Other Sept 28 - Oct 5 Delivery Dates

My daughter's phone that was stuck in Shenzhen for days and then went to Hong Kong and then Taiwan has finally made its way to Alaska. Her phone even shipped a day before mine and mine arrived today.
 
Mine just showed up in Alaska after stopping in Taiwan.

What's interesting is there haven't been any recorded UPS flights from Taiwan to Anchorage in the last 24 hours so I'm guessing they contracted it out to another carrier, either EVA or China air.

Might explain why a big group of us are sitting around waiting to be flown? Interesting.

Restoring from backup as we speak. It's gorgeous! I had a 6 Plus and a 7 Plus and I've missed the larger size phone.
 
There are at least 6 UPS flights heading from Anchorage to Louisville in the next 2 hours. Plus more to the other hubs.

There should be some departure scans shortly and arrivals at WorldPort (Louisville) by 2 am Eastern.
 
I've got the same status as the rest of you, but a delivery date of Wednesday for Los Angeles. Problem is I'm leaving for a a week trip on Wednesday and I'd really love to have it before I go. Alas, I may have to wait.
 
UPS just told me that these haven’t moved because there was a holiday in China this past weekend. Don’t know what to believe after hearing for 4 days that we were really just waiting for system updates from UPS to come through. Now it’s not a UPS system problem but a Chinese holiday. If that’s the case, why did all these other phones move? Also, it’s Tuesday morning in China so it all sounds like BS to me.

The bigger picture point is that there is no longer any need to go through this madness - there is/was plenty of stock in Apple stores on launch day. Lesson learned.

Unless the closest Apple store is two hours away.
