So on a positive note.. It appears we have five MD11's coming early in the AM to Louisville. If the previous numbers are correct (190K phones per plane) then we will have 950K phones state side early tomorrow. Hopefully, that will knock a lot of our backorders out of here. Any input?

this makes sense, as AT&T are the only carriers without 256GB Black/Jet Plus's in Apple's IUP. Verizon, Tmobile and Sprint all have some stock -- Verizon more than others.

So I suspect in the next few days for at&T o have a lot of inventory on hand soon.

Cut your estimate in half to be safe and even then probably not that much. then split that up between 8 or more carriers

How can you confirm how many the other carriers have? I am super stoked if that is the case. I have a Matte Black 256gb on the way and it went into B/O status yesterday then reverted back to processing and then this morning it went back to B/O. Do you think that is because this next shipment is going to have my phone?

I was under the impression that the planes that go to Louisville are only for AT&T. Is that flawed logic?

Mine went out at like 2 AM this morning.
Yea I saw that. Seems that they drop off after that until midday next day.

Flawed yes only bc ALL planes to go louisville. I also have seen order just come straight out of memphis so the much truck them from louisville to memphis or quickly fly them. Some leave louisville and go to Dallas.
 
Just to fill in my $0.02, I ordered a 7+ JB 256GB at 3:04am EDT on 9/9. Got an email from AT&T today stating changes to my account (been with them since iPhone 1) so I checked my status and sure enough, went to backordered on 6737 and now I just got a shipping notification that it will be here tomorrow.

I first knew there was some movement because I got a text message from FedEx saying there was a package picked up for my address. I checked ATT order status via my ATT web login and it said the same it has said since pre-order day. So I was confused. I then checked order via *ORDR# and it returned as backordered. A few hours later I got a text message from ATT saying order has shipped and a little after that I got an email from ATT saying order has shipped.

Fedex text was the first point of notification for me.

Tracking Info Received from FedEx for 7+ JETBLACK 128GB. Ordered:
09/09/2016 at 4:15:29 a.m. ET
Original ship ETA Oct 7-14.

Marked as standard overnight from Fort Worth, Texas.

FINALLY!!!
Ordered one hour before you but was delayed to November. Good att, haha

It never makes any sense to me. This was the original order time from my first email. I noticed when I checked a week later that the time had moved up about 10 minutes earlier. I have no idea why. I never contacted ATT about it. I was also delayed about an hour because in the middle of entering my order at 3:01A EST the website kicked into down for maintenance and I couldn't get back in until after 4A EST and then had other issues related to no phone listed to choose to upgrade too, credit card declined for suspicious activity due to ATT placing multiple holds rapid-fire style.

I hope your's magically appears on the back of a unicorn at your front door soon!

Ordered a 7+ 256GB MB on 9/20 with shipping dates of Oct 18-24th. Order status says preparing but just checked *6737# and it's gone to back order. How long after going to back order did AT&T charge your cards??
