Looks like classic sunburn to me. I have had similar events. Turns out the trip in the box acclimates the plant to lesser light. Plus you are far enough north that the UV is pretty high. I'm going on record here (you guys that track this sort of thing just watch) but I'll just bet the plant is OK and pulls through fine but you lose these leaves. Want to bet?

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)
