For those in the midwest, Seems that UPS is shipping some phones out by truck from Louisville.

Indianapolis, IN, United States 09/23/2014 7:14 P.M. Arrival Scan
Louisville, KY, United States 09/23/2014 3:58 P.M. Departure Scan

I'm waiting for my phone to arrive tomorrow in Chicago, and it seems that it might actually arrive.

Mine is still stuck in Louisville since 1:34am and is a 9/25 delivery. I wish i had your delivery status right now......
 
For us 9/25ers. Around when would we see an import scan?

Good question. My gut is sometime tomorrow when the bulk of the scans were done today.

if I get a scan within the next 6 hours or so my phone should be on the long flight out back halfway to China

I can't see UPS wanting to hold these shipments even more, as they have more waves of them coming and it would only cause more mayhem.

That's what I figured. So again. It takes 45 min for a flight to get to a
Atlanta from there. I live 30 minutes from ATL. I can't fathom why it wouldn't arrive tomorrow unless UPS purposely delays it so it won't get here till Thursday

It's a way of life, a code, a struggle.



I have it tattooed on my inner arm.


Lmao that's funny.
, but yet not really. I follow this code too
 
I don't get how my phone wasn't on the Newark plane this evening. I had a 1145am import scan...

I don't understand either. I had an Import Scan at 12:30PM EST. That plane to Newark didn't leave KY until ~3:58PM EST. I think that's plenty of time to get our phones onto that plane. But I don't know, I'm not sure how these logistics really work. But to me, it should've made that plane.

What concerns me is that with the downtime between the Import Scans done, and now, there has been zero movement on ours.

Either Customs has long layover between shifts, they are dealing with other cargo, or we are being held for tomorrow.

What if there's not enough room? Sure the times jive, but the fact is we don't really know much about the volume.
 
I feel like our phones are being held hostage. If you have a delivery date of 9/25 and you are expedited. UPS puts a hold on all those phones and are not allowed to release them any earlier. Like how release dates are handled with Apple. Just put the damn phones through customs already.
 
We've gotta hold on to what we've got.
It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not.
We've got each other and that's a lot.
For love we'll give it a shot
Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa, livin' on a prayer
:p

Well of course that's definitely a factor. It just seems like we were all part of the same flight into Louisville since we all had a similar Import Scan. And only a few of the NJ phones made it out of Louisville. I mean, of course I know that that plane had a ton of other packages on it, but it just makes sense for them to be together.
