I was reading the Sept 27-29 delivery thread and they had the same scan that said "Pkg shipped; delivery being scheduled" and this is what two people said:

"I got this same cryptic message on 9/20/16 3:44 PM. For me it was 2 days after the arrival scan. The next item on my Shipment Progress was the Import Scan @ Louisville, KY on 9/21/16 3:21 AM. I had my phone by lunch time on 9/21. The only reason I've come up with is UPS had stuck my pallet of phones on a 3rd party carrier so they skipped all the intermediary scans. There were several just like mine earlier on this thread.

Hopefully you will be pleasantly surprised when you wake up tomorrow as well."

and another guy said:

"I bet you'll get it tomorrow. My tracking said that on Tuesday, and I got it the next day."

idk if this means anything. Just thought it was interesting because no one seems to know what our scan means.
There is nothing on my tracking. Jesus!! Still on the Arrived in Icheon 8:01pm

You know, I am thinking the same thing. My message actually says it will be FORWARDED to a UPS facility in my city. So I am wondering if like you mentioned, UPS doesn't actually have my package, but someone else is getting it to the facility in my area, which is why there are no additional scans after the arrival scan in Incheon.
 
Why do some people get scans/updates sometimes hours before other people?this is the oddest shipping experience I've ever had in my life
 
Not true... there was a batch that went from China straight to Louisville and out for delivery!! Nothing in between China and Kentucky!! Hell of a gas tank on that sucker!

Do you know what flight that was, someone at UPS tried to tell me today and I could not find the flight anywhere.
 
Yeah, maybe "pkg shipped" means they handed it over to a third party? UPS doesn't even seem to know what this means though, so wtf do I know lol
 
Just realized this on the mechanical failure: "We're adjusting plans to deliver your package as quickly as possible."

That could mean thats why theres two flights out of Incheon tomorrow. OR it could mean that they found a third party to get it to Alaska or somewhere in the US
 
Andrea strikes again...

My phone just got a departure scan from Louisville. I feel like im the only one on here with any movement. Sorry guys :(

I'm just imagining a huge building with a bunch of employees and just one lonely iPhone being moved thru the process while the employees look around wondering where the rest are.
