Also, UPS customer support is telling me they aren't doing windows for iPhones even if you have mychoice premium

I just asked the same thing, they're not doing a 2 hours delivery window.

Someone let me know how it leaving Incheon just now is great?

If it’s going to Alaska, could get help up there.. and if they all go to KY then we’ll wait for that as well.

Are UPS employees ninjas? I’m in California and to think that this will be in my hands tomorrow is crazy lol

Because they have until like 7-8pm tomorrow to get you your phone. They’re held to End of Day delivery committment. So they have like another 36 hours.

Finally got a departure scan.

Me too, our phones will most likely ride all the way to DFW tomorrow together.

I’m on standby to tomorrow, sure hope I don’t work or all this will be for nothing.

One of my XS Max just got the Incheon departure scan. The other is still there.

Mine also does not have a departure scan. Are they going on another flight?

 

[Jordan921]

does anyone else order a bunch of other things during this week? I think I've ordered something online almost everyday to help with my excitement. so ive had a package delivered everyday. its like my own Christmas to myself haha....or I have a problem.

I’ve ordered 4 cases 2 screen protectors. My wife also ordered a new patio set haha.

 

[Anders08]

Same. Pretty excited!

I thought our phones are usually shipped express...but mine shows that it just shipped with a standard delivery to arrive Sept 28. I didn't have a choice of delivery speed when I bought the phone. I remember always getting it quicker than that. Anyone else?

 

[gigapocket1]

hmmmm, is this flight heading straight to Louisville? or Alaska.. if its going to Alaska, I don't know how its going to make it by 8am tomorrow for pickup...

[penajmz]

Finally

 

[Nanotyrns]

Just switched to preparing to ship either last night or this morning. Ordered 9/14 10pm. I was wondering how long it usually stays “preparing to ship?” Thanks!

There are about 6600 posts on the sturm und drang of that entire process but to sum it up - about five of the longest days of your life.

 

[Jimpilot]

Just got a you have a package coming tomorrow email from UPS Choice. Got the one for the watch hours ago. Guess they’re confident it will arrive tomorrow now that it’s left Korea

 

[CarolG]

yessir finally left korea lol
11:07 squad

Me, too! Finally! Are we on our way to Alaska?

 

[AZhappyjack]

7:59 Incheon, XS Max gang here:

I'm reading on Reddit that the systems are backlogged and not updating. Our phones should be on the plane to Kentucky or already in Kentucky!

Incheon gang if our phones aren’t actually in the US by now.. I’m gonna be worried.

I’m glad we can all stress together tho LOL

The Incheon 7:59 group just got the departure scan... 11:07pm... NEVER DOUBTED. This is simply "same stuff, different year"...

 

[Dstopsie]

Any 7:45pm Korea scans leave yet. My important scan was 7:45pm.

 

[UserJalen]

Because it happens every year, they get to Alaska and then the hub in Louisville by around 2 am, and then fly out to all the destination cities right after.

Someone let me know how it leaving Incheon just now is great?

If it’s going to Alaska, could get help up there.. and if they all go to KY then we’ll wait for that as well.

You’re in California don’t forget the 3 hour time difference. It can leave Kentucky at 6AM Kentucky time and make it to your state at 6AM your time.
