I'm leaving town tomorrow. Now I wont get it until next week. Oh well; another couple days wont hurt anything.
Yeah, I didn't get the weather excuse, I got the mechanical delay excuse. I'm beginning to think my phone won't be here today. (LOL)

Everyone is telling different stories now. I call it BS. I have shipped stuff overseas before and if its being held at custom, it would usually say so on the tracking page. I mean when I sent my cousin a pair of UGG boots for his wife's bday, UPS even went as far as teling him to go to the port to pay tax and pick up the next day or some bs like that.
Per Reddit: packages in Korea are being upgraded to next day delivery.
"Just spoke to a UPS shipping logistics supervisor who explained to me that all iPhone packages (with a Korean arrival date of 9/20 or 9/21) currently held up in Korea will be out of Korea tonight and in the US by tomorrow morning.
I then spoke to a management rep at the Apple Online Store who stated that all packages currently in Asia have been upgraded to next-day delivery. He assured me that I would have my phone either tomorrow or Saturday at the latest."

So I should leave my woeful UPS signature release taped to the front door in hopes that a Unicorn will deliver my phone?
LOL
LOL
That sounds amazing! I hope it includes 9/22 also.
Just don't shoot the messenger.
But how realistic will it be though, It still has to flight to Anchorage -> Louisville -> your local hub first.
Assume it leaves Incheon at midnight, it wont arrive Anchorage until 6AM, which means it wont arrive Louisville until noon, and depending on where you are, your local hub wont have it until afternoon. Thats if your phone hops on another flight to the next destination right after it landed. I highly doubt it. Though I have a bit more faith in Apple than UPS, I do hope to get them by Sat of not Fri

Do you have the link to the article?
The hopes of dozens, if not hundreds of MacRumors users, foaming at the mouths for their JB ip7+, rides upon your shoulders!!!!
I imagine tomorrow isn't feasible, unless they take a different route than they have been. Saturday delivery makes sense if being upgraded to next day allows for Saturday delivery. No clue.
Let us know how that goes, if it works out I'll be doing that first thing when I get home.
Still talking with them. Been transferred three different times.
Maybe good news for us who ordered the iPhone 7+ jet black. Read the article that was posted today.https://www.google.com/amp/www.ibti...ack-order-arrive-late-september-2420521?amp=1
