And it looks like there's thunderstorms around Louisville. 😱 Crap

Mine was delayed a day due to thunderstorms around Louisville. The flight leaving there to my hometown was delayed an hour causing my delivery to be pushed back a day. 🙁

[Dave Felix]

For everyone on the UPS99 flight from Korea. It looks like the same plane leaves for Louisville 3 hours later. Hopefully our phones can make that flight then we'll be sitting pretty

how did you know this?

Yeah, that's the one I've been following. We'll see once it touches down in 24 minutes!!

My order for iPhone 6 64gb SG just went to preparing for shipment. I have seen some that order the 6+ say this step took awhile. Does anybody now the average time before it actually ships for the regular 6? Good luck all

I ordered two iPhone 6's 64gb on October 1st. One of them shipped on Oct. 3rd and the second shipped on Oct. 4th. Both phones have a delivery date of October 9th. One iPhone is silver and the other gold. Hope that helps 🙂

My phone is finally on American soil!!! Hot Damn!!!! Now hopefully on to Louisville soon.

 

[LaQuillera14]

The Eagle has landed

Landed and our statuses has been updated!! WOOHOO!!!! Arrival scan CHECK!

----------

AND there's a flight to Louisville leaving at 6:06 central time zone. Let's hope we go straight on that flight too. Most likely if we all have the Oct. 9th delivery date. SO EXCITED!!! I can't wait to have the phone in my hands, lol.

 

[Srobinson9305]

Finally in the good ol' USA! Now just gotta hope we all make the connection to SDF!

 

[Dave Felix]

Yep, mine is also on American soil! Its 521PM here, that means I should still be on track for Will Call Friday 10/10.

When did you order?

 

[Dave Felix]

Now how do we know when it leaves Alaska? How do we find the flight number?

 

[Jwo128]

When did you order?

Originally ordered through Verizon on 09/25. Cancelled because their shipping times are terrible. Oredered through Apple on 10/05

Keep an eye out for when you get a departure scan and then go to http://www.flightaware.com and search PANC-KSDF for the route and look at which departure time matches yours the closest.

[MannyBothans]

Ordered 64gb TMO 6+ on the evening of 9/12, and it's been "preparing for shipment" for over a week now (since 9/30). Anyone else in the same place? delivery dates have remained unchanged at 10/13-10/20 since I originally ordered.

Hi Nickoli23

From the information you uploaded about your order, time and date of execution, it is identical to my order also. Thanks for the flight info. I can now follow the action. My package is expected Thurs, Oct. 9. I originally place this order with Apple Online on the morning of Sept 12 at 4:30AM. Finally, I can see light at the end of the tunnel. Have fun with you iPhone 6 Plus.🙂🙂🙂

Sorry to inform you ChrisG1.
All UPS flights go to Louisville, KY first.

Thank you for the info!

 

[Bwal831]

Now how do we know when it leaves Alaska? How do we find the flight number?

There are 3 flights from anchorage to Louisville tonight. A 3:06, a 3:14 and a 3:38pm. All anchorage time ( 3 hours behind central time zone). Give ups about 45 mins- hour to get the tracking up to date. Then we will all know if we made it out

Yep. I ordered something like Sep 13th at 7 pm. But mine went from Korea to Alaska today, hoping to make the connection to Louisville in an hour or so. Supposed to be at my door on 10/9. Lets hope our phones make it there quick. Good luck

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. 🙁

Just a note, but it seems pretty consistent that if your phone makes it to Alaska by 3:16PM one day then it will be likely be delivered by the next day.

Really?!?!?! That would be pretty awesome if that were the case. Where did you hear that? My phone, along with others in my same traveling group, got our arrival scan at Anchorage @ 12:39pm. Waay before the 3:16pm time. (crossing my fingers lol)

I would be a counter-example of this, where my phone made it to AK 12:39 PM on Monday and won't be delivered to the southwest until tomorrow (Wednesday).
