Mine has been sitting in Incheon, Korea for over 28 hours. Is it possible that UPS missed a departure scan??

Mine, too... UPS shows arrival scan at 7:52PM in Incheon on the 7th, with two different flights (UPS99 is the number) departing Korea since then, but no other scans. I am 'assuming' that the departure scan was missed (he says hopefully), as they still show a delivery date of Friday the 10th....

UPS99 is the only flight heading to PANC tho. If our tracking doesn’t update in a couple of hours, my guess is we get bumped till Monday.

If it they did make it onto UPS99, we should see an arrival scan in 5-6 hours, hopefully

My iPhone is currently in South Korea, i was hoping for my phone to be delivered on Friday, but I guess I’ll have to wait until Monday! When should I contact UPS to have my package held at a UPS center? Should I do that now? And should I ask to have it held at a UPS center or an UPS store near me? I don’t want it to get delayed! Thanks
I changed my delivery to hold for pick up at the CC. It’s already showing on my tracking page that I’m picking up there. I’d change it now since the delivery date is 11/10 and there might a delay in scanning.
 
Apple.com 256 silver att. Shipment notification this morning showing the phone in china preparing to ship. Still says 11/17-11/24
 
I am still in The package is awaiting clearing agency review. / The package is at the clearing agency awaiting final release. I would like to just get my delivery date just so I know when to expect it.

I already called and changed it :) my delivery date was Nov 13! I really hope it comes this Friday tho :’(
 
My experience says that Apple sticks with conservative date while UPS will update based on their logistic info. Sometimes that becomes an exception when there’s a delay in clearance or from disaster like weather or war.
[doublepost=1510161687][/doublepost]My theory (no facts) is that Apple assigns a phone to a customer sometime during the make progress - maybe when boxing or doing quality assurance or ?. But a phone at launch could be assigned from a stockpile therefore the charge notice might be shorter between charge and ship. UPS would only show it when Apple tells UPS they have a package ready to ship.
 
Those of you with 11/10 delivery dates, but no departure scan out of Incheon yet: there is a very good chance you're on UPS99 right now which lands in Anchorage in 4 hours. Highly doubt that ship took off with no iPhones. You just won't see any updates until it is scanned in Anchorage. Updates can be very few and far between while they are still on palettes.
 
I had an original ship date of 11/22 ... my card was charged on Monday night and received my tracking number yesterday. Ship date is now 11/9

Hang in there. My second order that was placed 3 minutes later hasn't budged yet. It will happen. And soon.

You need to put in your zip code to help narrow it down

Apple charged my card a couple days ago, but I still have no movement on anything and the same old dates. Figured if they charged my card, it would move. Nope.

(Paid in full, apple website, AT&T, silver 256, W45

My order that shipped last night had a pending charge for tax only 5 days prior to going PTS and then shipping the following day. At that point they also charged the first month payment for IUP.
[doublepost=1510163614][/doublepost]I tried to cancel my second IUP order for ATT Silver 256 that was completed 10 minutes after pre-order open but the site doesn't let me. I tried to do it fast as there was stock at the local stores this morning for the same config. There was also stock multiple days this past weekend.

Don't want to risk a cancellation error and not being able to reserve in store pickup fast enough.
 
Apple just called me from Austin, TX again...I just let it go to voicemail and I was right to because all she said in the voicemail is "we have no update on your order, it is still set for 11/17-11/24 delivery." She also said she can help me look at an Apple retail store near me...well, I have been doing that every day, however, the problem is the two closest stores to me are an hour and a half for one, and about 2 hours for the other. I have checked istocknow for the past week and those stores have not had any stock for any model for the past week since they are small Apple retail stores, in fact the 12 closest Apple stores have ZERO stock. Blah, blah, blah! This is really utter insanity! Next year I am ordering through my carrier, two years in a row not getting my iPhone on launch day ordering through Apple. Looking more and more like I will not be getting mine until beyond the 17th. I know a lot can happen in a week, let alone a couple days but at this rate, doubtful.

Rant for the day complete!
