If that's the case, I hope yours leaves soon. :( :(

Mine is in Louisville now ...

Finally got that departure scan... sometime in the earlier morning. The time stamp says 22:48 (10:48 pm anchorage time) so it was scanned not too long ago. I got pushed back to a later departing plane (I think UPS 2997) and will probably land in Louisville around 8 something in the morning (EDT).

Yours is probably on its way to Canada now. Enjoy, and post some pictures, if you're ok with that! :D

Shipped? Maybe

Got to love AT&T, one status page says shipped with no other info, and another status page says processing pending confirmation.

I'm both happy and sad!:) :(

Gold 64 GB ordered 9/20 at 10 PM thru AT&T online.

Ordered Gold 64GB AT&T from Apple.com 9/20 at 8 am. Still Processing..

Ordered my 32GB Gold ATT on 9/20 at 6:30 am. Sometime overnight, it went from Processing to "Preparing". This has happened before, I will wait to see if it ships this time. :rolleyes:

Glad yours is on its way also!! :)

Strange, my credit card was authorized since the 9th for my 5s. My device went to the "Preparing" stage and the charge dropped off my credit card. Don't know how long my phone will be preparing for shipment, I hope this isn't a new screw up. It wouldn't surprise me. :eek:

Trust me... you don't want to know what plane your phone is on. ;) :D

No offence, but it just further adds to the stress! :)

If you're really dead set on knowing, then check on flightaware.com. Look for the UPS flights.

I certainly hope so, I'm starting to go to work in a bad mood ! Very stressful !
 
Hang on there guys. Worse case scenario is you all have 1 week before your Gold ones ship out. You waited this long already so why stop? :)
 
How do you like it so Far? I'm glad yours arrived safely. Any gyro,compass Problems?

It's pretty cool, fingerprint thing is pretty awesome for purchases. Other than that, feels like a 5. I haven't tested the compass and level. Don't really use them....
 
Correct me if I'm wrong. Apple is going to be announcing new iPads before I can get my hands on the product they released last month? Probably get my hands on an iPad (5th gen) before a gold iPhone. Cool.

No one can say for sure... you just have to match up the arrival and departure scans to the flights, as best as possible.

What is your phone's shipping destination? Maybe I can help you.

Sept. 20th orders

I ordered a Gold 64 iPhone 5s and the ship date was the end of October. Apple meanwhile, is taking my phone model off the production ramp and shipping it to foreign countries first. How nice is that. Its probably what happened to your model.:mad:

EUGENE, OR, US

Ok... I think it may take a flight plan like this:

ZhengZhou -> Incheon, South Korea (This plane must be unmarked, cannot find flight number).

Incheon -> Anchorage (UPS 99)

Anchorage -> Louisville (UPS 99 or 109)

Louisville -> Portland, Oregon (UPS 974 or 2974)

Once landing in Portland, it probably will travel by van or truck to the facility responsible for delivery.

I have not seen any flight patterns for Oregon deliveries... so I'm hoping that the flight into Oregon is correct. Otherwise, the rest should all be ok.:)
 
Sept 20th orders with October ship date, Apple.com buyers. [MERGED]

Lol wut? Do you already have an import scan though?

Nope nothing. Doesn't look good for a phone that's supposed to be delivered "by 12" according to UPS.

I have some really important exams today, tomorrow, and Friday, and this isn't helping me study. :p

So the last thing you got was the arrival scan, last night? Maybe their scanners are down.

The plane my phone was on (supposedly), landed roughly 10 mins ago. If I get an arrival scan, then yours might have missed the flight in, this morning. That's really weird, by now you should be seeing scans from within Canada.

Maybe yours decided to hang back and wait...;):rolleyes::D
