How long do the phones typically sit in Hong Kong for?

Does anyone know when the next flight out is from Hong Kong?
 
Thank you so much for adding this info... I was stressing because my wife already received a tracking # from Apple and her phone has been in Louisville, while mine was still "Preparing for Shipment."

This trick worked for me, but ONLY without a zip code... Very strange. :) Turns out both our phones are in Louisville after all!! Both ordered the 7th around 5:00am, mine's a 64GB Black, hers is a 64GB White.


Doh! I got excited over nothing... I think that pulled up someone else's order because it lists the destination as being somewhere in PA, and I live in TN... I think omitting the last 2 digits and leaving out the zip is risky because there are probably lots of order numbers that are the same up to the last 2 digits.
 
mine is still in Chek Lap Kok, Hong Kong as of about 5 minutes ago. Hoping it gets to the house earlier in the day, but the typical UPS delivery time is usually sometime between dinner and inconvenient.. :rolleyes:
 
mine just landed in Louisville also :) I was worried cause my bank called me today and asked if the apple purchase was fraudulent, I hadn't seen it move from Alaska and thought maybe my credit card flagged it so it wasn't shipping. I even work for the bank I bank through and they still control my purchases haha
 
Looks like AT&T orders are starting to ship!

Even though I've been tracking it for two days, I finally got my Apple shipping notification.

My phone has been sitting in Anchorage since yesterday afternoon. Anyone have any idea when the next flight to Louisville is? :)


Today...I wonder how long it will sit in Louisville though :(

----------

Oh okay cool! Also I think I will not be able to be at home on Friday for the delivery, can I use myups online or call them and just tell them I want to pick it up on Friday morning?


Did you order through Apple? If so, they have a pre-sign form you can leave on your door.
 
Mine shipped the 11th, and is currently in louisville.

Is it normal that Apple hasn't charged our credit cards yet? I don't usually pre-order so this is why I ask.
 
I've been looking for my S-I-L's order for awhile now, nothing was working, they have three #'s on their AT&T plan and I tried all three. Then I logged on to their email and saw that they had their home phone # on their Apple ID account. So I searched using that and I found her shipment. Just a heads up to those who can't find it. Check to see what # is on your Order Confirmation.

Her iPhone is a 16GB white AT&T and it just shipped today.
 
well the AT&T premeier sight still shows preordered but no shipping,
but the AT&T main site shows shipped yesterday! with FedEx tracking #. but it's not showing anything yet.:(
 
I can't make sense of the flight aware site... Anyone wanna do me a solid and figure out which flight I might be on if my tracking is as follows? Thanks!

Done. Now, I need to find out which seat my iPhone is in and who it's sitting next to (I'd like them to get to know each other: maybe their seat buddies could have a reunion next year). I hope that mine takes pictures of its journey. :D

Haha! :D
 
My 32GB white model ordered through AT&T finally received its tracking number. And its coming through UPS.
 
I'm in the same boat. :mad:

Wait, they're shipping the iPhones by boat? :D /sarcasm

On a serious note, while that is a bit concerning, it's often that the tracking is delayed. I've had packages already in my hand and the delivery tracking said nothing!
