Made it out of Anchorage - there were a few UPS flights that left Anchorage around that time:

  • Anchorage, AK, US
  • 11/13/2017 3:53 P.M.
  • Departure Scan
  • 11/13/2017 4:27 A.M.
  • Arrival Scan
  • 11/13/2017 6:22 A.M.
  • The package is awaiting clearing agency review. / Your package was released by the clearing agency.
  • Incheon, KR
  • 11/13/2017 2:28 P.M.
  • Departure Scan
Should get to Louisville sometime around 1 AM tomorrow. Hoping that equates to deliver on Wednesday.


Happy to report that my iPhone X was delivered today! Incredible that it took 5 days to get from ZhengZou, China to Anchorage (via Incheon, South Korea), but only 1 day to get from Anchorage to South Dakota (via Louisville).

Sadly, I was occupied this afternoon and by the time I learned that my iPhone had been delivered, my office's mailroom had closed for the day. But I will get it first thing in the morning!

would you mind posting your shipping information history? Trying to get a rough idea of a timeline
 
My phone is on UPS85 on its way to anchorage right now. Then will take off to Louisville and arrive there a little after 9am tomorrow morning. Got bumped up to Friday again on ups.

how do you figure out the exact flight? couldnt find any flight that left shanghai although my tracking says

Shanghai, China 15/11/2017 7:00 Departure Scan

same as yours I believe? UPS85 left an hour prior to this departure scan :s

I just guess based off relative time. I knew my phone was on UPS99 as it was the only one from Incheon to Anchorage at the time, and sure enough, it was. But right now, its on some flight to Kentucky, but I'm not sure of which 3 airplanes it is. It could be UPS105, UPS63, or UPS51.
 
Im in this group scheduled for 11/16 delivery:

Louisville, KY, United States 11/12/2017 9:18 A.M. Arrival Scan

I live in Louisiana so I still think its possible to travel from KY to Louisiana by the 16th. Just really didn't expect that the phone would sit in there this long. Hopefully we get some movement tomorrow.

I'll probably not be home all day on the 16th and miss my delivery(if it ever departs from KY). I am hoping they deliver it after 5:30pm that day so I can actually sign for it.

Delivered today, west coast. Good luck to everyone... this was one of the funniest preorder forums so far, and made the shipping bedlam, especially inching out of Incheon tolerable...


I hope you all enjoy your new phones...It is absolutely worth it. They're coming, hang in there.

Of course, P-Beta 3 popped up on my 7+ 15 mins before UPS, and I couldn't help it, OTT getting set up is easier than ever!

See ya next year...

Our shipment should be on UPS61. Departure scan was 3:48PM same as flight UPS61. Its currently 1 hour away from landing in Louisville. Its getting exciting from here on out!
 
Originally supposed to be 13th. Then after sitting in Korea for 5 days it changed to 16th. Finally started moving yesterday morning and Made it from Korea to DFW in about 24 hours. So yes it beat my UPS estimate by 2 days, but it took a total of 7 days on shipping. 11/7 to 11/14. I’ve posted my shipping details below.

I might wind up with an even LONGER ship duration. Below is the latest status from UPS from a few minutes ago. UPS "tentatively" says they will deliver on the 16th - which is 8 days after shipment. It is coming up on 24 hours in Korea after sitting 6 days in ZhengZhou.

Delivered to Denver yesterday morning.

After a 3-day pause in Incheon, it only took a day to get here. I don't think there was any delays in the status reporting since I checked on UPS flights and they sync'ed up with departure and arrival times.

When ordered delivery estimate was 11/17-24. When the shipping started the delivery date was 11/14. But when it hit Incheon, the increased 3 days, to 11/16. Not bad since it was still a day earlier than the earliest day promised. However, what was worrisome was the estimated delivery date had change to unavailable. In My UPS the date remained 11/16.

Once it left Incheon on 11/13 things moved quickly. The date in My UPS suddenly jumped up to 11/14. I didn't think it was possible to make it here in a day, but it did...with a morning delivery to boot.

Here's the timeline for those who's X is inching along in Incheon...

Made it to NJ literally about 10 minutes ago. Got the arrival scan, but oddly, still no delivery date. Here’s to hoping it’s today! I can’t see why it wouldn’t be if they have about 11hrs to get it to my house, since it’s 7AM and delivery times end at 6PM... Please UPS, don’t shaft me again, just let it be delivered today!
