I wonder if the tracking is playing catch up in the database and we will jump through a bunch of statuses.
 
Yours moved from Louisville though
That’s what’s weird, I saw the update it went to Minneapolis earlier this evening and everything was showing on time for tomorrow. Then it just updated a few minutes ago to show arriving Monday afternoon now and then had the new added timestamps of weather and the non-UPS broker.

Yeah I’m seeing a bunch of scans that weren’t there before. A severe weather delay back in China from Sept 16 :confused: Date also got pushed to Monday now. We’ll see what happens after it crossed the border.
 
Just went through last years thread. Someone had it leaving Louisville at 4am on the Friday and a bunch of scans in Ontario and Ottawa by 9 am. Seems like tracking was playing catchup then.

I live on Vancouver Island and mine left Seattle at 6:32pm tonight with an estimated delivery date of Sept 24 (earlier tonight said Sept 20). But last year I would’ve sworn it wasn’t going to make it for launch day and it sure did, so I’m not too worried. I’m sure they’ll pull through and it’ll show up tomorrow 👍🏻

This is totally BS if it's truly delayed. Mine also show september 23 now. It really sucks. Can't believe they cant make deliveries on Saturdays. I specially pre-ordered in the first 5 minutes to get it on release day. Both Apple and UPS drop the ball if it not come tomorrow like it should.
 
I live in Toronto and am in the same boat with the UPS tracking stating the package will be delivered on Monday. Apple Store tracking still states that the delivery date is today (20th).

I just checked the tracking and it just got an update scan at 12:40 AM that the package has arrived in Buffalo, NY. So it’s getting closer. Not sure why UPS didn’t just fly direct to Toronto.

Worst comes to worst I can live with my old phone for a couple of more days.

EDIT: Status update 2:31 AM EST - Package is now being prepared for customs clearance

Mine has the same customs scan at 2:31am and departed Buffalo at 3:53.

It’ll be a miracle if they get it on the delivery truck on time. I’ve had it happen before with some international packages but the package left Buffalo an hour or two earlier.

I get why Apple does this and it makes sense for US orders given they’re already in the country they have to be in/cleared customs, but the ones going into Canada, they really should have started this journey on Wednesday so that Thursday the packages could just make it to the delivery facility so Friday delivery is assured. All this clearing customs and traveling to get into Canada would have been better Wednesday.

Fingers crossed we all get out for delivery scans. UPS still shows they’ll deliver today. I’m not so certain. I’ve had packages just miss getting loaded on to the truck and then later in the day it gets rescheduled to the following business day.

EDIT: UPS now shows my delivery date as Monday. :)

3:53am Buffalo, NY
5:48am Pending release…

There is no estimated delivery on UPS.(Toronto)

If the delivery gets pushed back I will pick up another one from store and return the UPS when it’s delivered. Next year I’m picking up from store, home delivery’s not worth the stress😑

Yeah. Based on how things look, very disappointing experience and totally preventable had things not sat around in Louisville for days, knowing they still have to get into Canada and get through customs. This is my first year pre-ordering for delivery.

I’m not expecting to get my phone today and to have it sit around in a warehouse all weekend unless UPS is kind enough to do a Saturday delivery.

Totally avoidable. I’m just waiting on a delivery update from UPS, and I’m ready to order a new one for pickup
I promised myself a new phone today and I’m getting one no matter what. Not backing down:D

Update: Officially moved to Monday. Here we go.

Okay. Maybe there is some hope: 5:40 I have an arrival scan at Concord, ON. I live in the GTA so if things move fast from here, they could get it on the truck. I’ve had the Brampton and Caledon facilities handle my deliveries in the last year or so. It always used to be Concord.
