A mechanical failure has delayed delivery. We're adjusting plans to deliver your package as quickly as possible. / Your package was released by the clearing agency.
Incheon, KR

Same! I've been lurking in this thread since I got the mechanical failure. I guess I'm part of the 9/22 7:43 KR group. Honestly, I just need to know when to put my pre-signed delivery paper on my door. Dassit!

I've been waffling between getting a 7+ in another color from the nearest Apple Store just to hold me over ... trying to resist! :(o_O

Now it's going to get interesting....

For those of us that just got "clearance" but are stilling sitting in Incheon, there's a decent chance we'll end up in the states by the end of the day today.

This mean we should be getting our phones on Monday... But what about those of us that paid for the expedited shipping?

My apple status page says I have next day air....so I wonder if this means I'll get it on Saturday instead of Monday? I highly highly doubt it....but it's a decent test to see if the shipping change and $4 made a difference...

I didn't even know you could pay for expedited.

Mine was upgraded to next day free of charge. When I check on the Apple Store it says 2-3 days again lol.

Here's a little trick. When you're dictating with Siri, you can say the word period, and she will dictate actual periods.
 
It looks like there are now FOUR flights leaving Seoul for Anchorage. One airborne. One leaving in a few minutes and two leaving in 2 hours.

What flight do you think we would be leaving on? One heading to anchorage or to Hong Kong like the group before us?

My status finally changed to "out for delivery." What a chaotic ride this has been. So much so, that I wouldn't be surprised if the local truck breaks down and it gets delayed again. But assuming it is finally on it's way, I paid $3 for the confirmed 2hour delivery window that will begin in 6 hours. Never used that option before, but in an attempt to gain some control over this experience, I decided to give it a try. Good luck to everyone still trying to cross the pacific. I almost wish tracking data wasn't available until the package is state side. Just tell us then that it's been shipped, for that might be easier to endure. Regardless, as someone who upgrades every year, I do think the Jet Black Plus was a wise choice for this year's iPhone and well worth waiting for.
