Apple has a distribution centre in Elk Grove, Cali. According to the receipt I posted earlier mine left from there yesterday. Where it's heading, I have no idea. My guess is that early production units were already in the U.S. as stated by an earlier poster. The people with later build dates are receiving tracking info because their phones are being shipped directly from the factory.

I have also tried to use my reference number from that receipt to track the progress but nothing shows up yet.

Oh well...........I'm sure it will arrive Friday.

Sounds like good news. Thanks for the information.

My phone has finally arrived in North America. Scheduled out of Anchorage to Louisville in about 1 hour and then from there to Hamilton, Ontario at 4:30AM, arriving just before 6:00AM on the 24th. Out for delivery the next day to me! I have been running an HTC Windows Phone since I sold my iPhone 6 Plus and am going crazy. Need my 6s Plus! haha
 
I am week 36. So does this mean my iPhone 6S should arrive on Friday? Or is that week too late?

Doesn't matter what week it was made, if Apple say it'll be delivered on the 25th it'll be delivered then. Check the UPS site, put in your phone number under 'track by reference' see if it comes up.
 
My pre-order's AppleCare Welcome Kit was sent about a half hour ago.

Also:
Production week : -37- (September)
Production year : -2015-
Factory: DN (China, Chengdu - Foxconn)

September 25-29th by Standard Shipping.

My shipment date says "Delivers Sept 25th-29th"..... so does that mean it might not be here this Friday? Does everyone else's shipping date say "Delivers Sept 25th by end of day"?

No Canada has a few different shipping zones. If you live near any of the major Canadian cities you should get it Friday.

If you go on the website they have a spot you can put your postal code in that will tell you where between 25-29 you should expect it.

Your previous question about week 36 what that likely means is that your phones already in North America and will ship tomorrow.

Check under Delivery Date Information, click the link and enter your postal code. It all depends on what zone you are in.

THANKS SO MUCH GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Ordered through Bell.... Preorder date of Sept 19.. Shows that I am in the order queue.... Fingers crossed for Friday. Anyone have any prior experience from last year as to when Bell shipped?

So UPS is chugging along and my phone is sitting in Anchorage...(ironically an 11hr drive away) and will soon ship into either Ontario, CA(California, not Canada) or Louisville. I'm guessing it will go to Ontario as there are 2 flights this afternoon from Anchorage to Ontario. Then on to YVR and hopefully to YXY on one either Air Canada or Air North for Friday delivery.

Apple still estimates September 30th for my shipping zone but UPS is saying the 25th by end of day....should I believe in UPS?? I sure hope so..but expectations are set low for a Monday delivery....
 
If any of you is waiting for a tracking number from TELUS, they send it on the day your package is (going to be) out for delivery.

My local Bell store in Whitehorse said they have a bunch coming in on Friday and not all are spoken for so hopefully Bell has decent stock country wide.
 
I can finally track with my phone number but MyUPS hasn't alerted me.

Anyone have experience delivering to a UPS store? Would that delay it in any way?

It's also shipping from Burlington, Ontario.

Mine is the exact same as yours coming from Burlington. I have never changed a delivery location, I'd be scared to delay it in any way.

I was going to change from delivery from my home on Friday to "hold for pick up" at a UPS store in my town. It let me go through the process and before you submit your request it asks you to confirm and it did indeed delay delivery until Monday. I wouldn't be able to get it until Monday so I left it as is. Good thing I can work from home.
 
I was also finally able to see my tracking via UPS reference! Am hoping that the delivery time will be late afternoon. Anyone know if it will be available for pickup on Friday night or Saturday if I miss it?

After the long wait, mine is also now appearing in UPS! Shipped with Express Saver from Burlington, ON.

From past UPS experience, changing my delivery usually delayed it by a day because they need to "process" it (slap a new label on the box, I presume). I'd call them and ask to be sure, it might be quicker seeing as it just shipped.
 
My postal code gives me a september 25th delivery date but my phone is still stuck on preparing for shipment... I cant see that i've been charged either. But, the phone's in my support profile with serial number and all..

Whats up with that? Anyone else still in preparing for shipment?

My Apple Status is PFS, but my phone is on its way to Louisville, Kentucky right now. This is normal. Apple is slow to update, but you can track your phone on the UPS website.
