Apple.com preorder thread - iPhone 6/6 Plus

[Morkat]

How do you get the delivery window? I got a free 6 month trial of UPS choice and can not figure out how to get the delivery window. Everyone I log on and go to the choice window it says I have no upcoming deliveries. How do you link the accounts?
Good luck I hope your phone does come today.

I shows on the tracking screen after I log in

Anyone else have this?

Hey, nikocb: I have exactly the same route as you! I've posted it about ten posts above... Do you know something about it?

 

[TheBDP]

The UPS flight left Incheon for Anchorage at 10:14 pm local Korean time, which is 9:14 am east coast time. I don't see a departure scan for my iPhone. How long would it take before I would saw one assuming it's on that plane?

I would think UPS would scan it before it left, and upon the flight taking off, it would update. however there seem to be delays on all scans. So I think we're at the mercy of the UPS gods.

 

[amontoyac]

I had the same scans but just a day earlier. My phone is being delivered today, a day after the 10/1 Chek Lap Kok scans.

¡Thank you Heather! That's pretty good news for all of us in this boat... So far I've seen four of us tracking this same shipment:

amontoyac
eMagine
nikocb
JJJensen

Let's hope you're right... (Crossing fingers)

[Robo13]

Delivery today!

My 6+ will be delivered TODAY on the UPS delivery date. It's at the local UPS hub as I write this and, barring a cataclysm, should be out for delivery in a couple hours.

PS - Amazon is offering a tremendous trade-in ($400 for like new 5S 64 GB Vz) whether you buy your iPhone 6 from them or not. And you have 45 days to send an iPhone to them from the time you sign up!

Maybe this will help someone weather the wait. Here's the sequence my 6+ 128 GB Vz traveled...

UPS delivery date: 10/2 - today - by end of day

Order date: 9/12 @ 3:30 am
Initial delivery dates: 10/13-20
Apple delivery date on shipping confirmation: 10/6/14
Days "Processing": about 4
Days "Prep for shipping": 10
Status as "Shipping" from ZhengZhou: 4 days
Days from ZZ to Shanghai to Anchorage to Louisville: 24 hours
Days in Louisville without movement: 3
Yesterday (10/1) changed to "import scan"
Late yesterday (10/1): Departure scan
VERY late last night (10/1): Los Angeles, then Sylmar.
This morning (10/2): Santa Maria (local hub)
Expected delivery: around 10 am - noon

We should be on UPS63 to anchorage. My scans are identical to yours too.

 

[28Gauge]

Anybody else's phone stuck in Louisville?

 

[amontoyac]

Hey nikocb: Unfortunately, no. I don't have any info about the flight. All I know is that our tracking info is the same for all four of us (so far), so, I guess that our iPhones are in the same cargo, probably they are facebook friends already, and they have fancy pictures to publish once they get a network... LOL

 

[heathdj]

For those who made it to Korea today I just got an update looks like Mine made the UPS99 flight to Anchorage. I'll wait to see if it makes it out of Anchorage later today.

 

[nikocb]

If they're on UPS63 then they're not scheduled to lnad for another 6 hours.. What happens after that?

 

[srijans]

Stuck in KY

Anybody else's phone stuck in Louisville?

Mine is Supposed to be delivered today.

AND now we have another one in the party... So far we have: amontoyac, eMagine, nikocb, JJJensen, musham. Any chances to get them tomorrow? Cross fingers, pals!

Confirmed, mine says the same. Wow first time for a UPS update that wasn't over night!

Mine was also stuck in Shanghai since 9/29 but I just had some movement. My phones just got their departure scan and they are heading to Korea or Alaska I guess. Still don't have an updated delivery date. It was originally 10/3 but I'm guessing that isn't going to happen

Tracking just updated..it finally left Shanghai China..i hoping it skips Korea and goes straight to Alaska..A guy I work with yesterday his phone departed from Shanghai it skipped Korea..went straight to Alaska..left Alaska around 7:00pm EST..and is out for Delivery today in New Jersey.

I have the same info as you. are we hoping for a Friday delivery?

 

[Wereismiphone6]

You guys have zero patience lol. Has anyone's order actually been later than the original date estimated? While the scans may not be updating, just be patient and wait. Mine had ZERO activity until 2 days ago and I just got a text out of nowhere saying that it is out for delivery right now (my estimated ship date from UPS). Just be patient and stop sounding like crazy people.

Sorry but please don't ridicule me like that. I am not like Crazy I am Crazy.

Does anyone know like what happened? I was suppose to get it tomorrow and i'm in the same boat as you.. no delivery date.

 

[erickjovan]

Almost here!

My guess, The update yesterday about the package being in transit was UPS rescanning all of the pallets they had in inventory and resetting their system after getting a ton of calls and possibly a call from Apple. I think once they knew what they had in inventory they then planned a way to get everything moving again and fix all the back and forth some people have been seeing.
