Any product being shipped internationally must go through Customs I believe. Since the phones are being shipped from China, it goes through Custom. So it will go through Customs in KY, then pallets are broken down and goes on the convey belt with those massive laser tech scanning and goes into the proper plane. So in your case, would go on the plane destination to Las Vegas.
Thanks for the input but I thought custom was in AK Alaska? So it goes through customs twice???
 
Anyone can track the Flight to KY please! Having a really hard time finding it!!!

I'm an original 2:55er and my phone departed Anchorage early this morning. In past years I remember my phone still being in China on Wednesday morning (according to UPS) and yet was delivered on time. Nice to be "ahead" this time.
 
After days of chillaxing, my credit card was finally charged yesterday morning and then movement progressed rapidly last night (now on it's way to Kentucky). SG pro max 256GB. Just gonna hurry up and wait again. Good luck to all - these next 24 hours you will see progress!
 
We have the same Departure Scan. Without giving much thought to the time zones, I am tracking two flights with the FlightAware app: Cathay Pacific 2084 and UPS 2997. If I guessed correctly, I should be getting an Arrival Scan soon.
So it could be either or?!! I don’t think it’ll be in Cathy pacific that’s not not a cargo plane
 
plane just landed (see attached) if anyone was curious. This is for anyone with a 9/17 9:05pm departure scan from Anchorage AK. Not confirming we are on this plane for sure but there certainly is a chance

For what it is worth, I am a fellow 2:55er with no progress any further, but I believe it has actually moved along quite far already. My charge posted (not pending) on Monday morning, and they don’t typically do that until it starts actually making its way to the states. Could be wrong, but think you should be confident if your charge is posted.

The only time packages will go through customs processing in ANC is when it taken off a flight for domestic arrival in Alaska or to switching to a US Flight. In the case of continuing international flights like the Atlas Air 8160 and Cathay Pacific 2084 both of these flights continued on to Louisville (SDF).

Since these two flights offload packages in Louisville that is where the packages will go through US Customs. For our iPhones that are being held for release most will stay in the Transit zone in secure storage and be processed tomorrow (Thursday) to enter the UPS sort / distribution system for delivery on Friday.

Yeah it posted to my Apple Card, and I’ve already paid it off. So there’s that even though mine says it’s in China.
