WOOHOOO!!! We got to the ups man at the mall and got the phone today!! The ups tracking may not be all that great, but the ups truck drivers are amazing, taking time to write a note of where we could meet them to get it instead of waiting for tomorrow.

My shipment has finally made it to Alaska!!! Mine and probably a lot of people in this thread is along with me. Let's see how fast they can get it out of dodge and into KY. If they can do it quick I might just be able to get it tomorrow

I was in the Oct 13-21 Group, and I just left KY after clearing customs and am now flying into LAX for delivery for me tomorrow.
AT&T 64GB SLATE GREY
ORDERED 9/12 4:30 AM PST
6 PLUS MODEL
I was notified on 9/27 of shipping and I made it out of Zhengzou real quick, like I must've got past some off you all some how! (indirect apologies)
But I am stoked, sorry some of you are waiting still!

Yup mine too!! SOOOO close! There are 7 UPS flights from Alaska to KY tonight so they hopefully will catch one of those. http://uk.flightaware.com/live/iphone
I hope we catch a flight cause I know when it gets to KY the packages usually aren't there long before they are on another flight. KY to newark nj is only 90 mins. So in a perfect world I could still get it tomorrow

I gotta wait till it comes to Canada, so i'm probably getting it next monday/tuesday (hopefully)
Anybody know how accurate packagemapping.com is? It is showing that my phone went from NY Back to Zhenzhou!!! WTF??!! (see first pic). The second pic is what UPS My Choice is showing.
UPS chat told me it was left in the building and would be delivered tomorrow. I hope packagemapping.com is wrong!

I ordered my iPhone 6 Plus on the 12th, but as I'm in Hawaii, I'm six hours behind EST. When I got my order in, the delivery time was already at 3-4 weeks, and the estimated delivery date was 13-20 October. I just got an email this morning that it was on the way. I clicked the UPS tracking link and it's on the road for delivery today! The email states that it will be delivered next Monday, but that was from Apple, not UPS. After I get home from work, I'll have a really good night! I can't wait to see just how big this thing is!
Okay so here is what happened (I read on another website how this works). UPS assumed your package was on route to KY since they bunch hundreds of iPhones together. Instead your phone had actually never left ZZ China and was part of another group of packages. So they're both correct (websites). Sorry.
I thought they individually scanned the packages once they were going to our respective cities from Louisville. This is just crazy. They really dropped the ball on this.
Saturday Delivery?
Anyone know if these are coming with high enough priority to deliver on a Saturday? In Alaska now, will likely go through Las Vegas before getting to me in AZ. Not sure that will all happen by tomorrow (Friday) but would be very easy to do by Saturday, if they will
Just don't know what kind of priority these are on, and if that includes weekend service.

Well guys my tracking is about to come to an end. My package made it from Alaska through KY and almost made it to Newark NJ but got hit with a weather delay. It was on track to be delivered today but it looks like it will be monday after all. At least it's close and not waiting to jump on a flight somewhere.
I hope you all aren't waiting much longer for your device's

Actually, mine was scheduled for October 3rd, but it sat in Shenghai on the 29th for 3 days. They got it to Anchorage, AK and then to Louisville, Kentucky now within like a day, and now are saying my package is being rescheduled since it is in KY but was to be arriving today. Since they missed me, it says it is being rescheduled for Saturday.
Mine actually made the truck for delivery today!!!!! With the weather delay I wasn't sure it would.
Let's see what happens next

I have a destination scan!!! No delivery yet though... I am hoping it will come sometime this afternoon *fingers crossed*
Saturday Delivery = Yes
So my packaged went through AK to KY, but was delayed due to weather. My status now says "UPS Proactive Response Intercept" was successful. I opened a chat to find out what that meant, and was told that means it was upgraded to a Saturday delivery.
It now says "Delivery will be rescheduled for Saturday."
So I guess they do upgrade when there are too many exceptions.
