Good catch.so i noticed there are some ups flights leaving alaska and going directly to ontario.... i wonder if there ANY chance that our phone ended up being rerouted instead of going through louisville?
i'm going from a 6s+ SG 128 GB to a 7+ RG 256 GB (hubby's going from 6s SG 128 to a 7 matte black 128 GB)
i wonder how many times i'll wake up tonight and check tracking and flight status!?

Have you used the tech armor before what type of finish does it have I'm in need of a screen protector as wellAt least something good came in today.
My order went from "Processing Items" straight to "Ready for Pick-Up," and I just received an e-mail from Apple with a barcode for check-in when I get to the store. Were they holding them at the store this whole time?? Haha. Good luck everyone waiting for UPS/FedEx to arrive tomorrow!
Those with a 4pm departure from Anchorage,
It's a almost a 6 hour flight. If the plane did leave at 5pm PST it won't arrive till around 11pm PST. Looks like it's been taking about 2-4 hours for transfers and re routes, so if we're lucky it will be back in the air to your local hubs by 1am-3am PST. Not sure if that's likely. More likely is 6-8am PST.
Mine never changed from the 16th.Quit being a downer. UPS changed our delivery date back to the 16th. It will be there tomorrow.

apple does sometimes ship with Fedex or other shipping companies but do expect to get your phone tomorrow
Before the iPhone first launched I used to switch out phones 2-3 times a year I always wanted what was new and trying different things. But since iPhone came out its the only phone I want2 years isn't that long lol
Interesting. Did that happen during our little pit stop in Taiwan?Lots of ours did. For a couple of hours it was the 19th. Then it went back to the 16th.
Let's share some crazy release day stories:
When the 3GS came out, I was going to be in Vegas for the release, so I pre-ordered and had it shipped to my hotel (I think Bally's). Since I had used my wife's upgrade (and she was flying to Vegas the next night due to work conflicts), I couldn't actually activate the phone until she arrived, or else it would de-activate hers (you had to activate your phone with the number it was sold to, then you could swap SIM cards).
For the 4, my phone was delivered a day early (6/23 instead of 6/24), so that was kind of fun. Only time that ever happened to me.
When the 6 came out, I was going to be at a rental beach house, and by then they got smart and only let you ship to your AT&T billing address (assuming you had AT&T, of course), so, knowing that, I changed my billing address to the address of the rental house on the AT&T site, placed my order, then, after the phone had shipped, I set my address back to my actual address on the AT&T site.
Looking back, any number of things (shipping delays, mostly) could have really messed up plans.
Anyone else have any launch day stories to share?
