Has anyone seen status change from "Pkg shipped; delivery being scheduled" now that UPS99 has left Korea headed for Anchorage? I don't know if I will be among the lucky ones, but SOMEONE on this chain should be. For now, I just keep checking my status of course. There is also the chance no one will see a change until the plane lands this afternoon

exactly.

There must be someone whose package must be in UPS99 and I hope that someone is on this group !

I hope there is a chance of positive updation till the flight lands in Anchorage

I'm waiting for my old phone trade-in to be processed (which is a nightmare!) before I can place an order. That being said, I'm on the fence between a 7 Plus Silver 128gb and a 256gb. Does anyone think a 7 Plus Silver 256gb would be shipped any sooner than the 128gb?

I could be wrong but I think stock issues will soon be resolved, so I would be less concerned now than at launch about what color/size you order. Some may still be a little quicker to ship, like Rose Gold, but I would expect the difference to be less and less as time goes by.

So do you think we will see any movement this week? Cuz by now I'm thinking of cancelling my order....

I really don't know, the way things have been going probably won't see any movement. I just checked my Apple app & for the 27 straight day my order is still processing! I'm looking at any & every other place to find a phone. Target, Best Buy, istock....anywhere!! I'm even looking at T-Mobile because I'm thinking about leaving AT&T. I've been thinking of canceling my order also & just taking my chances of finding a phone. At this point I'm just kind of exhausted. I'm ready to get off this roller coaster. It's disheartening to see people who ordered after me getting their phones when I stayed up all night to preorder 9/9. Let me know what you decided. I'm going to try to ride it out & hope this may be our week.

Here's the latest minsinformation from UPS:

R.: I can see here that your shipment will be forwarded in US today. Please keep continue track your shipment online at www.ups.com for further updates. Hopefully there will be an updates for your shipment on the later part of the day.

Who knows...
[doublepost=1475766203][/doublepost]These guys are too weird:

R.: You're welcome. Is there anything else I can help you with?

John: Not really, unless you can go to Korea and get the package for me!

John:

R.: I am sorry John, I would love to go to Korea however I am unable to get your package since we have a process that needs to be follow.

John: I know - only kidding with you.

R.: Please extend your patience and keep continue track your shipment online for further updates.

Extend your patience...like I have a choice?

Been more than 24 hours now with no update.

No scheduled delivery date.

UPS customer service offers nothing whatsoever - keep tracking your package they say. Thanks.

Apple was at least nice about it and made some guesses, and even acknowledged they've had lots of complaints about UPS in the last 24 hrs, but they don't know either.

EDIT: Holy crow, in the seconds since I took that screenshot and posted it, a Departure Scan from Incheon posted. Thank goodness.

Awesome! I have the same times but no shipment update, i wonder if they are on the same pallet? Did you have the "Pkg shipped; delivery being scheduled" activity?

Yes. If your times align to below chances are you just haven't updated yet.

[rjruiz2]

Trying to understand Apple's concept of first come first served. I've seen people that have ordered beyond my 9/22 date and theirs are being delivered today..... Hmmm.....

For those of you who've had your phones make it to Anchorage, are they typically good about getting cargo on the very next flight to Louisville that leaves around 3p local? Anyone been stuck in Anchorage? I am guessing UPS is better in the States...especially with the bottleneck in Korea and China.

 

[IconIc215]

SO my package that was stuck FINALLY updated.. Still no updated delivery date but some movement is better then none...

Looks like your on the East Coast as well..So after the flight to Anchorage it looks like the flight from there to Louisville will land at 12:49 EST. So depending on how quickly it goes in and out of there to the local hub will open the possibility of delivery tomorrow. If not Monday but have seen some Saturday deliveries so who knows.
