Got to Alaska on flight 59 yesterday then nothing. What's strange is flight 59 continued on to Ontario, Ca which is only about 40 miles from me. Why would they take the phone off the plane?
 
At least yours is in the US...

Mine has been stuck at the first stop since yesterday morning....

I wouldn't worry about it...shipping companies have tons of experience with logistics and people get paid insnae amounts of money to figure out the most efficient way to get packages places. If they took it off the plane they probably had a good reason too.
 
I'm sorry, but I have to laugh at this because the same posts appear every year since the iPhone was able to be preordered. Your iPhone is on the way; the tracking updates tend to slow down because of the sheer volume of iPhone being shipped.
 
They are stuck in customs. I bet custom agents get off at 5pm, so they will go out soon.

Apparently your phone had keistered a balloon with an as-yet unknown substance. It's been detained by TSA for further questioning. Siri has been quite uncooperative however.
 
What is the point of all these tracking threads? There seems to be a baseline fear that people aren't going to get their phones on the 14th, yet there have never been widespread major delays for preorders in years prior, and all evidence points to timely delivery for Friday. So what are you people so freaking scared of that you have to create dozens of useless separate threads?
 
Mine has been in Louisville KY since 9:28 am Tuesday. No change since yesterday and I am in Atlanta. I had hoped it would arrive in Atlanta last night and be out for delivery today but that does not look like its going to happen.

It's very cold up there. :p
 
Dunno. Mine said 2:18 Anchorage yesterday. Now it says 9:28 AM Louisville.

Awesome! I was proved wrong. Sometimes they go thru customs in Anchorage, sometimes Louisville. Just glad it's less than a 2hr flight.
 
Mine also arrived in Louisville, KY at 9:28. I am not obviously scared as to whether it will arrive by the 14th or whether it will arrive early.

Siri to customs official

"this is not the package you are looking for"

:D
