Ahh cmon. You know you want to click this http://flightaware.com/live/iphone Just a little tick of the mouse...what could it hurt..
Haha no. Not while the scans look like a bad game of pong. Plus, I just can't do that. It's not as important to me I guess. I'm weirdly patient with some things and very impatient about others, this isn't something I'm impatient about. Yet.
View attachment 499283 Anybody can tell me what's going on with my package?
This looks like just mine by an email from ups says differently. I think what I'm finding amusing are the scans. This is unlike any iPhone delivery or even ipad delivery I've seen.
Like a few people, I just got an email from ups that says my package will arrive on Thursday. The website still says my delivery date 10/6 Monday. The site also says my package left ZhenZhou almost 24 hours ago. It has not been scanned since. I am super confused and conflicted. Shipping gods, please stop toying with me.

Same here.
 
Did anyone order a 6 Plus on 9/16? Mine is still processing. (SG 128GB AT&T)

I ordered 2 6+ on 9/19 (SG 64 and G 64 AT&T) and haven't seen any change in status yet either! I was given a estimated delivery of 10/20-10-27! I'm hoping to get the status change to preparing to ship in the next week!

My phone has "departed" from the Zoo three times now, been to Korea and back. My scheduled delivery date has gone from Oct 2nd to 3rd to 6th. Today it's gone from the 6th to the 3rd and now all the way back to the 2nd. This is awesome-- absolutely hilarious. The Steve Jobs "Reality Distortion Field" is in effect. Remember the old UPS ad? "We run the tightest ship in the shipping business." Ha, ha, ha, ha!!!! I think it's safe to say, don't trust the UPS tracker. I think they're trying to ship from the island from the show "Lost"-- the phones keep boomeranging back!
 
Well, mine "supposedly" left China with a 5:15pm departure scan yesterday. It never made that flight to Incheon, Korea and now it "departed" again with a 4:25pm departure scan. Who knows where it is going, Hong Kong? Shenzhen? I gave up. Preordered on 9/12 and was already beyond frustrated/disappointed to see those order after me have received them already. Heck someone at my work already had the 6+ in gold and she isnt even a fan of Apple products.
 
My 6+ has departed ZhengZhou, China for the second time without even arriving anywhere the first time it departed. Way to go UPS.

My 6+ must be in the same batch as yours. I'm seeing the same thing. Currently, I don't think UPS could track a fat dude at an all you can eat buffet.
 
My order is still at "Preparing for shipment" been like that the last 28 hours or so... :apple:i6+ 64GB Space grey T-Mobile
By the way... ordered on September 12th...
Think it'll be long till my phone will be shipped?:D

Currently my phone is in Chek Lap Kok, HK. Haven't heard of that yet. I thought after leaving Incheon (which took forever) it would be on its way to Anchorage? My delivery date has slipped again, 10/1 to 10/6. But it's showing up under My Choice as being delivered on 10/2. Yeah pretty sure that's not accurate. Does anyone else have or know what's going on with the Chek Lap Kok, HK detour?
 
I ordered two 6+ 128GB Space Greys from the Apple Store...one on the 20th, the other on the 21st.

Both shipped on the 27th, arrived in Anchorage at 1:33pm 9/30/2014 and neither have departed. Delivery estimate says Thursday...should I start to worry?

How long do they normally sit in AK before heading to KY?

Same stats here...same question...
 
Not saying yours won't stay on the same flight, but mine didn't. The plane continued on to Louisville and my phone stayed in Anchorage.

So did mine!!!

I'm sure there's a method to their madness, but I just wish we knew what it is!

My delivery date still says 10/02, so I'm hoping my 6+ 128GB Gold hops on a plane coming to the lower 48 early today. :)

Well... Mine has another departure scan out of ZZ... no arrival scans, and I just saw that UPS my choice emailed me at 1am this morning saying we will have two packages delivered tomorrow. I find this hard to believe considering our phones still have to go through Incheon, Anchorage, and Louisville before heading to my hub.

I've seen stuff move extraordinarily quickly before with UPS, but arriving at my door tomorrow seems like an extreme long shot at this point.

My phone was in Chek Lap Kok also BUT just got a departure scan. No clue where they are going... Delivery date slipped to 10/6 also. So confusing.
 
From the UPS tracking it shows one 6+ in Louisville and the other never departed Anchorage (tracker wise) But I did get a UPS notice for delivery tomorrow for both items so, I really think the tracker gets updated sometimes and other times not so much...
 
Here's my latest BS. Two departure scans from ZZ, or should I say ZZZZZZZZZ, with no arrival scans.

Stuck in Alaska with a Delivery Date of 10/2 in NY

My iPhone 6 Plus 128GB Space Gray (Verizon) that I ordered at 9:30 AM in NY through the Apple Store App is in Anchorage, Alaska since 9/29 at 1:25 PM. I received a UPS MyChoice email at midnight last night saying that my delivery was on schedule for 10/2. Not likely but could be that the UPS tracking site is getting overloaded by all the Apple users.

Same boat here...
 
UPS had 6 flights last night from Anchorage to Lousiville.

Yep, my second 6+ that came into Anchorage yesterday sat for 2 hours and was on the first flight out to Louisville, while the first one that got there on the 29th still hasn't shown a departure scan. But I did get the UPS my choice delivery notification for tomorrow for both of them....So eyes, fingers and toes crossed on the delivery!!
 
Louisville, KY, United States 10/01/2014 1:07 A.M. Arrival Scan


and says it will arrive today. Not happening:mad:
 
Shout out to those still stuck in Anchorage. Mine arrived there 9/29 at 125p local time and hasn't moved since. Delivery still scheduled for tomorrow 10/2, I'm located in Central California. Well if anything is gonna happen, delay or movement progress, it should happen today. We'll see.

iPhone 6 Plus/16gb/silver ordered Sept 13.
