I'm on the same exact boat as you! Lets hope it makes it out of Korea and on its way aboard UPS99!
After being stuck in ZhengZhou for 5 days I’m not sure I have any optimism left. But, it would be a nice unexpected surprise if we made it out of Korea quickly.
 
My phone is still stuck in Shanghai. I don't see any flights out of Shanghai today, so I will probably see movement tomorrow if its supposed to get here on Friday.
 
This is my situation

It flipped this morning to delivery by the end of today! Things moved fast after it finally left Incheon.


did yours go through Shanghai also? Just trying to get an idea of where mine is going to head to, which path once it finally leaves Shanghai.

There is flight UPS77 out of Shanghai into Anchorage in about 25 minutes, might be your flight...
 
Mine has been sitting in ZhengZhou, CN for 4 days and UPS just updated my delivery time from 11/16 to 11/17. Delayed a day now.
 
It's unfortunate that I am seeing some people get there shipments either stalled or pushed back. Let us know on here when yours arrive. I will be constructing a letter to Tim Cook and would like anyone who experienced issues during the pre-order process to 'sign' it to voice our concerns.

Will do. At this point I’m still technically scheduled to get my phone a day before their (Apple’s original delivery window). I guess I shouldn’t complain much, given others’ situations at this point. Now it’s just more frustrating when you see your $1149 just sitting in Kentucky since Sunday morning with nothing happening, especially since you know when it finally does move, it’ll get here that day. Also, the whole debacle of the app and store site not being live till 18 mins after pre order opened, when I was up since 20 mins before (3:01 Eastern) so middle of the night waking up to pre order....then seeing a lot available in store but needing to jump through too many hoops to cancel my paid in full order just to go to a store and pick one up, finally giving in to the wait for it process to take place. The whole scenario has been quite ridiculous, again including seeing that my phone is at its next to last stop, awaiting for departure now 48 hours, in the US and I don’t have it yet. “But hey at least they supposedly will get it here a day earlier than expected?!?!?” I used quotes to indicate my sarcasm and disdain for the situation lol
 
Will change soon to out for delivery,but I saw ups truck around 7pm last night in our neighborhood, so not sure when I will have it today
Scheduled For Early Delivery On:

Tuesday, 11/14/2017 , By End of Day

Originally Scheduled For Delivery On:

Wednesday, 11/15/2017 , By End of Day
 
FINALLY out of China. Such a relief to wake up this morning to see it’s in Korea. Still no estimated arrival date, but let’s see how fast it moves through Korea...

Checked FlightAware, there’s a flight out of Incheon to Anchorage in 2hrs on-board UPS99. Hopefully my phone makes it onto that one and into Anchorage.

I'm with you guys. Finally out of China after 5 days. Here's hoping we all make it onto UPS99.

My delivery date on UPS app is no longer tentative and it's been changed from 11/15 to 11/17. What about you all?

I still do not have a delivery date... my original date when it posted was today, which is clearly not happening...
 
Is there only one flight a day from Incheon to Anchorage? UPS99 departs in 5 minutes. When should I see a Departure Scan from UPS if I'm lucky enough to be on that flight?
 
Still in KY since Sunday morning...apparently it wasn’t on the flight to Birmingham al this morning

Just got an export scan in Shanghai, so it looks like I might be on UPS77. Just also got updated to Monday delivery, boo.
 
Ordered within 4 minutes of apple opening app for orders. Delivery date changed from 11/3 to 11/17-11/24 after checkout. X shipped last Monday, Nov 6 and as of this morning I am still waiting for it's arrival. Apple & UPS keeping changing delivery date. X's last location is in Houston since Sunday which is 2 hours from my town. I will be lucky if I get it on 11/17. So disappointed!

Don't have a date mentioned on UPS tracking website, but I highly doubt our phones made it on UPS99. Its taken off 20 minutes ago and I don't see any Departure Scan from Incheon. Most probably on tomorrow's flight is there's only one flight a day for that route.

Still in ZZ China but apparently left at 9:?? pm to 'somewhere'. No delivery date.
Funny thing is - I live about 15 min drive door to door from a big Apple store and could've gotten a phone a bunch of times over.

Starting to seriously consider returning it and rolling with my 7+ till a larger version comes out. The screen size downgrade is likely going to bother me.

Yeah, I didn’t get an export either... this is beyond upsetting and annoying. Are there any other flights from Korea to Alaska today?
