For those who have a last check-in of "Departed Anchorage, AK at 12:58AM",
the packages have to be in Louisville. The flight landed in Alaska at 3:06 PM and were moved to another plane, that plane left at 3:22PM local time(Alaska), and arrived at 12:07AM local time(Kentucky or 1:07 EDT).
So the packages are sitting in Louisville's WorldPort right now, not Alaska.
They just missed the departure scan out of Alaska, so they must have accounted for it at WorldPort, hence why the packages were checked in as leaving Alaska 51 minutes after they Arrived in Louisville.

Not to worry I think almost everyone in this thread is in the same boat. I am pretty sure our phones where on flight 2997 that arrived in louisville this morning. Just not sure why we have not seen the arrival scan. I guess somebody screwed up.
That makes total sense. It would only take them 18 minutes for the plane to arrive, go through customs, unload the plane, reload another plane, and take off... Right.
Customs could be happening at WorldPort...and yes, it's entirely possible.That makes total sense. It would only take them 18 minutes for the plane to arrive, go through customs, unload the plane, reload another plane, and take off... Right.
They unload entire jetliners at WorldPort in mere minutes.
Never said that's what happened for sure, but it's possible.
Also, there is an arrival scan at Louisville at 12:07AM, and that flight I spoke up left Anchorage and Arrived at Louisville at 12:06AM.......hmmmm
9/19
Well here is the link that shows all the planes that have left and I don't see any UPS or Fed ex planes that have left since 4:18am. You can keep checking though. I bet you will be on the first UPS plane that goes out. Look for the planes with UPS in the flight #.

Customs 100 percent happen in Anchorage, per public knowledge and a UPS supervisor.
And since we're in the same boat, Im sure you saw our phone left AK at 12:58 AM... I think the Louisville scan was a "destination" scan, if you will.
Could be, just weird. I've never had an arrival scan, before a departure scan on UPS before...things are bound to get weird with the amount of shipments going on thought lol
Louisville is the main hub so they will probably not be leaving there until some time tomorrow or perhaps even Thursday. They have until Friday so now that hey are in the US there is really no rush. They can get the phone any where from there in 5 hours or less.
I know. It has been chilling there for 24 hours. Well, as long as I get it on the 21st, I'll be happy. I'd be happier if I was the lucky few the mistakenly get it a day early.
I'd suspect we begin to see the Louisville packages flown to the sort facilities overnight Wednesday night and sent to the final delivery hub early Friday by truck, and then out for delivery 6am Friday
+1 This sounds about right to me too
Cant Wait!!!

Count me in as one who has a 12:58am Alaska departure time on 9/18 and no updates since... Is that the case for everyone on the flight and all the Louisvillle arrival talk is just assumptions?? Or do some of you actually have a true arrival scan on your tracking (out of those of us who flew out of HK together)?
Hi
I am in Sherman oaks. How did u find out its in the air. My phone was in Louisville
did you get a departed scan. I have not had a scan since I left Alaska at 12:58 on the 18th.

I haven't either, the scheduled delivery of the 21st before 10:30am hasn't changed though so I'm not too concerned.
UPS tracking can at times be nearly as unreliable as USPS tracking. I have had items stop tracking mid way through and then magically appear as delivered after I get the item or out for delivery the day of.
Considering there seems to be a fair share of us that has their last scan as departing Alaska I'd say its likely a scanning error and nothing to worry about.
You should get an arrival scan to Hong Kong soon. When you get your departure scan from Hong Kong. Then go to flightaware.com and put airport code VHHH into airport tracker/info on the left side. look for a ups flight that left about the same time as your departure scan and thats your plane.
