UPDATE !

Well, I guess it was good I did not recheck last night. Slept better. NOW: Phone still in pending at bank. But, I did clear China, ready for UPS at 11:57 pm, 11-9, and I just set up sms UPS updates on phone. I can put the J D away, it won t be here today! Good luck everyone. Looks like we all could write an individual chapter for this Apple X saga.

Exactly the same situation for me. Hopefully our phones get to continental US soon!

And looking at the UPS flights, we may be on UPS59, scheduled arrival in Anchorage at 1:23 AKST. There was a slightly earlier flight, UPS63, but it left at 9:06 so not sure our phones departure scan would have worked for that plane... Regardless, we may see an arrival scan in Anchorage later today.... (he says hopefully)
 
I ordered 2 phones(one 64gb and one 256gb). The 64gb shipped Monday and the 256gb Wednesday. The 64gb shipped Monday and UPS had a 11/10/2017 Delivery date. The 256gb was to be delivered next week on Tuesday. They both now have a Tuesday delivery date.
 
My iPhone is still stuck in South Korea :(

Mine never moved off OIP with delivery by Nov 17-24; this morning 7:30 am Central saw once again available for pick up at all but one Apple Store in Dallas Fort Worth today, so I canceled my preorder, took less than 2 minutes for the cancelation to take effect, and ordered VRZN 256 GB in silver. All went thru, got the 5:30pm pick up slot today confirmed by email at 9:30 am.

Details of my preorder: Mine was a paid in full preorder in the Apple Store app, it was about 2:08 am central before Store came up and 20 minutes before VRZN confirmation process completed and my preorder finished at 2:28 am with delivery by Nov 17-24, and the status never moved between now and then. Not sure if I’ll ever preorder again, because the point was to get a X preferably on launch day or very soon thereafter.

Will be a happy camper tonight after work. See y’all when the next latest greatest iPhone drops.
 
Usually when a package is awaiting customs clearance, you wont see scheduled delivery date until it clears. Hopefully this will move quickly as my tracking is identical to this right now

My lady friend's iPhone has the same tracking info as you two. It shows stuck in China for two days now, since they're ahead a day. Has the same customs clearance message
 
how do you know it is on this flight ? Mine departure scan is the same as yours.

It's the only cargo flight I saw departing Incheon at that time. If it was that flight we should see it arrive in Shanghai soon and then hopefully be on the way to Anchorage a few hours from now on UPS85

so the time of scan is exactly the same as flight time ? ( I am new to that)

So I just saw this lastest update:

"11/09/2017 12:53 P.M. The package is awaiting clearing agency review. / Your package was released by the clearing agency."

And the estimated delivery is now:

"Scheduled Delivery:

Scheduled delivery information is not available at this time. Please check back later."

Does this mean the shipment is now in the US and we're getting a new delivery date?

I have been watching those who have posted their entire UPS shipping log. What seems to be happening is that the arrival scan in Incheon is the last update for almost 3 days. When it finally does update they are seeing that their phone is already in KY. This either means that the departure scan in Incheon does not create a new log on the UPS system, OR that it really isn't being scanned until it reaches KY and then that scan creates a retroactive timeline. Yeah I REALLY need my phone to get here so I can stop obsessing about this. I feel all "Beautiful Mind" about this entire process.
