Happy iPhone Launch Day!!!
The Day We All Have Been Waiting for Is Finally Here!
What's today?
It is Friday, September 24th, 2021. Today is a very
SPECIAL day. The most important day of the year. It is iPhone launch day. First, I would like to thank you for being here. Second, I like to let each one of you know today is our day. It is your day. The day we have been waiting for is finally here. I expect everyone to receive their iPhones smoothly. Today will be the day we will never forget. We are going to have a very busy day. We are here to celebrate. I am happy to announce today we will be unboxing our brand-new phone. This iPhone will be with us for another year. I want everyone to celebrate and share the excitement together. This is the day we have been waiting for this whole entire week. If you have followed this thread since the beginning, you know it was not an easy week. We experienced a lot of panic attacks, anxiety, curiosity, wondering if we are going to get that departure scan.. wondering if we ever going to leave China behind. I’m very proud to say no one was left behind. Everyone made it out safely from China. As every year, I was the last one to leave China and Kentucky 😊
What happened this year?
Well, we learned Cargolux has been dropped by Apple. Cargolux was the main shipping carrier that was used by Apple during the pandemic in 2020. Some of you mentioned Cargolux was being used directly for Apple distribution centers, warehouses, or stores. That could be true but I believe UPS is the main shipping carrier now. I expect UPS to carry out all the iPhone 14 in the year 2022.
What makes this whole experience special?
Once you open your iPhone box. I want all of you to remember what we went through this entire week. It is good to note, one week ago from today… we just were placing our orders for iPhone 13. It’s unbelievable to understand our iPhone was in China routed to the Republic of Korea…then to Anchorage, Alaska, and then Louisville, Kentucky following up to your house within just one week. As we experience things in life… If you ever get to travel to go to China, Korea, Alaska, Kentucky… You will remember this thread very well. This thread will always remind you what you went through as long you were promised an iPhone launch delivery day. You will understand and experience the feeling of your iPhone being at the airport location. It’s a very special feeling. It's just hard to explain. But, you get the points.
Why do we do this every year?
We had a few people in this thread asking us… calling us out… why are obsessed with following the planes? Everyone is getting their iPhone delivered on September 24, 2021… So, what’s the point of being here? What’s the point of tracking the flights down? Why are you so crazy about chasing the planes?
Well. Let me break this down for you. I have been upgrading my iPhone since 2008 every single year. I have not missed a single year of not upgrading an iPhone. I love iPhone. I believe it’s the most revolutionary and innovative product of this world. Therefore, a lot of us here share the same exact or similar story. We are die-hard fans of an iPhone. iPhone is something we spend more time on than we spend with our own family.
Let's talk about the numbers... Visitors count 479K+... over 13K+ posts... Within just 1 week! The numbers don't lie. I believe we broke a record! Thanks to all of you!
People that are in the China, UK, Europe, Australia, Canada, and other major continents do not have the luxury of what we have here. It is a blessing to be able to experience tracking our iPhones straight from the assembly plant in ZhongZhou China. We are very lucky and blessed to be able to track our iPhones straight from Zhangzhou, China. It is then, our lovely journey begins and we all get to know each other on a different level. We all get to share our excitement and emotions. There are plenty of people here who do this every single year including myself. I’m very proud of it. We are just very cool people.
What’s NEXT?
Set the timer already! The iPhone 14 event predictions have already been made in this article which was posted by MacRumors on last Sunday. Check it out, I expect to see all of you back to pre-order the new iPhone 14!!! We will all reunite again. I would love to see all of you come back here! We will start all over again!!!
Thank you to everyone for being so supportive! I appreciate every single one of you. This has been an amazing experience. I was able to learn a lot from you and I’m sure you were able to learn from each other. Today, we will be sharing our excitement and happiness together. Until next time… I expect to see all of you for the iPhone 14 pre-ordering night. 😊

By the way, I took a day off from work for all of you so I can spend time with you all. Believe it or not, I have only slept for 3-4 hours every single night and I’m very tired and exhausted. I need a vacation. Ready for iPhone 13! @MacRumors @arn
