I'm still there. There's another flight in about 15 minutes and then another one 5 minutes after that.I'm. Still. In. Incheon.
It has been almost 24 hours. This is not okay. I'm not even in the states yet. Who else from #Team520 got denided??
Looks like we have UPS99 again which departs at 10:14PM KST, which is the normal time that yesterday's flight was supposed to leave at..
But who knows if we're going to be on that one.. Jesus take the wheel.
Got a tip for us?

I think they are just making sure it doesn't get here till tomorrow . So I'm still going to expect it then
And there was no option to pay for expedited shipping.
Let me show how much I care about free shipping on a thousand dollar phone.
Team520 and I'm still in Incheon with you. I've tried using flightaware, but I must be doing something wrong. Didn't see any flights from Korea to Alaska at all today.....
Also, it looks like a lot of flights heading to Alaska are being delayed.
As frustrating as the holds in China and Korea and Kentucky were/are I think my bigger gripe is with Apple. Why were certain people selected to get delivery on the 23rd and 24th but I was selected for the 25th?
I got the most expensive model, ordered as soon as the Apple store came up, it doesn't make any sense.
I'm not even really saying I specifically deserve special treatment, but why were random orders, much further from KY than myself, selected for earlier delivery? It makes no sense.

And the saga continues..I had it for will hold..it was confirmed...and now it says out on a truck for delivery...is this for real
UPS guy that I spoke to said that's exactly what they're doing. He said that the expedited shipments are not considered priority and that they would not be shipped until the saver shipments are sent. He told me that regardless of the fact that they been sitting there for more than 30 hours and some shipments are coming going within two hours of arrival they will continue to sit there and till they are ready to deliver them on September 25.
Where are you getting this info from? I only see one from Incheon to Anchorage, UPS99.
this is frankly quite annoying ... in Louisville ... over 30 hrs without an import scan ... just means that they made a choice to sit on it nothing else ...
And I'm sure now that i'm gonna get another whammy if they ignore my will call hold request tomorrow which makes me miss the package ...

Volume. Fact of the matter is, they couldn't keep up. And by they, I mean UPS. Even with the staggered delivery dates, they still failed to meet delivery for most people promised Monday and Tuesday.
I thought I saw something earlier about Korea having really bad weather the last few days.
An extra day isn't enough to gripe about . I just hope I see it tomorrow . If there's no import scan today , well I just don't know
What shipping did you have? Saver or Expedited?
I had the same arrival scan at 1:34am in L'ville. Yet i still have no import scan. I just want my damn phone! lol

After reading this...I'll be leaving the signature on my door just to cover me ALL around in cases UPS screws up tomorrow and puts the phone on the truck instead of holding it for Will Call

I've seen this before... give it a few minutes, and then there should be another update saying it is available for pickup. I saw it on a macbook air i ordered a while back.
Yes, they made a choice. Likely because besides the iPhones that were overdue, they had other packages with 9/24 guarantees... They took full advantage of those 9/25 dates to lighten the load yesterday's
I have never ever seen UPS sit on a package that is otherwise ahead of schedule. This time they clearly did.
Here is a macbook air I had held... you can see after my pickup was confirmed, there was still an "out for delivery" scan:

I've seen it one time (excluding shipper holds due to street date limitations). Some years ago, a package arrived at my local hub, but showed up as "Not due for delivery" on the tracking report and proceeded to sit for an extra day.
Admittedly, that might have been either UPS or FedEx; been a long time since it happened.

Don't forget that it's almost the 25th there, so you can find more by changing the date.
