Mine is still sitting with the arrival scan at 11:30pmmust have missed the Alaska flight grrrrrr
I think we both did. Mine shows that so what flight would that put us on then
Just have to look at the tracking, but it seems the shipped today group is sitting in Zhangzhou waiting to get over to Incheon (Seoul), KR and then to Anchorage AK. The next UPS99 flight from Incheon to Anchorage doesnt leave until ~10:20pm tonight (Tuesday Korea time) so we probably wont see much until later tonight/tomorrow.But how do you know which flight is the phone on?
In past iPhone releases I remember that my iPhone went from China to Alaska to me in the course of 2-3 days. And one time it was in Alaska the day before release and I still got it the next day! UPS Worldwide Express ships pretty fast!

I think this is a good answer (thanks exchguy):

Just called UPS, and rep said that Apple packages in Zhengzhou are held in bulk shipment group waiting to clear China customs. So they wait for a certain number to clear customs before being released to ship. He said that for those orig. scheduled delivery 9/20, it's likely going to be late delivery maybe Thursday 9/22. hopefully this UPS rep is wrong and their system isn't updated
This is what I have. Still showing delivery for 9/20. Called UPS around 8:30am this morning and they told me it's definitely getting here tomorrow for me. Who knows...

**** hope, start drinking...
I am about ready to go to The factory in China to get my phone!
Not sure why the title says 'date change' as they don't update the shipping window even when it ships.
128GB 7+ JB
10/4-10/10 shipping windows
PFS since Saturday

PFS for 96 hours. Card was charged for tax, but the charge later fell off. 7+ 128GB Verizon. About to call apple and ask why people who ordered after me are getting phones first :C
I wrote an email to tcook@apple.com. I figure I have nothing to lose:
Mr. Cook,
I ordered an IPhone 7+ AT&T 256gb Jet Black at 1:15am mountain time on 9/9 I got a delivery date of 10/18-10/31. I am seeing people with this exact configuration who order 60 seconds before me receiving their phones, yet nothing is happening with my order. Please look into this.
Thank you,

No change for me, Apple preorder for T-Mobile 256 7+ Jetblack...still in processing with Oct 4 - 10 shipping..
That's not good.. My order (256/Verizon/IUP) also changed to PFS on Saturday morning, and I also have a pending charge for tax. I'm part of the 10/18-10/31 group.. It doesn't look like it's coming any time soon then..
Everyone who's iPhone is still in ZhengZhou with a delivery date of 9/20 needs to relax. This happens every year. I guarantee that in a few hours all of our tracking will update and our phones will be much closer than they appear right now. We will all get our phones tomorrow no problem. Again, I've been doing this since 2010 and this happens all the time.
My guess/hope is that these are either landing in AK in the batch of flights that is coming now or they are already in KY. I still have a 9/20 delivery date.
