I have the same. No movement since. I think movement will resume at 8am local time (8pm EST).
I'm curious about this too. I read that since I changed my delivery to be held at the UPS center I won't be able to see the tracking anymore.
I don't know if this is true. I hope not because even though it won't change when it gets here, I am obsessed now after following this for the last week!!
So hopefully those who had the ZhengZhou arrival at 11:30 today will keep the forum updated when it starts showing some movement!

I have been lurking for a while but decided to post. Stayed up till 2am night of release. Got in after getting kicked out, reserve crap emails and other problems with my address, was finally able my to get my order in at 2:30am central time for my 128gig Black 7plus. No shipping, no cc charges, no nothing! Very disheartening to see people who ordered later than me get Prepared to ship emails. It is what it is I guess
I thought I'd add my details:
Preordered 1 7+ MB and 1 7+ RG, both 128gb, at our local Verizon store on 9.9.16 at 6:42.
My email gives a delivery date of 10.5.16, but Verizon's website gives a ship by date of 10.5.16. It's been stuck at "We received your order and it is in process." the whole time. I'd love to see something happen soon, since there are a lot of people that ordered well after I did that are getting their phones.

Why is it disheartening? There are 1,000,001 reasons why others would have their phones shipped first. Color, allotment, logistical reasons, shipping cost-reasons depending on where you live. Different servers processing the orders etc etc. Why is it disheartening?
AGAIN, October 4 - 10th means October 4 - 10th. Will some people get theirs much sooner? YEP. Will you and me have to likely wait until October 4-10th? Potentially!
You can still see tracking events, they will just no longer offer you an expected delivery date (since they're no longer "delivering" it to you). It will arrive to the facility at the date they were going to deliver it to you, and that's the date you pick it up. In my case, they told me I should be able to pick it up a day earlier. No clue if that'll be true or not.
But you can definitely track it through its journey to the UPS customer center and then as soon as you see it's reached your local center, you can go there with your ID and pick it up!
Just I'm very impatient and to not even have any charges on my cc. Also They have my phone in a Houston apple store but it's a 4 hour drive for me. Contemplating driving if I do not get a shipping email soon.
Thank you for the info. I also set up text alert to let me know when it is ready for pick up. I work long hours but the UPS center is a mile from my work so hopefully I can grab it at lunch!
Yep. Same here. My wife's was in this position last night and it started moving at 430am ET, and it's now it's in Anchorage and about to leave for Louisville. They'll leave for Incheon, and then go to Anchorage from there. Next flight to Anchorage from Incheon isn't until tomorrow morning at 915am ET.
I was on the fence to drive an hour but no stores in my state had the config I wanted. I couldn't imagine an 8 hour round trip for a phone. Hang tight for your preorder! There's a good chance you'll get it earlier than the quoted date. When was your confirmation time?
This should be our flight: https://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS99/history/20160920/1314Z/RKSI/PANC
This year's iPhone preorder sucks like the iPad Pro preorder did.
Then it's definitely messed up. I've seen 5-10 people on Reddit posting that their AT&T black 128gb 7 Plus' have shipped, while I'm still stuck in "processing" hell. I ordered at just after 3am EST and I'm in the Oct 4th-10th timeframe.
Yep. Right there with ya. It's infuriating, especially when I see people reserving the exact phone at Apple Stores I stayed up until after 3am to preorder. I know they have different stock for preorders vs. carriers/Apple Stores, but it makes you wonder what the point of a preorder is.
I guess I can quit hitting refresh and go make dinner LOL
I'm not entirely sure how they get from Zhengzhou to Incheon, because to drive would require going through North Korea LOL. There are no UPS flights between Zhengzhou and Shenzhen or Incheon.
However they are doing it takes a couple hours. Departure scan at 430pm China time, and arrival scan at 730pm Korea time.
If this flight is leaving that late maybe that'll give my lil phone time to catch up and hop on *begins to pray again* lol
Right - I don't they have shipped yet. Keep in mind
UPS has their delivery down to a science.. or so I hope! I'm scheduled to get it this Wednesday...
