UPS has now earned a place on my $#it list that was previously occupied by USPS alone.

As was said like twice a page for the past 2 days, the Communist Chinese government held the phones up Friday, and there were no flights out over the weekend. Blame them.
 
Here's my tracking info:

Incheon, Korea, Republic of 09/23/2014 7:56 P.M. Arrival Scan
ZhengZhou, China 09/23/2014 4:46 P.M. Departure Scan
Shanghai, China 09/22/2014 9:40 P.M. Arrival Scan
ZhengZhou, China 09/22/2014 8:40 P.M. Departure Scan
09/22/2014 5:44 P.M. Location Scan
09/22/2014 5:09 P.M. Origin Scan
China 09/22/2014 6:29 A.M. Order Processed: Ready for UPS

And I'm still scheduled for tomorrow.

Have almost all the exact same tracking but I show a 10:10 Departure

So the slow slide for my delivery continues ... on Friday it was to be delivered Monday. Yesterday it was to be delivered today. Today after my Louisville import scan it is to be delivered tomorrow (on my busiest day of the week).
 
As was said like twice a page for the past 2 days, the Communist Chinese government held the phones up Friday, and there were no flights out over the weekend. Blame them.

Blame them for the fact that my phone got stuck in KY? It was due for delivery today and was right on track until this morning. I am not one of the ones stuck in China.
 
Will everyone eventually get an "Import Scan" status update?

I wish I could say EVERYONE, but I'm sure there will be that 1 person whose phone fell in a crack and doesn't get found until later. LOL, yes the VAST majority should get an update over the next 1-3 hours.
 
Me. Have the same scans as people who left at 10:10, but I didn't leave or didn't get scanned maybe. I'm hoping for the later obviously.
Still stuck in Incheon also when others with same arrival tes kept going to US ...i'd still love to know how some ended up worldwide expedited and some ended up express saver mine is worldwide expedited...
 
Mine was showing Estimated Delivery Time on Monday, Oct 1st Preparing for Shipment yesterday. Just checked now and it's showing Shipped. It's in ZhengZhou, China right now and showing Schedule Delivery for this Friday, Sept 26th :eek:

UPS Worldwide Express Saver. Can't wait for my 6+!
 
Hey flyingwasabi,
What are the odds that people who made it to Incheon this morning are on UPS49 but didn't get a departure scan? Seems like there are quite a few of us with the same arrival scan but only some with a departure scan.
 
And now have the import scan:

Louisville, KY, United States 09/23/2014 11:14 A.M. Import Scan
09/23/2014 1:56 A.M. Arrival Scan


Just got updated from today (9/23) to tomorrow (9/24):

Scheduled Delivery Updated To:
Wednesday, 09/24/2014, By End of Day'

No import scan yet.

So for everyone behind us, prepare for the possibility of sitting in Louisville for a day due to customs.

Mine is saver. Apple bumped me to next day air so I'm guessing that's how I got on saver. Not sure though.
 
Okay, who is still stuck in Incheon and thinking they didn't make UPS49? I feel like they're delaying us for no reason.

Yep. Stuck here.

Incheon, Korea, Republic of 09/23/2014 8:00 P.M. Arrival Scan
ZhengZhou, China 09/23/2014 5:00 P.M. Departure Scan
 
Flyingwasabai - I wanted you to be wrong (nothing personal, simply self satisfaction).
My import stamp came thru at 10:31am with delivery date changed to tomorrow.
To summarize: Apple said 9/25, but UPS said 9/23 then changed to early delivery 9/22 then back to 9/23 after Shanghai'd for the weekend. It was then delayed in customs check in Louisville as it was processed with 3 or so other arriving cargo flights and until cleared customer, now changed to 9/24.
Epic story to be continued.

I didn't think they unloaded anything at Incheon, but it's highly unlikely that you missed a scan because they scan the entire plane, refuel, change crews, and go. No idea how individual phones in the shipment could be missed, but maybe there was a problem with the plane and they had to swap out planes and the second plane is smaller so some containers couldn't fit and are gonna hit the next flight out? All I can think of, but just speculation, sorry. :/
 
KY Import Scan @ 11:18AM.

Delivery date changed to Wednesday 9/24.

Being stuck in customs is neither UPS or Apple's fault so I just have to accept the delay.
 
I'm scanned & date changed to tomorrow from today.
Sure hope there's a flight to Logan scheduled so there are no more delays!
