While Apple does not mention the Pope’s visit in its email to customers, UPS has issued a service update noting that deliveries to certain areas of Washington, D.C., New York City, and Philadelphia will be impacted by security measures put in place for Pope Francis’ visit between September 22-27. As Apple notes in its email, however, Saturday deliveries are scheduled, so most of those impacted should have their deliveries in hand a day later.
