in 3 minutes. Keep refreshing your tracking!I know I'm obsessed right now with the weather and my iPhone, but I just got this alert:

Maybe we'll get departure scans now?!
You need that many toilet paper for your iPhone or what? @LFC2020
Thank you. Considering the massive amount of people who pre-ordered I didn't want to hassle anybody. Everything sort of "turned on" today when in the morning I got a text from Apple and then my shipping confirmation email. Was really impressed with everyone last night sharing their access to flight information. It really gave me hope that things would work out. Again, appreciate your help!You can do a live chat with Apple and they will give you your full tracking number. I did it earlier today.
