My tracking says the same exact thing. I have a feeling we won't get them on Thursday though, seems a bit soon
This is the part of this that's so infuriating. What's the point of a preorder (especially when you do it in the middle if the night for us in the eastern time zone), when every Tom, Dick, and Harry can just sit around reserving the exact same phone as you and pick it up the same day?
I'm trying really hard not to be pissed off about it, but it's really hard not to.
Agree, I think they will go to Korea some time this evening, then early tomorrow leave for Alaska arriving there about 1230-1PM Alaska time, then down to Louisville by 1am or so Thursday for sorting, and then out to the rest of the country sometime that morning. Arrive in cities late morning thursday, sort and sent to delivery hubs for delivery Friday morning (hopefully at the latest).
I could possibly see some getting sorted at Louisville quickly, and sent off to closer cities and out for delivery that day, but that might be a miracle. (Crazier things have happened though)
At least you can watch it blow up in person. You can't do that with an iPhone 7 you don't have!
It won't move until around 430am ET tomorrow morning.9/19 11:30pm ZhengZhou group hasn't moved. Fingers crossed that we see some sort of movement in the next few hours.
Stupid customs. Hey guys, it's MILLIONS of iPhones... let em through!
Can you post a link so I could track as well? I have no idea what flight my phone is in. This is my latest status from UPS.

ZhengZhou, China 09/21/2016 1:05 A.M. Arrival Scan
Those that have been sitting in CGO since the 11:30 9/19 Arrival, there was a poster in the main Apple.com order thread that got out of CGO to Incheon on a 4:38PM CST time flight, he also had an 11:30PM arrival but got out yesterday 9/20. So, clearly those of us still sitting in ZHCC had their pallets detained for customs or the plane was full. So now we have another 11 hours or so until the CGO to Incheon flight again and see if we can make it on.

My phone was just scanned in a anchorage 12:50 anchorage time (25 min ago). So some made it through. Hopefully many more made it!
Was your phone one of those that UPS showed it was stuck in China at 11:30 last night with no movement since?
Thats really nice!

You match departure and arrival dates up with times on your UPS tracking scans. You can also just enter tracking number here to find out what flights your planes has been on and is on. https://www.packagemapping.com
no, you kind of have to match your scans since you're in ZhengZhou your phone is most likely going to be on a plane from incheon to anchorage

Yes. Exactly that. We gotta get our iPhone fix man
Lol. Yes we are a "bit" obsessed, but I'm semi-retired and home sick today and sometimes I need a break from Netflix and naps. Lol
It's just that first it was a nightmare with apple with the pre-order process and now it is UPS. I understand it was a huge huge demand, but it seems like the process is being handled like if it is the first time a phone has launched.
