Relax if you’re anxious about tracking and it’s the best part, you should know you won’t get tracking for at least 1-2 days..
I couldn't be more relaxed...I have bourbon. ;) I was curious about those who have gone to preparing to shipment, because I've gotten a tracking number while in that status in the past.

Me too...and then you sit there with the tracking number for two days and the only status is “package information given to carrier” or some other BS like that...

Doubtful Im sure they're already in motion.

Don’t be so sure! Mine and tons of others got held up due to a typhoon 2 years ago and ended up bouncing all around Taiwan and Hong Kong before continuing on their route.

Hong Kong (Chep Lap Kok) airport will be closed in the next 12 hrs due to super typhoon, I hope this does not affect the delivery dates
Unlikely those planes can leave Wednesday and still make it to your house Friday. I’ll attach a screenshot of my tracking from last year with my iPhone X

Exactly, and Zhengzhou as the starting airport is almost 900 miles north of Hong Kong and the storm. Flying out northeast to Alaska.

why will this item take longer than usual to ship? Oh well. I'll be out of town until end of next week.
