Mine went from processing items to prep for dispatch on 11th then to dispatched on 12th
Hi Amiz, where did you get the schedule?
----------
Getting closerWahoo!!
Almost touching distance
Have all you "trackers" already sold your iPhone 5 in prep? I hung onto my 5, so as looks like 16th (hopefully!) I'll be selling this week. I'll try on here 1st probably, then mine and wife's work. How much for a 32Gb silver? Great condition, 2.5 months warranty left?
It's 6 hours 26 mins flight time from Dubai, so we will see a Arrival scan update on the UPS site by tommorow. If we are lucky, then by tonight.
Thanks. Money left my account yesterday as soon as my status changed to preparing to dispatch.
Still "Processing" (with dispatch date by Oct 18th)
Mine still says "Processing" (ordered on Sept 20th, around 1pm I guess - Silver 64gb).
Dispatch day by Oct 18th, Delivery on Oct. 25th.
How feasible is it that it will dispatch before the 18th? (I'm flying out on the 20th and won't return until the 7th, so curious if there's any chance to get it before the 20th... which I think won't happen).
thanks

unless it ships by Tuesday then delivery probably won't happen for the 19th/20th
u need to call and moan, some October orders have shipped, try to get a free case or soming like the yanks have been getting.
I just phoned apple, and apparently their system is down today for maintenance, so I wouldn't bother calling them if anyone is planning on it.
it says departure scan at 16:48, but theres no flights near that time? I think we are either flight UPS3 (almost landed) or UPS27 (soon to land in under 3 hours). Will the phones stay in cologne for a day? or do you think they might be flown over to stanstead tonight?

Think they go to East Midlands after Cologne don't they? I hope they don't stay in Germany for long!

This is a tracking information of someone who got their iPhone 5s. I saved it somewhere (around page 180 something) on this thread.
In the picture, 29 SEPTEMBER was also Sunday too. Scanning service still opens. I claim that we may be able to see our tracking updates today.

First they have to get to Germany
----------
I sold mine on Gumtree for £400 a week before 5s went on sale..but still, it was bargain for 64gb, 2 months old..
----------
Hey.. I ordered mine 64gb gold on 22/9, on 11/10 I got preparing for dispatch message between 24-28/10, delivered 4/11..
It was actually dispatched next day 12/10, estimated delivery on 16/10.. So your chances are good..remain positive
The departure scan doesnt mean the plane took off
It just means that the UPS guy scanned the container/box or whatever, to be loaded onto the plane.
it can take a few hours until the plane is loaded and takes off.
But like i said before.
monday - Germany
Tuesday - UK
Wednesday morning - Deliveries
in last week's delivery some people were going to try to go to UPS directly before they deliver. to collect their iphones, but not sure if they got it

I got the Dubai Departure scan too Shouldnt be long now! Our delivery date is wednesday but if everything leaves on time then its likely it could be tuesday
Yep, just not sure whether anyone will be at home to take delivery)
I took my own advice and had a couple beers.
the situation is hitting fever pitch
it all depends on how long they stay in cologne stuff usually stays there overnight but if they leave cologne in the early hours of tomorrow then some we might see Monday deliveries? fever pitch I tell ya

I'm afraid we won't see the flight on FlightAware.
The one from HKG to DXB was not there, so DXB to CGN is probably incognito too...
Fingers crossed though that UK-wide delivery will happen early because my ETA still says Thursday. Ugh, countryside Scotland...
