Dang. I was going to cancel but the Verizon rep said it already left for shipping and I should get an email about it today or tomorrow morning.
 
I actually have a tracking number now... Fedex hasn't done anything with it yet though.

So when can I expect to get my iphone, realistically?
 
I'm wondering the same thing, I can dig in the My Verizon site under order history and find an actual order number but it shows not to be a good number but the long number I got with my 9-21 order just shows what yours does.

FWIW - I got an email yesterday saying the phone shipped and it showed up today. The order status page was also updated at that time.
 
I believe this is the flight that carries phones directly to Verizon.

The other flights may have iphones, but I believe those are for stores & etc.

Remember that pattern I was talking to you about and the waves of shipments? This flight only happen Weds-Fri and these are usually when we start seeing the waves. Today is Weds, and a flight is coming in. This would also correlate with the big Oct 14th wave. The phones shipping out today, tomorrow, fri would be delivered on the 13th and 14th.

Although We can only see 1 direction, Memph to AK the returning flight is not listed. But that could be another flightaware archiving goof.

This is just my theory, ofcourse but I am willing to bet people will start getting S Iconic Status and Shipping Info Tomorrow and Fri.

It honestly makes a ton of sense. The 3 flights/shipments a week make sense as to when the members on here are seeing some movement as well. Great find, and it really does make sense. So, I wonder what that flight number is, I think there is a MD11 and 2 777's that run the route. We will have to look later this evening for when the flights leave Anchorage and what ones only run 3x/week.

I'm new to this forum and wanted to see if you guys would know when I should be getting my iPhone 6 plus gold 64gb. I preordered mine on the 15th. When I check my expected ship date online it says the 24th. When I talk to a rep they said it's expected to ship on the 28th. I just want it already. Kinda regretting not ordering through apple.

Yes, a lot of us are regretting ordering through Verizon. We can't really tell you when to expect your order all you can do is check your back account for a charge. If you get a charge then you should expect a shipping email pretty soon after that. If you did edge all you can do is check your order status.

same boat, different model. The 24th should be the real date.
 
Supposedly an email will be sent out from Verizon today about a delay in orders till next week. Was suppose to have mine this Friday. Not getting it until next Friday.
If this is true I'm going to be super pissed!:eek::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::(:confused:

My account rep with Verizon said the the trade in deal ended 9/30. I am not a big Craig's List user. I suppose I could have went Ebay.

Yeah the store manager I originally ordered through said that but he also said that Verizon would inevitably extend it to 10/15 because of the uproar over the issue of no one being able to actually do it without the phones serial number and IMEI number...He told me to do the trade in online if the phone didn't arrive before 10/15....
