Thats not quite right actually... all three flights won't get in until almost 2AM EDT. Then they'll get on planes for local hubs, gotta figure at least 2 hrs turnaround time.

I'd be pretty surprised if anyone gets these phones by tomorrow night. I'm thinking Wednesday at the earliest unless you live literally next to a hub.

Thankfully I do live close to a hub :)
Plus the time change should buy the West Coast a couple hours, no?

Anchorage, AK, United States 09/22/2014 1:52 P.M. Arrival Scan.

Mine was in the 12:45 AM Shanghai arrival, 9:13 PM departure bucket.

Still showing 9/25 delivery.

yep mine info is identical to yours. *sigh*
At least my crazy behind job distracted me from this all day. Now I can kick back, eat dinner, and obsess about my boo thang (gold 6+ 128gb) I've already bought her two new cases :cool:
 
Correct. It either has to go to Shanghai, Incheon, or Osaka before departing to Anchorage.

So, how do phones get from ZhengZhou to these locations? Since it's been 14 hours does that mean it's on a train and therefore most likely going to Shanghai?
 
We just have way too much time around this part of the forum :D:D

i have a 9/22 updated delivery date, it was 9/24. updated a few hours ago, but i don't see how that possible. i live outside of prescott, az lol

Plane. You are most likely loaded on the next plane going out. It will follow the same pattern as everyone else. Most likely you will arrive in Alaska tomorrow.
 
Don't crucify me for this question but…. do all iPhones need to go through Louisville first?… before delivery to the west coast? I am in seattle.
 
Well there's other flights scheduled to Louisville shortly.

Yup! The UPS99 might be cutting it close but the others should give them plenty of time to ship it off to Rhode Island (which is another 5 hours flight from Louisville)

UPS109 02:32PM AKDT (took off) - Louisville ETA: 12:24AM EDT
UPS63 03:29PM AKDT - Louisville ETA: 01:09AM EDT
UPS81 03:38PM AKDT - Louisville ETA: 01:18AM EDT
UPS61 03:41PM AKDT - Louisville ETA: 01:21AM EDT
UPS99 04:02PM AKDT - Louisville ETA: 01:46AM EDT
 
Don't forget about the time zones. I believe Alaska is 4 hours behind eastern time zone

Yes you are correct they are 4 hours behind us on the east coast. I'm in Easton PA with a 9/25 date. Ohhhhh how I'd luv to see it Tuesday or Wednesday. But I got feeling Thursday is what its gonna be. nothing against UPS but my home is like the last on their route WHICH SUCKS....

Hell I'm getting an olive brown case that's still in China

Chek Lap Kok, Hong Kong 09/22/2014 9:23 P.M. Departure Scan

with a 9/25 date also. You'd thought it would had been on plane with other 2 phones.

Yeah. Louisville is their "Worldhub" for air shipments

I think you will get your phone tomorrow instead of today! Provided your phone leaves Anchorage for Louisville tonight

ok, I did not realize I could get a departure scan and it would sit for so many hours before actually taking off. I was worried since I am 14 hours after the departure scan meant I was on a truck or something. Thanks
