So the more I'm thinking about this, one of 3 scenarios is playing out for the 2am crew:
1)The flight from Alaska to Louisville never happend for most of us and the watches are sitting on a plane to take off.
OR
2)They did arrive in Louisville and just haven't cleared customs yet.
OR
3)We will see the scans all bunch up and everything will arrive in our respective cities for tomorrow's delivery.

It may end up being a bit of some of all of those for us. Look at it this way, it's not been as bad as the PS5 and Xbox Series X preorders! :D
 
Still in “Processing,” waiting for the ”Preparing to ship” notification. It’s supposed to arrive between Sept 25 and Sept 30. So I suppose it could arrive this Friday.
Not holding my breath.

Well, not too much.

Ooooh South Korea! Looks like UPS89 to Anchorage will be our flight!
 
My Gold SS 44M with a cyprus green sport band had an original delivery date of 9/30 - 10/7 until a little bit ago and is now saying 9/24-9/25 but still in processing.
 
Looks like I didn't make it out of China with the rest of the crew. Very confused about what it's doing in Shanghai for going on 3 days.

I had an October 5-8 delivery window with it still showing processing. I cancelled it today because it is at just about every Apple store in Phoenix. That’s a 3 hour drive for me but I’m tired of waiting 😊

UPS89 Incheon to Anchorage is supposed to leave within the next half hour, so we’ll know soon if the 6:00 am departure from Shanghai crew is on it!

PS: UPS89 has now departed on time. No departure update yet — but UPS updates might be delayed for awhile. Hope is still alive that we’re on flight 89!

I am in the 2am crew and my watch cleared customs and there is no Louisville scan yet (see screenshot below). So, point #2 is wrong:

Ordered immediately after the store came back up. Estimated delivery date of 29 September.

The thing has been sitting still in China for three days and counting.

Once it finally arrives in-country, it’ll probably take at least that long again for it to get from Auckland to Wellington.

Oh, the joys of buying Apple products in New Zealand.
