just got the same scan. and never got the first scan
I believe, as I said above, that your phone and others were actually on the 9:55p Departure flight but didn't get processed properly, so they resubmitted ALL shipments on that flight...hence the second 2:40 Departure some like myself are seeing now.
looks like it is on "Korean Air Lines Co. 8241"

Interesting thought, we will see once UPS99 gets to Alaska.

She was just delivered and she's soooooo pretty!
OK...weird info from UPS Agent on Chat. Told me my phone is in transit and next destination is Louisville! I asked and agent confirmed that they do sometimes use non-UPS planes, so this might be part of an effort to fix the shipping delays. If the agent is correct, watching UPS99 would seem pointless. Need to find what flight it might be on. What fun! A challenge 
Overall they appear to be quick getting them to Louisville after arriving at PANC. That said, mine sat an extra day. When chatting with UPS as to why, they said it was because the phone was "sorted incorrectly" and would add a day to the delivery.
I don't see anything direct to Louisville, as I believed was the case. It must go through Anchorage, Detroit or Atlanta. Or maybe the stop in Anchorage is different and the Agent can't "see" it as a destination?? Agent said they are unable to see the exact route.OK...weird info from UPS Agent on Chat.

That's is a good deal moving to t-mobile... now you got me thinking if I should do the same, I've been with AT&T since iPhone 1... haha.. but they screw their costumers so bad every couple of years by changing the plans and what not... I will check out T-Mobile today.. and yes, I feel the same as you do on waiting for the jet black and returning mine.. Why emotional? I can only imagine a lot crying and sleepless nights cursing the iphones gods...
Yeah, I didnt see anything either. I would think they are on UPS99 or KAL8241.

Does anybody know what time apple stores get shipments? And when those are reflected on the site?
no idea on when shipments arrive, but thought the general consensus was store inventory was updated around midnight.
My gut tells me they are all on UPS99 and stopping first at Anchorage since there is no way direct to Louisville. As for Korean Air flight, I doubt it since that would mean the cargo scanned the exact minute (2:40am) the plane was pulling away. The UPS99 flight departure, however, was around 20 minutes AFTER the scan, which seems more reasonable. We will all know more once it lands in a little over an hour...once they get around to scanning and updating.
When someone sees an Anchorage scan, please post ASAP!!!

I say it's emotional because I've had an iPhone forever. Always was able to get the phone on launch day with the exception of that unfortunate AT&T order with the iPhone 5. I'm sure you understand Apple loyalty. I've had I don't know how many iPads, Macs & I even have an Apple Watch! I LOVE my Apple products. It's just hard waiting but I'm sure it is for everyone. You should definitely check out T-Moble. I was only with AT&T because back in the day they were the only carrier with the iPhone.That's is a good deal moving to t-mobile... now you got me thinking if I should do the same, I've been with AT&T since iPhone 1... haha.. but they screw their costumers so bad every couple of years by changing the plans and what not...

We'll know in about 2 hours. UPS99 is due to land in an hour and change.

I also have the 2:40 AM departure scan. Crazy...
Congrats!! Just got mine as well. Things went fast as soon as it got to Anchorage.
Ordered Black 7 plus 128gb Verizon on 9/14, delivery window was 10/7-10/14 and received 10/6. UPS delay was frustrating but still got it a day before the delivery window.
I am happy for you. Thanks for your feed back on here. My phone is still out there some where. It would be nice to have it in my hands soon. It supposed to be on the UPS truck somewhere in the neighborhood. I hope they don't send it back to Zing Zing. LOL
Yep, same exact track as me. Our phones are travel buddies. Now let's see if Hurricane Matthew has any impact.I just got my departure scan!
I know!
