Looks like two planes have landed and two more are coming in, with one coming an hour later.
May the odds be ever in our favor.

Ahhhhhh, at least you have a label made for you. You'll probably get yours on Monday-Wednesday at the latest. Maybe even tomorrow if you're lucky 😉

I wouldn't worry about any of those texts. All of the texts and emails were basically proven bogus today and had no merit.
The best thing to do is keep checking UPS. Countless people have proven that's the only reliable way.
Just received UPS info saying today (saturday est) it will be shipped and it was all updated online through t mobile. They said I would receive it on friday and got text, email and even CS told me so. I never got also confirmation from T Mobile that it did ship. Looks like they are doing Sat deliveries though.

Here is the thing I have been wondering all along. Are the phones they take off the plane already assigned to a specific carrier and person? Or do they break down the pallets and go from there?
There's more planes on their ways to other UPS hubs. These seem to all come for Alaska. My guess China -> Alaska-> CONUS Hubs -> local hubs -> Doorstep.
But idk, I'm just another hopeful recipient haha

I'll give you 3 guesses at which website I've been refreshing the most these past 2 days 😉

I honestly have no idea. I want to say those planes are all for T-Mobile since the router is also shipping from Kentucky, but that's just me being super hopeful. Chances are they break down the pallets and go from there.
Yeah, if your order status goes from backordered to pre-order it's really good.. it means your phone will be shipped out as soon as they get their next shipments of the phone you ordered.

I'll probably go to sleep in a minute after I finish this episode. Please, will one of you guys in the same situation as me DM me in case something happens such as you get a label, received the phone, new texts, status changed and what not? I have a feeling there's going to be more than a few pages to go through when I wake up if people truly are getting devices tomorrow.

Mine says pre-ordered with the pink check and the status history says back ordered since 9/17. I would assume since I haven't heard squat they haven't gotten any other 6+ 16gb golds yet. If that means what you're saying that means.

So that explains my odd "Saturday" email-- didn't even realize it was a whole different tracking number.
I did not use jump and have not requested a router-- just the one upgrade.
Guess we'll see what happens!
But that flightaware is just labeled /iphone. Not like tmobile's iphones or something.
Having that status is a good thing, make sure it's really there though. When it first started showing up yesterday I found out it wasn't reliable. But if you clear your cache, and it hasn't changed than its a really good thing. All carriers are fighting each other and begging apple for more phones.. iPhone 6+'s weren't meant to be this much of a demand, their predictions for sales were short. So now they're scrambling to get shipments into the US. You most likely won't get your phone this weekend, next week and probably even the next. But you wont have to wait 8 weeks.
And me. Got the 9/22-9/30 text but nothing else since. Phone still shows up as "backordered" and hasn't been charged. JUMP Customer here who ordered an iPhone 6+ 16GB Silver at around noon Pacific on 9/12.
All of the texts were proven bogus? Not true. Dozens of people in this thread got the Friday text and got their phone today (Friday).
Trust me - that was just a coincidence. Waaaaay too many of these texts and emails have been proven false. If you send out tens of thousands of texts, you're almost guaranteed to have a few cases where they're right.
By bogus, I mean the texts weren't connected to any real data. It was just luck and coincidence, that's all.

Cleared cache it still shows up. Robocunt says the same **** she's said forever. "processed but not ready for ship" I gave up this weekend's goal back the other day. Sometime next week is the goal here.
