Spoke to Apple wondering if tracking info is delayed or not and they said no. They'll have a more precise date when it's actually with ups. So I guess apples dates don't mean much at this point.

I'm sure this will stay on the same plane (UPS99) and depart in 1 hr 50 minutes to KY?
Yes most likely. Wouldn't make much sense to offload it when it just has to be loaded back on or onto another plane heading to the same destination.

Only sometimes does this happen if there is other cargo that has to come off.

Apple gave me a delivery date of Monday the 10th when they marked it as shipped. Once UPS had it, UPS quoted me yesterday the 5th. Then some sort of delay occurred in Korea, and if they follow normal procedure, delivery tomorrow the 7th is likely.

So in my case, Apple's delivery dates didn't mean anything.

I'm in Kansas City..I'm sure mine won't get delivered until Friday. Its a long tip to KY from Alaska
[doublepost=1475791319][/doublepost]I'm laughing at the people that got the initial delivery date of 2-3 days and they are expecting to have it that soon....How little do they know the struggles that they are about to experience...2-3 days turns into pretty much a week.

Ordered mine on 9/16, went to shipping on 10/1. Short story, it goes stateside on 10/5, then to L'Ville. Delivers to Cincy, but inexplicably UPS forgets to put it on the truck, even tho it scanned to 'out for delivery'. They tell me I can pick it up at the service center, but then call me back and say I cant pick it up until after 7, and they close at 8. They offered to have UPS Air deliver it to my home after 6pm. I'm 50/50 on expecting it tonight.

Multiple calls to UPS customer service, each person with a different story or excuse. One person on their 1-800 line specifically asked if it was a 'new iPhone' that was being delivered. Guessing quote a few folks have been lighting UPS up over the past few days. Apple more or less is cranking out everything they can. Their at the mercy of UPS basically. Don't forget that on any new launch first pass yields are lower than usual, and that applies to all models, and the Jet Black casing takes quite some time to produce, and the yields are much lower than expected, 6 or 7 out of 10 are acceptable. Just hold tight, and trust that Apple is holding UPS to the fire for this.

The time is 3:20PM where is my iPhone? It says it will be here before 3:00PM. I am here North of Seattle at Shoreline. My truck had it on board at 4:24AM. Do you see it down there? Ask the UPS Driver if he has seen it. LOL

Haha, still haven't seen mine yet either, and that's pretty crazy, yours has been out since 4AM and you still have not gotten it. My scheduled delivery was a N/A for the past few days until it arrived in Seattle this morning. Mine doesn't have a set time to come but I think all UPS orders are "by the end of the day" which is around 8PM I think. WE WILL GET OURS SOON!

The dates were Oct. 4 thru Oct. 10. We hope we will get here before these dates but so far I am getting to wonder. LOL
That's not good for me :( I got dates 10/14-10/27, I will be out of town from 10/15 to 10/19, so on the best scenario either I got mine before 10/14th or after 10/19 :( and as per your delivery dates, I think I will get it after 10/19

Got my phone about 5 p.m. But I cannot open the sim-card tray. The needle can be inserted into the hole on the tray with about 5 millimeters for the iPhone 6s. But for my iPhone 7 Plus, it just inserts a little, like one millimeter. Contacted apple support, the rep said it should be the manufacturing problem or something what. Have to send it back and wait for another week at least.
