Was scheduled for delivery today but this morning the UPS delivery time was replaced with:
“Scheduled Delivery:
Scheduled delivery information is not available at this time. Please check back later.”
“Scheduled Delivery:

ohh, just received it even if it wasn't out for delivery on UPS website.
Called UPS twice, told me it was still in a container and that I wouldn't have it until Monday, then, 30 minutes later, UPS guy with a nice box at the door! He told me not to believe what's in the system!
I ordered XS Max 256 at 12:02am on 14th with a delivery date of 21st. Received via UPS tracking this am 21st I’ve been “upgraded to a Saturday 22nd delivery date.” Upgraded??? Ten or so years I’ve been ordering on launch day and 1st time this has happened. I received the 4S a day early so I guess this is the universe balancing itself.
It appears UPS may be having iPhone XS and XS Max shipping issues in the United States as several MacRumors readers are reporting that their UPS tracking information was recently updated with a Monday delivery date instead of a Friday delivery date.
Affected customers seem to have tracking information that indicates their iPhone orders are located in or have just departed Anchorage, Alaska. Those who have had their shipping dates change seem to have ordered 256GB and 512GB iPhone XS or iPhone XS Max models.
These customers were expecting to get their iPhone deliveries on Friday, September 21, aka launch day before receiving the updated September 24 delivery date from UPS.
It's possible that the delay listed on the UPS tracking site is in error and that the iPhones will still be delivered on Friday, but some customers may be waiting until Monday to receive their new devices. One Twitter user told us that he spoke to a UPS representative who said that it's a computer error and the iPhones are still on track for Friday delivery.
The first customers in Australia, New Zealand, and across Asia who ordered one of the new devices have already started receiving shipments. Deliveries are set to start in a few hours in Europe before expanding to the United States.
Update: Many customers have now been told by UPS that the 9/24 delivery date listed is in error and that iPhones are still on track to be delivered by 9/21, so there is a chance that delayed iPhones will indeed be delivered to customers on launch day.
Update 2: Some users who saw their iPhone delivery dates change to 9/24 have had the dates re-updated to 9/21 once again.

After all of the shenanigans with shipping and my package being held/delayed...I HAVE MY IPHONE XS MAX!!! I’m in love!! ❤️
well, i think too many people on my driver's route ordered iphones, cause it was never delivered despite being on the truck and in the neighborhood (per the follow my delivery page) - only one street away. i guess the shift ended and the guy just went back to the mothership.
edit: well he's still driving around the neighborhood so we'll see
edit: nope, homeboy went back to the airport with my phone

9pm...still waiting on the delivery. It’s no longer showing the truck on “Follow my Delivery,” but the delivery date hasn’t changed, so here’s hoping. I guess I might find out just how late UPS delivers.
It’s a shame, too, because it was right down the street last I checked!

I like things that make sense so I hate UPS...
...Friday...Saturday...Monday...not Monday...Saturday...Not Saturday...Monday...not Monday...Saturday....
I just want to get a gift to someone but I can't because UPS sucks so much! I can't remember the last time getting a package was so difficult.

Just a quick update: Woke up this morning to see that my iPhone XS departed Louisville and is scheduled to be delivered today (Saturday). I try not to expect perfection. It's how companies deal with mistakes that I focus on. Apple and/or UPS is getting this to me the next day so that makes me happy. Hope the rest of you are peeling plastic off by days end as well!
mine left louisville at 4:33am & is scheduled for delivery by noon. it's nice to see some movement but so weird and frustrating to have rearranged my schedule and essentially lost a day to this nonsense
So all day yesterday my phone was just stuck in limbo, with no updates whatsoever. I took the day off work because I needed to be home in order to sign for the package, but obviously it never came. Woke up this morning and UPS says Saturday delivery requested so I thought *maybe* there'd be a chance of getting it today.
Called UPS and they said it still hasn't cleared Canadian customs so there's no way it's going to make Saturday delivery, and Monday is the earliest possible date, but even that isn't guaranteed. So I asked if I could have them re-route it to a drop-off point since I wont be home on Monday, and they said they have to at least make a delivery attempt first before I can do that, which could delay this even further.
First world problem and all that, it's still incredibly annoying
Never received mine yesterday. Showed zero movement all day yesterday, but I stayed home and kept waiting on the off chance they would deliver it considering it said delivery by end of day 9/21/18.
Last update was Louisville, KY, United States 09/21/2018 3:25 A.M. Import Scan.
Now this morning I see
Louisville, KY, United States 09/22/2018 6:11 A.M. Departure Scan
So it seems my phone was actually stuck in Kentucky all day yesterday. I live in California.

A mechanical failure has caused a delay. We will update the delivery date as soon as possible.
