Lets discuss if any changes!
 
So far, I'm still at 9/21/18 delivery. Let's go, UPS!

Seems like a scan issue more than anything else.

Got a departure scan at 11PM on 9/20. Now at 12:59PM is says "Package is at the clearing agency awaiting final release"

UPS shows 9/24. Apple webpage shows 9/28.

Yesterday when I tracked by Order number it showed delivery Friday 9/21.

There are numerous sticky threads at the top of this forum to discuss the same subject as this. No need to make a new thread. If you ordered from Apple or your carrier, pick the appropriate sticky thread and respond.
Yeah we know. We’re all from the Apple.com thread. And that thread has been over run with people worrying about their phones being delivered tomorrow while it’s already in Louisville. Our phones have been stuck in ZhengZhou China since Sunday with absolutely no movement. That’s why this specific thread was created so we could talk to each other about the same problem that we are all facing

Yeah, kind of disagree. It's really hard to find the relevant posts in the main thread. Most people's phones are already in the US, but there's definitely a batch that are running late. I'd like to keep track of how the other 210s are doing without sorting through hundreds of Louisville posts.

I have one 210 that's still in Incheon. It shows "Tentative" delivery tomorrow by UPS MyChoice.

I have another 210 that left Incheon this morning, it shows as On Time for delivery tomorrow.

I think the problem is that thread was being flooded, and this group has a... unique problem.
There have been several people in the sticky threads with the same concern. Many have now seen movement. I get that many are anxious. It helps to heck there stickies.

Mine was stuck there until recently. I don't see this as a real problem. I see it as people being overly anxious about their iPhone delivery tomorrow. A problem would be your phone not getting shipped, sent to the wrong place, lost, or mislabeled.

Once the product clears customs, there will be accurate up to date tracking.

Same scans, still sitting on 9/21 delivery.
 
wtf, earlier today my 2:10 ZZ finally showed updates happening in Korea, but now I refreshed my tracking page and all the Korea stuff went away. We're back to this again.

It could be, but I don't think that's likely. These items received identical scans up to a point, but not since. That's not the typical appearance of scan issues or missing scans. It looks more like some made it, and some did not. Just being realistic based on the data.

Add to that, they all have the Rescheduled Delivery warning, which is not promising.

That's even more interesting. Speaks to some weirdness.

Not seeing any UPS flights out of ZZ anytime soon. So unless they contract it out. Maybe it’s not looking so good.

Interestingly... I ordered 2 - 256 MAX Gold phones. One was through the IUP and the other Sim-free both ordered within 10 minutes of each other at around 1215a PT.

The IUP order was sitting in ZZ for a while, then finally hopped over to Incheon on 09/19, then departed today at 1107p Local from Incheon.

The Sim-free order has been in ZZ with no movement at all since 09/17 and is part of the 0210a club in ZZ.

I received shipping emails from Apple on both this morning within minutes of each other.

We'll have to see how it all pans out over the next 24hrs.

Both devices are still showing delivery by end of day on 09/21 at UPS.com.

Do you think they didn’t have enough planes? Or they forgot some in another warehouse?
 
i feel like its a customs issue, but im hopeful they will come, this is so weird.

Mine is the same. Had been showing arrival, but not departure from, Incheon as of this morning. Now all those updates are missing. Might be some UPS database issue happening as well.
 
Weird thing is that I had the more verbose statuses for both of my shipments (one stuck in Incheon, one in ZZ-2:10) and they both cleaned up. The ZZ had shown up as Incheon for a bit, now it's back to ZZ-2:10. The Incheon-stuck order has arrived in Anchorage. I wonder what prompted them to clean up the status for both?

ur back in zz 210?
 
I've been following this thread since I'm also in the same group. My wife's phone was part of the UPS97 group. Does everyone here who has had this happen have multiple phones coming to the same address? And if so is one of those packages part of the Incheon 11:07 departure (UPS97)?

I only have the one phone coming. My watch has a departure scan out of Louisville, so at least I'll have that to play with tomorrow!
