What does this mean? I know the plane turned back. A mechanical failure has delayed delivery. We're adjusting plans to deliver your package as quickly as possible. / Your package was released by the clearing agency.

My guess is this means it's been authorized to leave the plane it was on so it can be moved to a new plane.
 
Heh...I think you all need to cut back on your caffeine intake. UPS hasn't rescheduled your packages yet. We've seen mechanical, customs and weather delays recently and things still managed to get delivered on time.
Walk away from the forum for a few hours and try to relax. Trust me...might add an hour or two to your lifespan. :)

No. It means the package cleared customs in China, was placed on an airplane for shipping, and the airplane had mechanical issues. They'll re-load it in another aircraft, and ship it on it's merry way.

Shanghai, China 06/09/2015 11:23 P.M. A mechanical failure has delayed delivery. We're adjusting plans to deliver your package as quickly as possible.

Looks like this will cause one day delay. No biggie.
 
Just my flip side of the coin.. I was hit with two "exceptions" on my UPS tracking over the weekend, it still arrived Monday lunch time, even when I was told 22-30th June, then 12th June and suddenly late Friday it was then June 8th.

So I put in an estimate from Shanghai to My house and it gave me these timeframes. Is UPS Express Saver the same as ups worldwide express saver? If so, does that mean delivery is guaranteed tomorrow? Even if it is Thursday or Friday, I'm just happy to know it is coming, but I find it interesting that estimates say 1-3 days but when I put in the info it says next day.
