UPS Confirms Saturday Delivery

A UPS Import/Export representative has confirmed that their agreement with Apple guarantees iPad delivery by end-of-day Saturday. She had my tracking information in front of her, and the fact that my address is way out in the sticks will "make no difference".

Keep the faith - IM

 

I have my fingers crossed for you. My tracking info still shows it is in China, so I may be out of luck.

 

Don't worry Ghuda. They air freight these things over. Give them 20 hours and they'll be stateside.

 

How many 1.4kg packages can you get on a 747??

 

I am spending way too much time on this .......

I just talked to Apple again and she was nice enough to listen to my rant, (not insignificant) and then called the UPS international shipping guru's and confirmed my delivery on Saturday.....

 

Mine too, but don't worry--I ordered an extra cable for my iPod when I ordered the iPad, it left China on March 19 and was in Pittsburgh, PA on March 20. I have faith that we will all get our iPads on Saturday.

 

Talked my regular UPS driver today (Wednesday) and she did not know about the Saturday delivery date. I wonder if UPS is sub-contacting out some of the delivery locations?

Checked my package and it's in LOUISVILLE, KY, US

 

That's a better response than *I* got from them. Hopefully that holds true for all of us! *** fingers still crossed ***

 

It may have been due to my childish rant. She was a pro and very polite, but I imagine in the background she was saying "will someone please get this moron off my phone?"

 

Told ya....
