UPS status “... transferred to a free zone..”

My MacBook pro finally arrived to canada. I've been following the pacel over the last couple of days and I came up with the status around "...parcel been transferred to a free trade- zone area. "

First time I order a MacBook so don't know what this means.. I do understand that parcels have to pass customs... However, it has already crossed border. Any ideas on this status?

UPS delivery issues? (UK) I had a poor experience with Apple and UPS on delivery of an imac. The delivery was due 2 weeks after the order date. I tried to contact UPS / Apple to confirm a date where i would be at home to receive the package. No such functionality appeared to exist. UPS then tried to deliver a couple of times on a day when i was at work. On the next day (when i was at home) UPS claimed to Apple that they had delivered - although i was at home the entire day and my security camera shows that they didn’t attempt delivery. From subsequent paperwork it is clear that the imac went back to the local UPS depot. When I raised with Apple, they told me it would take 5 business days just to investigate the issue, even before giving a new date for delivery - despite the fact the imac was sat at the local depot. I’d have happily driven there to pick it up! There seems to be a huge disconnect between Apple and UPS in resolving a very simple issue. In the end, my only way of gaining certainty on my imac deliver was to get a refund and reorder. Very disappointing!

Macbook order still in processing, and I have travel plans... what to do? My Macbook 2021 order is still in processing, expected delivery is 8-15 Dec. I am leaving the country (US) on 20 Dec. It will be useless if it arrives after that. What should I do? Plz advise. Is there a number/email which I can reach to? Thanks in advance for the help.
