One of mine has already departed AK and should be landing in Louisville, but the other one still shows it's sitting in ZhengZhou.
Well it will be interesting to see once the one headed to Louisville arrives and some time passes to see if scans update and both phones show up in Louisville. If that happens then those of the 9:20 crew who do not seem to have left ZhengZhou yet will magically all be transported to Louisville.. Time will tell but I have experienced this at least once in this seasonal activity of ours ;-)
 
While I still have a 9:20 scan in ZhengZhu, with no movement, my Baltic Blue ProMax case was just delivered. It’s getting close, but I need movement today!!
I picked up my BB case on Fri., it is really nice! Glad I ordered it on Friday also, there are NO stores within a 80 mile radius from Philly area that have this in stock (as of last night), delivery time was early Dec.

I also think the only ones that are left behind are 9:20 crew. Everyone else has made it to the U.S. soil.
 
Anyone have a good phone number for FedEx? I was supposed to have my 12 pro Max leather case delivered today but I got an email that says it was delivered yesterday to another address that isn’t mine. I’m hoping that it is a mistake and it will show up today.
 
Probably not. Literally every phone can’t fit on one flight lol. Those of us in the 9:20 group still in ZZ are almost assuredly still in ZZ. They’ll likely take the same path today the first group took last night.
Could be my 9:20 phone is less than hour out of Louisville as I write, they must have a big batch in the 9:20 that could not all fit I suppose unless they magically all populate once in Louisville I have seen both.

There’s people with Friday deliveries that haven’t even gotten their origin scan so there’s plenty of phones still left in China aside from the 9:20 group.
 
Good Morning everyone! Happy Tuesday.

It is 5:57AM - Tuesday morning in Las Vegas Nevada.

I see majority of you got your scans in and had plenty of movement since last night. Congratulations! Before making it to the final destination it will stay at KY for a few days with no movement.

I’m still stuck in China - the infamous 9:20 crew. That’s right! Not exactly sure what’s going on. Hope everyone has a good day today.
Same here :(
 
By any chance was there a new restriction for pick up at Contact Center? (CC) I am not getting that option and 90 percent of the time that is how I pickup my UPS packages lol
 
Hope you guys are correct. I’m about to call UPS and find out right now 😂 before getting ready for work
I am just hoping like my - either 6 Plus or 8 Plus - when I had a "stuck" status like this, suddenly out of nowhere it was in Louisville.

I've been checking this on my desktop, but I downloaded the UPS app and I get this "Exception" nonsense.
🤔

(I have to stop checking for now, it only makes my day go longer..LOL)
 
Not all the phones move at once, there are always separate flights, even on separate days. Not new.
Moved to a warehouse in ZZ, now they are chipping away at getting them off to flights. They never all move in unison at once. Plenty of time.
Yep that happens, sometimes though more pallets move than get into scan and they populate once at hub in Louisville. I was one of 9:20 crew that left Hong Kong, but even there it seems the Hong Kong batch got split up mine and others is 4 hours ahead of the second batch from Hong Kong that has made it through Anchorage and on way to Louisville. So while I hope for the rest of you 9:20 folks fireguy may be analyzing things correctly. We shall see by end of day where all the 9:20 crew which must be a big batch just to see the two batches making flights 4 hours apart proves that.
 
FINALLY!

The tracking number that showed up in MyChoice didn’t give me any information so I looked up by reference number. The last 4 digits didn’t match up so I called in to get the correct boarding pass, I mean, tracking number.

The other tracking number was an old shipping label that was never used. Going to have to get tech support to help update my package matching details, but for now...

I should make a flight today!!! Whichever one that will be!! YES!

So, I called UPS International Shipment Department. The UPS girl was very nice she put me on hold and said let me do a thorough research...

2 minutes later she comes back and advises. The package is still currently in China and there are no indication that it is in United States. There are no physical scans or delays. They are just behind moving the package.

9PM crew we will see an update hopefully today or tomorrow. But rest assured we are stuck in China :(

This is my first time ordering at pro-order and getting an iPhone delivered on release day. Apple store is still showing my “Preparing to ship” with delivery date of Friday 11/13.
Now the odd part is I have basic UPS My Choice. Just went to check it and I see an delivery for this Friday 11/13 from AI coming from China origin scan on 11/8 and departed Anchorage, AK 11/10. Although it’s delivery date is “tentative” and status says “Exception”, when I go into that entry it has a status of “in transit:eek:n time”. I’m pretty sure that is my iPhone, but no idea why it’s still showing “preparing to ship” on apple still.
It’s always like that for everyone on Apple’s order page. No need to worry. It’ll change to shipped very late in the process.

My guess is they go out tonight. They do these shipments in 2-3 batches every year. With my X I didn’t get out of China until Wednesday and it still made it. Also sat in Processing status until the Tuesday before. If you have a 11/13 date you’ll get it then.
