Pretty weird they have a UPS99 and UPS99A literally flying in sync. I bet it's a lot of 7/7+ on those flights

I bet they're trying to make up for the snafu with our phones in China at 11:39 by sending two planes simultaneously to Anchorage from Incheon.

Edit: Oops, I think I read that chart wrong. One of the US99 planes is already in the air. Fingers crossed anyway.
 
Someone previously mentioned this but oddly enough, the UPS My Choice Calendar is showing delivery for tomorrow but when I click on it the new Thursday date shows up. I'm beginning to think that there may have been some missed scans - perhaps intentional to get things moving faster on UPS' behalf - but we'll see what happens. The way I look at it I was given an Oct 4 - 10th date, if it shows up before then it's all good.

Makes me think they had a big time screw up on their end. That's not a normal flight. I've been watching these flights for years at launch time and can't recall ever seeing that "a" designation before.

Nope the usual flight numbers I've always seen are UPS77 or UPS99

I already got my phone by just going to the store but here is a DP that might mean sooner than expected delivery.

- the tracking numnber apple gave me shows it's still in Inchon. That's the bad news.
- however if I use the order number which I'm fairly sure is a customs optmized shipment has left inchon, gone to anchorage and left anchorage at 3pm alaska time. which means it's about to land in the central hub then off ot it's destination city. (1 hop out).

if that latter trackign is correct, it could arrive quite soon.

I get same data either way. :-( It could be that someone else had the exact order number as you except for last two numbers.

Yep. Plus if UPS did screw up why would they admit it when they can just blame it on a customs issue in China and most would never have any clue it was anything else.

That might make sense that they will wait to do scans when arrive in Louisville. Send out a second plane and put forgotten phones on it. Then scan when caught up o_O

nah - they've been in lockstep till now- one is a custom order (a bulk order that is batched to get thru customs faster).

i think they get scanned at different points.

I get all the same data either way too. There have been a ton of phones that have had the same times on their shipments as others, it seems like it's somebody else's order
 
My Jet Black 128 GB 7 Plus (AT&T) is now scheduled to arrive this Thur, 9/22.

Original order details:

-Ordered on 9/9 at 12:18 AM PST (site/app didn't go live until 12:16 for me)
-Apple Store website
-Delivers 10/10-10/17
-Shipping to NY, NY

Very happy that it's coming 3 weeks early.

Funny thing is, I was in Japan during the pre-order week, so they went live at 4 PM there. I was so happy to not have to wake up in the middle of the night for once. And then the site opened 15 mins late LOL.

I've always gotten a phone on launch day, but I wasn't upset for some reason. This early bump makes me glad that I wasn't stewing in anger over it :)

Boo....I ordered a 128g matte black with a confirmation of 12:18PST on 9/9 (Delivers 10/4-10/10) UPS originally said I'd get it 9/22 (as of yesterday) and now it changed to 9/23! Goes to show, some get luckier than others! :cool:

IPhone 7+ plus jet black 128gb I ordered It On Apple Store (T-Mobile) paid In full
I was First at oct4-oct10 but the expedited to sep30-oct6. Im still stuck In processing. Everyone around me is shipping or phone has been shipped. I don't think it's fair that I'm still processing when I ordered before half of all of you !
