Well anyone who has an arrival into korea today, your phone (along with mine) should be on this flight.

Unless your phone arrives in Korea an hour or later before the flight leaves it should be on there.


All signs are pointing to a Friday delivery with expedited shipping.

Can't wait!

On the same boat with you. I called Apple to get my shipping changed from Chicago to Baltimore I hope I didn't screw myself and it still arrives here tomorrow. Has anyone changed their shipping destination?
 
Got shipping email at about 4 am and finally got my tracking number to work.
I'm hoping it gets here before the 10th, it shouldn't take a whole week to get here!

I think mine is on the same flight as yours but it didnt give me a delivery date yet. Thats crazy if it takes that long to get delivered.

What's weird is our arrival scan is identical but delivery date for ours is the 9th.

And 10th is technically less than a week.

Oh wait I'm wrong. We got the 7th not 9th and 10th is a week. I'm not awake clearly.
 
I've been stalking for several days, guess I'll post my info now to help others who are playing the waiting game.

Ordered a 32GB Gold AT&T from Apple.com, confirmation e-mail received at 2:11 am CST on 9/20.

Order finally switched to shipped last night, here's a screen of my log so far.

I'm curious to find out what type of shipping those of you who got free expedited are receiving, and those who went with regular shipping. I paid for expedited when I ordered, and my order is being shipped Worldwide Express Saver, which is faster than Worldwide Expedited I think? (not sure)

The worldwide Express Definitely seems to be moving faster. Usually just 2 days and the package is at your doorstop. I'm part of the expedited and it looks like mine with have taken 5 days.

Update

Confirmation email 02:11:20 CST
AT&T 64GB Gold 5s

Woke up this morning and PREPARING FOR SHIPMENT!:D
 
Here we were seeing people getting free expedited and thought we'd wasted money. Kinds nice to know it was worth it in the end.

Yeah definitely. Happy to hear you'll be seeing it soon. Plus it's great to have definitive info on the shipping. I recommend to anyone who hasn't had their phone shipped to try and request it through apple before it does.

It looks like these are the Shipment times:

Worldwide Express - 3 business days
Worldwide Expedited - 5 business days
 
On board this flight as well

Yup my phone is on that plane also! I'm really hoping for a Friday delivery!!

I still have a Friday delivery date here in NJ. Fingers crossed!
And thank you for the link Mannie!
BTW- I called early on and they upgraded my shipping for free (I had called to switch from the standard shipping and was prepared to pay the extra $10) to 2-3 day shipping, which they told me was the fastest available. If it really hits my doorstep in NJ on Friday, that will surely be as fast as they could possibly ship it because it left China this morning. I have Worldwide Express Saver shipping.

mine is the exact same as yours and i think the express saver is faster as i got next day delivery free of charge from a manager at apple. It says monday delivery but im praying for tomorrow :)
 
I went with standard shipping and on UPS it says WorldWide Expedited. Kinda wish I had paid the extra 10 dollars, but what's a couple more days of waiting compared to what I've already waited?
 
7-10 and 8-11

Mine shows delivering the 10th...sucks it takes a week to get here.

How'd I know both it would be the later of the projected dates lol...:(

But it is what it is...I'll be happy soon :)
 
i wonder how many of you will actually "use" the free case that they gave you :)

i knew i wouldn't which is why i opted for the exclusive incase mini car charger
 
Yay

Yay! Mine shipped too....Scheduled Delivery 10/10 - Silver 32gb ATT

I'm glad everyone that paid expedited is really getting the benefit from it.

Boo to Apple because I will be gone and no one will be home on 10/10 or 10/11 and I may end up having to drive to the UPS center to pick it up(Really, I understand this is not their problem,thanks for reminding me.) But the bad customer service come in when, I drive by an Apple store 2 times a day and I could have ordered for pickup there on Monday 9/23 or...I could have ordered a Gold 32gb for pickup on 10/1, but there was no clear way to cancel the online order in time to reserve one for pickup.
