Anchorage, AK, United States Departure Scan
[doublepost=1540435069][/doublepost]
Hm. Mine is still "preparing to ship"

Ordered minutes after pre-order launch, and still "Arrives Fri Oct 26"

Anyone else?
Hope it makes it Friday!


Are you OP said you must be a registered "UPS My Choice" user. Apple show mine as prepared to ship as well, but UPS shows it is already in US(just left AK)
 
Strange that my XR left Anchorage 20 hours ago (shortly after midnight local time on the 24th), but still hasn't arrived anywhere. (I'm in Toronto, and it's shortly after midnight Eastern Daylight Time on the 25th.)

It will show up tomorrow or is that today? The time zones are kind of wonky.
 
received email notification this morning that my XR shipped. Left Texas, will be here Friday obviously.
 
I ordered mine from AT&T and it shipped FedEx yesterday (showing it shipped from from Irving, TX). It’s in Memphis now with scheduled arrival tomorrow by 4:30.
 
Anchorage and Toronto are only 4 hours apart.

The package left Anchorage 0:10 am Oct. 24. It is now 3:50 am Oct. 25 Anchorage time with no update. Strange.

My Max last month showed the same thing as the XR I ordered. It probably landed in Louisville, KY already and won't be scanned until it leaves for Hamilton, ON today.

Interesting that a carrier's order would ship from a different location on launch.
ATT is a Dallas company though.

I’m assuming they must get a mass shipment of them and then ship them out themselves. I ordered directly from AT&T. If I had done AT&T through Apple, my guess is it still would’ve come straight from Apple.

Yeah, that's what I figured.

I guess UPS' tracking has been changed since I last ordered.
 
Received the email myself. As soon as it's delivered tomorrow I'm calling my landlord to bring it in for me since I'm leaving the release form on front door.

Mine has shipped via FedEx as well and arrived at Ft. Worth, TX. I woke up to a confirmation (ding) txt at around 2:30am (EST). However it looks like it arrived on Sunday at Irving, TX facility, then Ft. Worth, TX on Wednesday and today at Memphis FedEx hub center around 8am. Scheduled for delivery by 3:30pm tomorrow at my office.
 
After leaving Anchorage yesterday at 0:10 am, it finally was scanned again as departing Louisville 15 mins ago, almost 36 hours after the Anchorage departure.

I’m in Toronto.

My phone was on the same flight. I'm in Dallas.
 
Import scan in Louisville at 11:17 AM. I'm about an hour from Louisville so it will leave straight from there in the morning to my house.

Mine is apparently being transported via horse from Alaska. Left at 12:10am yesterday morning still hasn't scanned into Louisville.

Not worried though as my XS didn't arrive to the nearest hub by me until around 10:00am on launch day (the hub is in a city about 3 hours away) and I still got it delivered that afternoon.

Mine was never scanned into Louisville. Mine was only scanned OUT of Louisville.

Sounds right... my XS parcel progress didn't make any sense until 30 minutes after it was delivered. All the missing pieces fell into place.
 
Departed Louisville at 15:09?
No. Mine was scanned at 15:41. It’s going to Canada.

EDIT:

Weird. The Louisville departure scan time changed to 17:15.

EDIT again:

It ended up landing in Mansfield, Ohio.

This one is new to me. In all my Apple orders to Toronto, I don't remember any of them ever going through Mansfield.
