Yep will prolly see scans when we wake up tomorrow

No the scan will come tonight while we are sleeping to teach us a valuable lesson about wanting rest more than wanting to refresh the UPS page...

Some are probably losing sleep over this.

Oh not me I get my 9 hours in just fine

 

[OBirder]

Any XS preorders with the 3:39 AM on 9/18 into Chek Lap Kok seen any movement since then?

Still in Check Lap Kok since 9/17 4:59 PM.

While I believe the ones from Shanghai and Korea might make it, the Hongkong one after the Typhoon are a different story.

Happy my XS Max Case was just delivered......Waiting patiently for Friday!!

Been away for a bit. Any of you guys figure out what flight we are probably on if still in
Incheon, Korea, Republic of 09/19/2018 7:59 P.M. Arrival Scan?

Plane buddies! That’s the last exact scan I have. 256GB gold XS Max

 

[PhillyGuy72]

Very true. I have seen that as well. As far as past iPhone releases go, I seem to remember knowing for sure sometime on Thursday.

This is my thinking as well, I've had many shipments via UPS, FedEx that looked like they stalled in Somewhere, USA. Next thing I know I have a delivery - - while the site STILL says it's 1000+ miles away. Then suddenly the site updates 1, 2 hours later, UPS states - "Delivered"

 

[nalbagli]

What date where you given when you ordered?

21st, it still appears that way in my order. I hope I receive an update by tomorrow otherwise I find it difficult to belive I am receiving it by Friday

 

[mtrctyjoe]

Yup. XS Max 256 silver

Yep.

 

[Blueline29]

I just realized we get our "shipped" emails from Apple tomorrow !!!!!!!!!!!

I’m super-excited for the “Today’s the day!” notification on Friday on my current AW as well!

Click on track by reference then put in your phone number under the reference number. Hopefully something pops up for you.

Thanks. As soon as you posted the reference reply, I went and search for good ol google. Removed the last 2 digits of my order number and there it is, in Korea. there must be so many iPhones there lol

Cheers!

Reading through most of this over time, many people are just really impatient or this is their first time.

Like many others have said, if you are able to lookup your tracking on UPS, you are pretty much for sure getting it on the 21st. UPS knows what they’re doing. I wouldn’t worry at all. You won’t really get a for sure update on tracking until late Thursday.

not worried.. just something to do while i wait for my phone! some of us have trust issues and need some reassurance

 

[buck1127]

Any bets on what time we will see the first meltdown on here if their tracking doesn’t update?

No trust issues here

We already have seen that hah

 

[will.s87]

But there have been quite a bit of people that are genuinely worried. And it’s fine. I assume it’s there first time. Just another reassurance post.

 

[buck1127]

We already have seen that hah

Will be worse tomorrow.

It has already happened a few times

 

[iApplereviews]

Only some little kid who didn't actually order a phone trying to ruin our fun

 

[buck1127]

Only some little kid who didn't actually order a phone trying to ruin our fun

WOW

 

[buck1127]

WOW

I miss all the fun when I’m at work lol

 

[ThereisnoLisa:onlyCube]

Oh not me I get my 9 hours in just fine

9 hours???

 

[Smash1680]

For anyone worried about the Korea phones, there’s a flight that left anchorage earlier today for incheon. Go check flightaware, you can likely figure out what flight your phone is on or will be on.

 

[OBirder]

And all that have tracking number then?? It won't serve for me, I will ask for a refund if it doesn't arrive by the 21st

It had been posted several times in this thread. Apple didn’t give them any tracking numbers and their orders are still showing preparing for shipment.

Want they did is to use their Apple order number from the confirmation, removed the last two digits and use that on UPS to track by reference.

If you have a confirmation for the 21st it’s highly likely you will get on the 21st.

If not you will not get a lot of support around here to get a refund. If you a plan with only one option without a contingency, than that is not Apples or our problem. It’s yours to own.
