Well so much for the missed scans theory. Thanks for nothing UPS.
It looks like we’re on the same flight.

I don’t like this latest scan, and have no idea what it means. Maybe it’s something to do with clearing customs for entry into Canada. Also, my estimated delivery is no longer available. It has left Louisville, though, so not all is bad.

(glad to see, though, fireguy286 that yours has left China, even if it ends up being later than expected)
It won't affect the last said delivery date by UPS. All of us Canadians get this scan whenever something transits through Louisville or anywhere else in the US with UPS. It will get to you on time. Source: Every other Apple pre order shipping from China.

Edit: I should add, if you're in a major city like Halifax (I believe you said), then it can get to you over night from Louisville. I'm in Victoria and I always get things over night from Louisville via Vancouver or Seattle.

I accidentally have 2 - 12.9 1TB coming today. I tried to cancel one of the orders, but they won't let me.... The one from Amazon wasn't supposed to get here until next Monday....

For those that made it Korea today (the so called stuck pallet load), does it seem possible to still receive yours by the weekend? I'm guessing at this point it is pretty doubtful with going to Anchorage, Louisville and then on to the receiving city. Still hope it might be possible as I'd love to get mine set up before a longish trip.

ANC is mostly a fueling stop. The flight will be in Louisville just after midnight. They should be on the predawn flights to regional hubs. From there, depending on the timing it's even *possible* to get it tomorrow, depending on one's regional timing to distro centers etc, but Friday is a safer bet. So yes, still very plausible to get by the weekend, again depending how far / hops you need from the airfield.

What, on Earth, is this? Mine arrived in Montreal this AM, and I assume that it is supposed to then fly to Halifax, for my delivery tomorrow.

However, my latest scan is an EXPORT scan. What does that mean? Is mine going to be sent out of Canada and to another country? Shouldn’t I be getting an import scan?

The app still says that it’ll be delivered tomorrow (the delivery time came back once it reached Montreal), and I got an email from UPS as well confirming the delivery since I signed for email notifications.

Have any other Canadians ever seen this?

Yes, left Korea just after midnight tonight Korean time.
Depending on which flight, they get in this afternoon ANC time, and on to SDF for tomorrow delivery

Export from US to Canada? Technically there should be both export and import even for US/Canada even though there’s minimal hassle/customs. I admit I eould expect such a scan to occur in the US, though.

I’m actually worried that somehow, something went wrong with the customs stuff. It arrived in Montreal OK, a couple of minutes after that earlier clearance scan, but about an hour later, I got that “export scan”. It was already in Canada at the time, so that scan would indicate that it’s going to be sent back out of the country. Who knows, but it doesn’t seem right.

However, I see no sign of any “exceptions” in my UPS MyChoice App, and no sign of errors that need attention. I would have thought that if there was a customs issue, it would have said so as an “exception”. It still says that the expected delivery is tomorrow, by the end of the day.

The customs stuff always hits at what seems like random times. I wouldn't worry about that. I also think export means export from the US, but shouldn't matter.

I hope that you’re right, and that the scan was actually referring to the earlier departure from Louisville and was somehow logged in late. The one thing that is reassuring is that I don’t have any UPS exceptions. Surely I would have received one if something had gone wrong.

I haven’t seen any further updates since then. I’m hoping that it will be put on a flight from Montreal to Halifax, possibly tonight, so that I will still get it tomorrow.

It‘s a shame and a source of worry since everything was working like clockwork the whole time, with the only thing that it took a while to get out of China.

Woot! I've been checking daily to see if iPad Pro's are in stock at my local Apple store, and was surprised to find they were! Got a 12.9 silver wifi scheduled for pickup in 1 hour, and I've cancelled my June 9-28 delivery that was still "processing". If you live near an Apple store try adding the model you want into favorites in the store, and keep checking it. You may be able to pick up a lot sooner than they can deliver.

Showed departed from Incheon KR at 5/27/21 12:20AM. Still shows expected delivery Today, but there is no way that would happen unless the scans are way behind.

They do seem to be getting more in stock. My store has what I want except space grey instead of silver. nothing else close by. I still don’t want to try and wangle the special price deal, either, and I’m hoping mine will ship end of this week/early next week (since China doesn’t celebrate Memorisl Day). I have Dort of your window except my worst case delivery date was 6/23 instead of 6/28.

I ordered my iPad (11" 256gb) on the 3rd of May. I haven't had any notifications, other than its status changing to 'Preparing to Ship' last Friday. Since then, I haven't had any updates, any tracking details and when I spoke with Apple yesterday they couldn't tell me where it is. It still says 'Arrives May 21 - May 28) but it's hard to imagine that it will be here when it's still 'preparing to ship'. Is anyone experiencing anything similar?

The adventure continues. Once again, the estimated delivery date has disappeared.
