Apple.com preorder thread - iPhone 6/6 Plus

Maybe this well help... I placed my order on 9/24, it went to "preparing for shipment" on 9/25, it shipped 9/26 and I just received it today, 10/2. I feel like it made a lot of unnecessary stops around Asia :), but overall not bad. My estimate from Apple was 10/13-10/16.

That helps so much! Thank you :);)
 
This is hopeful...

I guess it just took a while for the scan to get through:

Anchorage, AK, United States 10/02/2014 4:46 P.M. Departure Scan

So maybe it will be here tomorrow...hope...hope...hope...
 
This Has Got to Be the Flight!

I'm thinking that it's got to be on this flight, since this is the closest time since it's departure from Anchorage... I'm hoping...

Ordered iPhone 6 Plus 64 GB Space Grey from Apple Store on 9/12.

Shipped 9/29

Departed Shanghai 10/2 9:30 AM

Arrived in Anchorage, AK 10/2 1:20 PM.

Didn't make the UPS flight 81 to Louisville, KY that departed 04:28PM AKDT 10/2

Guess it will not arrive 10/3 as per UPS notification.

Same boat. No rhyme or reason...some of them were transferred right to the new flight, others were held back. This is getting really irritating. Never been a fan of UPS and this doesn't really help.

Check again.. Took about an hour after the flight departed to show the departure in UPS tracking... I think we're all on flight 81 since it doesn't make a lot of sense to take them off the same plane that came from Shanghai...

The site was updated about 20 minutes later though (around 7:10 EDT).

UPS109 left Anchorage at 2:49PM. UPS63 leaves at 3:22PM. Keep in there!

Finally received my ATT iPhone 6+ silver 128gb today
Just a little history if it helps:
Ordered from Apple.com on Sept 12 and finally got notification of it being processed and ready for shipping on Sept 26. Had delivery dates ranging from Oct 1-8th and back again and was stuck in ZZ and Korea for 5 days. Once it left Korea, took a day to get to me here in the US
History is below
Good Luck all. I'll be back in a month for my wife's order

It is done...

Ordered a 6+, white, AT&T 128 GB on September 12 at 5:30 am PST. It was delivered in Portland oregon on October 2nd. It went into preparing for shipment on the 27th of September, sat for a day, flew into Louisville and sat for three days and then in one day made it to Portland and was delivered.

Thanks for all the great info everyone.
 
Well I was encouraged before reading your post. :(

I honestly am not sure.

I have never tracked anything like this that ships via air. Normally packages for our house go through Hodgekins IL, then take a truck to Bloomington, IL, and are out from delivery form there.

It will be interesting to see how the routing happens since it sounds like the package will go from Louisville to Rockford. Surely the package will still route through the Bloomington location? I think the package can get to Rockford in enough time, but I do not believe that it will make it to Bloomington in enough time to go out for delivery tomorrow morning.

I hope UPS proves me wrong though. :cool:

There are some severe storms blowing through the area. I hope it doesn't affect the delivery to Louisville... :eek:

Look at the flight tracks. Flight plan has them flying into the continental US and then are flying east to get around the storms. lol
 
picture attached of the flight path. I can only assume it is to avoid the storms.
