Been lurking here all week and I have to say y'all have been the highlight of my week. I am also on Thursday now, in Los Angeles, and I think I shall adopt you all as you are funny as heck.... as well as super informative.
Ours were taken by way of Hong Kong because of a delivery exception (I believe it was something with customs declaration) that made them miss the direct flight. Yours should go straight from ZZ to Anchorage
My delivery date got updated to 9/26 by the end of day. I’m happy with this now.
AWESOME!! I don't think the Baltimore crew will be leaving until 4:30 am...hopefully, we'll get them tomorrow morning/afternoon
My ups thing says it just departed at 3:19pm from The airport in Kentucky. Does it mean it’s coming already? (LA btw)
Yeah, your phone was just delivered and I stole it. Enjoy waiting for the new one, sucka!!!
I guess we shall see. Mine has been sitting in ZZ for a couple of days. It's possible it's on the CargoLux flight currently en route to Anchorage.
Hello Orlando! Phone is only about 20 miles away now! Just need them to move it to Longwood to our distribution center for delivery tomorrow!
As I am in Fort Myers I assume mine is mixed with yours then will be truck bound south lol
I will be waiting outside my house tomorrow for UPS
Ordered 9/24 through T-Mobile ....256gb Space gray 11 Pro Max and it was delivered today 
....Shocked after what I’m seeing here directly from apple ...

The iPhone will be quite an improvement over his kitchen wall mounted payphone!
(Love that movie)
No - The same thing happened with the previous batch. The delivery exception isn't an event - it seems to just part of this weird large scale deployment. The trip to hong kong isn't a diversion, it's part of the process.
The next batch will follow the same lead, from Hong Kong heading to Anchorage aboard the special Apple charter CPA2084. It isn't regularly scheduled so the next flight won't appear until a flight plan is filed.

Sure you can speculate all the live long day about this flight, that flight - but everything I assumed would happen with CPA2084 and the timing of the scans after reverse engineering the process came true for the 9/27-10/1 group so - by all means fret about a "delay" and the "phones sitting on a tarmac due to an exception" - but I can confidently assure you the plan is, was, and always has been that these will loiter in Hong Kong until the next CPA2084 flight, and then it'll take off, scans will flow like water, and you'll have your phone in 2 days.
MEANWHILE - Mine left Alaska at Midnight (4am my time), Landed in Louisville at 9AM, was scanned at 2PM, Left at 3:30pm and Landed at JFK NY at 5:30 pm.... 😳
I didn't think that timeframe was possible, but apparently UPS has a direct Louisville->NYC Flight with a travel time of under 2 hours.

The point is, you're gonna bite your nails for days as who-knows-what happens with this weird volume shipment in Hong Kong, then it'll be scanned in Anchorage and things will start moving REAL quick. Everything will be fine.
If you want to keep an eye on something, keep an eye on CPA2084. I'll bet you the new phone* I'm getting tomorrow the departure scan from Hong Kong is nearly exactly when that flight next takes off.
*not an actual bet, get real. but I'll eat an entire humble pie if i'm wrong.
