Same here. UPS now states: "Check back tomorrow for an updated delivery date.”
EDIT: Parcel no longer shows a delivery date either.

Mine went to “preparing the ship Thursday” night, and shipped almost exactly a day later on Friday night.
It‘s stuck in China now, as it is with several of us, and we have all lost our estimated delivery dates. It seems to be a bunch of us affected, and all in the same group with similar tracking times.
I don’t see any new events in the tracking for mine. Last event was “arrived in Zhengzhou”, 8:00 China Time yesterday. Like everyone else, I no longer have an estimated delivery, which was May 27 earlier.
When I checked back in this thread from last week, a bunch left Zhengzhou on Monday, and it seemed several others left on Wednesday. I don’t recall any leaving on Tuesday, so maybe they don’t have any flights headed to either Korea or Alaska on that day.
I have a feeling that we were supposed to be on an afternoon flight to Korea yesterday, and somehow didn’t make it, possibly because ours didn‘t arrive in Zhengzhou early enough to make the necessary transfer. Of course, this is idle speculation on my part. Since this is the first time that I’ve ever preordered anything from Apple, I have no past experience with these things.
About all that we can do is try to be patient (I admit, it can be hard), and hope for the best.
Nothing on my end yet, automated 4:36 message last. but that's certainly still encouraging.
Mine just left Incheon! I guess it's on its way to Anchorage. Apple says 31 May, but the UPS app says tomorrow. Hope UPS knows better LOL - although I find it hard to believe it will get to Anchorage, then Louisville, then come to Toronto, get sorted and delivered, all by the end of day tomorrow.
I still have nothing after the 8am arrival in ZZ... starting to think I am just missing scans.
12.9” Space Gray 1TB, ordered within minutes. Was June 2-6
Shipping update showed delivery tomorrow until this morning when there was an exception and a message “Check back tomorrow for updated delivery date”. Guess it is stuck in china somewhere.
Estimated delivery “on the way, rescheduled delivery”.
Check back tomorrow for an updated delivery date.

This looks exactly like mine... I think there's a good chance we are with the others a bove, just didn't get the scan. It happens. (hopefully)
Yeah the funny part is at this point if it is missing scans we won't know until Louisville when everything's broken down for import and distribution. Going to be some time yet left in suspense...
Wow, just nailed a 12.9 Space Gray iPad Pro (2021) 256 GB WiFi for pickup on Saturday May 29th at my local Best Buy here in north Florida. It looks like the other Apple Stores throughout the state are starting to show stock of 12.9’s but with cellular which I didn’t want. Hopefully Best Buy can come through with that pick up date.
It‘s always a suspenseful game, and this is my first experience with it.
I‘ve been looking at all the tracking updates, and seem to have detected a pattern. Those who seem to be “stuck” have that extra “clearing agency“ scan before it left EPZ.
Mine, and some of the others who have since left Korea and are moving, don’t have that extra “clearance scan”. Could that have something to do with it?
I’m keeping my fingers crossed for all of you.
Mine does not show the extra clearance scan and it is one of the stuck ones. No movement for a few days and check back tomorrow for updates message. Hopefully it starts moving along again soon.
I’m curious, why don’t those who live close to apple stores just get one via in store pickup insstead of waiting for weeks via the pre order? I got one in store on launch day when I set up a instore pickup an hour before the store opened. Most models were available at 10am.12.9 2TB Silver w/cellular, Jun 9-23
I was actually planning to do that, but on Thursday night, mine went to “preparing to ship”, at which point it couldn’t be cancelled. I could have sent it back upon receiving the preorder, but I didn’t just want the hassle for the sake of another week or so. It would have been nice to have one on Friday, but I could still get my preorder as early as Thursday, provided there aren’t any delays.
My Apple Store actually had good stock of the model I was interested in on Friday (512 GB, WiFi), at least when I checked. For fun, I checked the 1 TB as well, both colours, but they didn’t have any.
Good to see another Canadian making good progress, and my tracking is a carbon copy of yours down to the minute on every single scan except the shipping label. It shows that we’re probably grouped together in the same pallet.
My estimated delivery is one day later than yours, but I’m in Halifax. Theres an extra day needed to fly between our two cities.
I‘m sceptical about the estimated delivery time given by UPS as well, but even if it ends up being a day or two later, I have no right to complain, since it was originally supposed to arrive between June 4-10.
Mine was scheduled for delivery tomorrow, but then locked up in ZhengZhou. It shows it now as shipping out from ZhengZhou. UPS says to check back tomorrow for a rescheduled delivery day, but Apple shows my arrival data as slipping from Wed May 26 to Tuesday June 01. Hopefully it picks up speed along the way!
