I also have an October 7-14 window. From what I’ve read around the internet it seems it could come early but I highly doubt it will be here by launch day. Mine has not even moved to preparing to ship yet. No charge on my card or any indication from ups. Chances are unbelievable slim it comes that early.
Got a tip for us?

I've not been on here much so far today, but I wanted to ask if anything changed so far today for you in the app?
Right that's what I thought you were guessing it would go to SDF and yes normally Canada deliveries mostly hit SDF but that's why I noted it's final destination of Ontario California. Keep an eye out for maybe a scan in ANC to offload some Cargo to go on to SDF.
I have seen a couple of references that indicated iPhone 16 units that have a SIM tray are being assembled in Kunshan City which would cover your Canada models.

Agreed. Must of contracted it out this year. I think in the past they have used atlas for some flights.
I'm an old guy... haven't used an alarm clock in 40 years or so... I always wake up early for any events - phone pre-orders, flights, meetings, etc. It just happens.
Tuesday so just over an over ago from the time of this comment
For everyone that has a departure scan from ZhengZhou at 1:35 AM on Tuesday it looks like GTI8171 from ZhengZhou to Anchorage is the flight to track. You can find it here: https://www.flightradar24.com/GTI8171/37215515
I'm probably answering this and someone else has already commented, but yes, it will go through those places. If you're in the 6:30 PM ZZ latest scan group (Wave 2), then I'm anticipating based on last years' scans, that we will see movement both departing ZZ & Arriving Incheon, KR later this afternoon or evening. I was in this same wave last year where my scan times so far were very similar and then the next scan showed up, that I noticed, at 6:00 PM what would be today showing scans two days after the original date scan in the early AM (4:34 AM Departing ZZ & 7:25 AM Arriving Incheon, KR). So we'll see how close those times are when they finally appear.
Cheers! I'm on that flight (or my phone is...) -
Apple's cases haven't had a cutout at the bottom for years now. They are flat all the way around. The only opening is the tiny holes for speaker/mic, and the charging port.
Yeah, I know, I'm trying to catch up on reading these, but I'm not able to be on here as much today, so a bit behind and probably answering things that have already been commented on, but if you're talking directly to me, I'm answering those.
You should go from ZZ to Incheon, KR, not directly to Anchorage.Cheers! I'm on that flight (or my phone is...) -
It doesn’t look like that’s happening this time around. At least not for Wave 1 anyway.
The clear case does have a cut-out
On more than one occasion, some of us routed ZZ > Chek Lap Kok, Hong Kong instead of Incheon, Korea, then on to Anchorage. We'll soon see which route we take!
Seeing how excited everybody here is for the new iPhone is cool. I'm getting the 16 PM and decided to check out these forums and made an account with all the hype, lol—cool tips on how to track your phone.
I’m still enjoying the sites of ZZ china.
Maybe I was stuck in the restroom when my flight took off. Haha

No they use contract flights for extra shipments. It helps keep UPS costs down as they don't have to have extra capacity within their system for only a couple of weeks each year.

Welcome!!! This thread in particular is a huge tradition that's been going on for many years. There are a few every year who try to rain on our parade and don't understand our enthusiasm, but they can't spoil our fun. This is a great community.
They have in the past went straight to Alaska. Looks like they’re doing the same this year. We should find out for sure around 830pm eastern time tonight
Yeah, the Apple Store app won't change to Shipped until it gets to Louisville. It will remain Preparing to Ship. To track your phone, get the UPS MyChoice app and it will automatically show up on there. Probably already answered, still catching up. 🤣
