It was around 3am UK time if I remember correctly. I didn't go to sleep until around 4am and there was no Departure Scan at that point.
Got a tip for us?

my departure scan form Incheon showed 11.50 local time, just wondered how long after the plane actually took off. 3am BST would make it around 12.00 in Korea so quite soon after the scan

the people who had 7-10 day dispatch started seeing that status on Thursday so just under a week. people with the longer window have not seen it change yet. I'd assume people waiting for mid october deliveries would be see a change at the end of this week or next.
pure speculation though from me
The UPS plane which is going to Cologne has just touched down in EMA. I'm guessing it'll get refuelled and we'll see it take back off within the hour to go and get our iPhones

Tell a lie, I have done a launch before, I did the MBP Retina I didn't bother with the tracking and plane spotting though lol.

sadly, its my 3rd iPhone launch + a Macbook Pro too i've had this fun with.
i know this time tomorrow I won't even remember to sign in here but rest assured i'll be back next year!
any 6S+ leaks yet?

Yup me, just pre ordered the ultimate edition download on xbox one whilst playing watchdogs and browsing this and the UPS at same time haha
I generally skip the S models... Had every iPhone since the first except the S ones.
First one, I just walked into an O2 shop and picked it up, no trouble. 3G & 4 were work phones and we had a rather large spend with O2 so managed to get 15-20 delivered on launch day without hassle. 5 was an online pre-order and managed to get launch day delivery.
looks like UPS236 did most of the flying between Cologne and UK (Stansted)

last sunday the flight left at 23:19 so some could have left already!
----------
Yup. but hardly get to play anymore with the kiddies taking up my time! damn them

That's the plane that just landed at East Midlands, so it'll go to Cologne first then come back...

More of a TitanFall fan at the minute, until the next Call of Duty anyway.
I'm hoping they do go to Stansted and not just to East Midlands otherwise my phone will have a 3 - 4 hour lorry journey before it even gets to my local depot!
Let's hope everyone in the South gets movement on there UPS Tracker within the next hour or so then!
Is this plane due to leave Cologne tonight?
Well at least we have a date now! What a mess that was on both Apple's and UPS behalf! Wonder how Apple managed to send out the incorrect (for most) 'delivery update' email and at the same time UPS not have an estimated date! Oh well, back on track now! Any ideas what times we will see departure scans from Germany?

Anywhere between 11:30PM and 3:30AM. It looks like there may be 2 flights, 1 to Stansted and 1 to East Midlands.

Cargo planes don't have arrival and departure times we can find lol, they sort of just pop up

Not so sure Jinjin! Last year it said it was at the local hub, then by 9am (I had left the house) the tracker told me it had been out for delivery since 7am! Hope we get the scans appear on our tracking info quickly this time!

Ahh fair enough! That would explain why I can never find them
if you have any flight numbers that you wouldn't mind sharing? Not so sure Jinjin! Last year it said it was at the local hub, then by 9am (I had left the house) the tracker told me it had been out for delivery since 7am! Hope we get the scans appear on our tracking info quickly this time!
I'm hoping to wake up at 7am and at least find it at my local hub in Chelmsford

if your delivery date shows 22nd then id says its safe to assume it will turn up..
I was pissed last friday morning missing the initial batch of preorders by minutes, but great work by apple to get us our phones by the next working day.
