She's so helpless ####

The wait is almost over, my phone just landed in Seattle.
Awesome! Are you getting it tomorrow?
I guess mine got left behind...
I thought I might make that last flight out of Anchorage but still no change to the scan. Clicking on Chat indicates it's supposed to be delivered tomorrow but I ain't holding my breath. Good thing to not do in any case, as oxygen is required for survival. If it wasn't on that flight, then it will be Monday at the earliest. At least it's out of China. Sheesh.

Perhaps, I say perhaps, it's because when they scanned the phones, they did it in bulk and assumed that yours was part of the bulk. But if it's not, you got bogus scans which muddle up the picture. I don't know this for sure, obviously, but it's one viable possibility.
Um, you have no clue what you're talking about. The apple stores set aside quite a significant reserve for this purpose exactly. When I got my second gen iPad, I had an issue and I was able to swap it immediately, even though they were otherwise sold out.

I got the same UPS notification...
Anchorage, AK, United States 10/02/2014 3:59 P.M. Departure Scan
I am so happy
Dose any one know where is the next stop !!?
Next stop, Louisville, KY.
I wouldn't count on it. Your phone will probably arrive around 1:30 am or so edt. But... customs needs to put their scan on it and that won't happen until around 10 - 11 am. After that, it will depart Louisville.
My Phone's Journey
For all those still waiting on their phone. Here's an update on my story in case it helps you in figuring out when you will receive your phone.
I ordered an iPhone 6 Plus 128GB, Space Gray, Verizon Upgrade, through the Apple Store App on 9/19 at 9:30 AM EDST. I was given a shipping estimate of 3-4 weeks, Oct 20-27th.
On 9/27 my phone was picked up by UPS from FOXCONN in China and it began what seemed like it's never-ending trip to NY. While some phones arrived places and left quickly mine seemed to like to stay 2 days everywhere it went. When my phone initially shipped Apple changed my delivery date to 10/6 while UPS soon there after set my delivery date to 10/2. I never received a change in delivery date from UPS as others seemed to have repeatedly received throughout their phone's shipping path. As soon as my phone was scanned for import midday on 10/2 (today) in Louisville I received an update from UPS that I would actually receive my phone on 10/3. Which by that point I fully expected. I changed my delivery instructions through UPS My Choice to pick-up at their local Customer Center (local distribution warehouse) because I didn't want to have to be looking for the driver all day and I didn't trust the pre-signing which puts all responsibility of a lost/stolen phone on me. I should have my phone by 11:00 AM tomorrow which is the earliest this particular location allows customers to pick-up. It is currently scanned in Jamaica, NY which is JFK airport about 1 hour from my pick-up location.

maybe someone with more experience with UPS could help clear this up for me:
I live in Phoenix, Arizona (well, Scottsdale, actually) and my phone will be arriving in Louisville tonight. If my phone is to come tomorrow, are they going to truck it over because I don't see any flights into PHX Sky Harbor from UPS.
