• Anchorage, AK, US
• 09/23/2016 10:41 A.M.
• Arrival Scan

Just hit Alaska! No delivery date yet.

Yep I'm same boat as you! Finally at least it's in the states.

Ton of flights leaving AK to KY in the next few hours. I really hope they suck it up and do Sat deliveries but I'm not holding my breath.

Finally in the USA. Apple rep confirmed on chat that it will be out for delivery on Monday 26.

What time did your flight depart from Hong Kong?

 

[Kilo-9]

What is the point of pre-ordering if my order wasn't even processed yet? BS

Sweet, so my phone should be landing in my area by 5:30ish local time tomorrow morning.

What time did your flight depart from Hong Kong?

It went straight from Incheon Korea to AK. Departed Korea 9:30PM 9/23.

Hey 8:01ers, does anyone know the estimated landing time in anc today?
I called both ups and Apple and they aren't willing to do anything to get our phones to us tomorrow. Very disappointed.

I'm hoping it's on flight 63. Say's the plane will land at about 12:38 AKDT / 4:38 EST. Then on to Louisville and will get there about midnight or so from the looks of it.

From the fiasco that happened in South Korea, they should be working on shipping out these orders asap, especially Saturday.

Add in, "... and people who didn't pre-order can just walk into the store and buy the exact same model," and you have an even more compelling question. Really, what is the point? That's exactly why I reserved the exact unit I ordered for in store pickup. If the Apple store gives me a hard time about switching it to AT&T Next, I'm going to... probably just wait for my pre-order. I just have a time sensitive offer for my current 6, and stand to lose about $50 if I can't get one sooner than 10/7.

12:38 local time.

 

[agente46]

To the 801s, apple's initial eta for delivery was Oct 4-10

So even though it's delayed and might be delivered next week, it's still earlier than Oct 4-10, so you can't really complain to Apple.

If yours left Hong Kong at 7:12pm like mine did then apparently it should arrive in Louisville KY at 7:29pm tonight. (curtesy of flyingpostman)

What makes you think that?

 

[Oridus]

Anybody know what flight the 2:25am Incheon departure is?

Not true! When you get your shipping notification email from "Apple", it has the estimated delivery date. In our case it wasn't Oct 4th - Oct 10th.

 

[skemez1]

flyingpostman has access to better UPS tracking software and has provided expected arrival times for tracking numbers.

 

[Feenix]

I do not know how long it takes for them to unload/load, etc... if mine departed at 2:25 AM from Incheon, the flight to alaska is about 8 hours. So about 6 hours from now putting it in Anchorage near 6-7pm Pacific time.

 

[toddthornton]

What did they say?

They deflected and wouldn't give me an answer. They said they can't give me any answers until the phone hits Louisville.

Yeah when my estimated Oct 4th - 10th shipped early it told me delivery on the 26th. Since then its been bumped up but then hit with delays.

My initial deliver date was 9/22/16, I know they grouped a lot of phones together.

 

[Stow]

Hmm mine left Hong Kong at 712pm and still no update.
