I got an exception when I called to hold at a CC. The exception was lifted when my device left China.

I think it's the request processing then. I don't think the request goes through until the next scan.

Yes lord my watch escaped from Shanghai and is on the way somewhere.

My XS Max 64gb unlocked had an expected delivery of 28th-5th but just moved to preparing to ship.

Same thing happened to me this morning. My CC was also charged around the same time. Not sure what it means but I’m hoping for a delivery early next week

If you use MyChoice on the UPS app does yours show "Exception" on the list view?

Mine does not. It says In Transit.

Remember those planes from China cross the international date line.

Hey man, good to see you again! haha what are you getting? I went with iPhone XsMax 256 in gold! I have never owned a Gold phone so I'm excited!

I did the XS MAX Space Grey 256GB. I almost went with the Gold, but I don't think I have the street cred for that.

Mine shows In Transit everywhere except that one page

My Max left ZZ yesterday directly to Anchorage, but my wife's XS is still sitting at ZZ. I expect it will leave there in the next few hours.

It’s funny... that’s exactly what I ordered too and that’s the last update for mine as well. I wonder if all of these are sorted my size and color and shipped that way. My wife’s gold max 256 has already departed AK

UPS 99 should be landing in 1 hour so we will see if the Incheon phones get any scans

 

[qwerty1202]

Do we think the ZZs are gonna catch a direct flight tonight? I’m worried AFFFFF

 

[IFortWorth]

For my fellow Chek Lap Kok friends, looks like the cutoff for us is 6:30 AM CDT Thursday. That is when UPS 63 is scheduled to leave HKG. It gets into Louisville 1 - 2 AM, which is plenty of time to go through the sort and get out to everyone on Friday. So, as long as we are on the way by then, either on that flight or an earlier charter, we'll be good to go. Anything after that we will just have to find a way to bill Apple for lost sleep since getting up in the middle of the night for a launch day phone will have been for nothing. However, I still fully expect to pick up my new Xs from my UPS CC on Friday morning.

 

[ridenourda03]

Mine shows In Transit everywhere except that one page

That's weird. I'm hoping to see that Arrival in Anchorage this afternoon. Mine still shows 9/21 delivery day.

All the years I've pre ordered, my phones have always delivered on Launch Day. Except for one that was affected by a Typhoon near China. (#TeamTyphoon) haha. Ended up delivering on Saturday instead of Friday.

Pack up your bags, I guess your only option is to move to ZhengZhou.

These scans are like lifelines now. Every step ep is sucking life out of us.

Same for me too.

So that leaves tonight USA Times I’m guessing?

Mine still shows 9/21 is well i think it's just my pickup request processing

our only hope is that the plane(s) was not scanned properly and it is really in flight ....

 

[IFortWorth]

7:30 PM in Hong Kong, which is 6:30 AM Thursday here in Central. That should be 5:30 AM Mountain.

Sweet. I'm in Kalispell. Looks like you missed Korea. Hoping to see an Anchorage, AK arrival soon.
