Mine departed Alaska this afternoon. UPS says it’s on time and scheduled to be delivered tomorrow before 9pm.
Mine departed Alaska at 3pm Alaska Time, and it's gonna arrive in Kentucky in 2 Hours.
Weirdly enough, it says it's gonna be Delivered to me August 10, which makes no sense. The Facility in Kentucky is a 2 hour flight from where I am, so I see no reason it should take an additional 5 days. Hopefully this is just a Miscalculation and my iPad arrives tomorrow or at the latest friday.

Did you look up flights from KY to the airport near you?

Mine is likely going to have a stopover in South Dakota before arriving in Canada in my city. Had a few Apple packages from California delivered that way.

To everyone who has a package in alaska (or has departed alaska): It is very likely that you will get your package within a day of it arriving there. UPS managed to deliver to my far away tiny town in PA less that 18 hours after ARRIVING in Alaska, and about 15 hours after departing. Of course YMMV, but I think that's pretty wild. The package also made its way through 5 different UPS facilities AFTER arriving in the US.

Also, my delivery date disappeared after changing to a much later date. Even after leaving Alaska, the date was not confirmed. Only after it arrived in Kentucky was the delivery date updated; I don't think they want to give you a delivery date they are unsure of.

Good luck to everyone who's package has been shipped!

Mine is about to arrive in Kentucky in about 1 hour (I am tracking the flight), and I am in North Texas. The delivery date is August 10. Pretty Wild.

Looking good!!! Updates must take a few minutes to come through. Weirdly, syncreon's tracking says still in England.

I may have just got in early enough for today's deliveries. Fingers crossed.

Hope yours arrives in pristine condition - free of any screen issues like dead pixels or cosmetic imperfections like the ones I received from a third party retailer a month ago!

Yeah ? trying to not get my hopes up.
If it is defective, I'll ask apple to do an advance replacement as I'm not waiting another month without an iPad.
