I live just outside of Toronto, Canada and ordered my gold 16gb 5s on October 2nd. I expected a long wait time. Finally on October 25th it changed from "processing" immediately to "shipped". UPS tracking has maintained an expected delivery by End of Day October 31st. Since October 25th, the route it has taken has not only got me confused but now almost convinced it's not going to be here by tomorrow, which, (first world problems) would be very inconvenient because tomorrow is my only day off. Here's the route:

Narita, Japan 10/30/2013 19:53 Arrival Scan
Shanghai, China 10/30/2013 16:13 Departure Scan
10/30/2013 1:00 Arrival Scan
Shanghai, China 10/29/2013 23:37 Arrival Scan
Incheon, Korea, Republic of 10/30/2013 0:25 Departure Scan
Incheon, Korea, Republic of 10/29/2013 22:55 Departure Scan
Incheon, Korea, Republic of 10/28/2013 19:48 Arrival Scan
ZhengZhou, China 10/28/2013 16:57 Departure Scan
ZhengZhou, China 10/25/2013 23:00 Arrival Scan
10/25/2013 22:15 Departure Scan
10/25/2013 13:01 Origin Scan
China 10/25/2013 9:08 Order Processed: Ready for UPS

Anyone else noticed their route looking anything like this? Or has anyone had theirs come later than the expected delivery date?
Thank you!

I just called UPS. The lady was actually very friendly (thankfully) and said that my phone should now be on a plane on it's way from Japan to Kentucky. She also said that since they haven't updated the expected delivery date that she feels confident it will still be here by tomorrow. Hopefully she is right!

I hope she's right too! I've been looking at the flights. I didn't see one from Narita to KY but I hope she is right. **fingers crossed**

I was looking at flights as well, she said Kentucky but judging by everyone else's delivery route I'm assuming it's stopping in Alaska first. SO I found that flight:

And by looking at this.. Flight isn't supposed to land until 4:13 pm Toronto time. Then it will be flying out to Kentucky and then (in my case) to Toronto. Really doubting it'll be nearby tomorrow morning for delivery.

I wonder if any of the higher-ups at UPS are aware of our plight. They could use it for their next "Logistics" commercial.

I am in the exact same status. Only difference is mine got to Korea (or was scanned in Korea) two days after yours. I have the same Scheduled Delivery date/time. Maybe we'll jump on the same plane out of Incheon and get to Louisville late tonight? That's the only way I see us getting our phones tomorrow.

I kinda believe UPS guy... because when my phone when into preparing for delivery, i checked the ups site constantly (obsessive, i know), and i noticed that the status would update a day later sometimes

Incheon, Korea, Republic of 10/28/2013 7:48 P.M. Arrival Scan
ZhengZhou, China 10/28/2013 5:50 P.M. Departure Scan

Like it arrived in Korea on the 28th, but it didn't update on the tracking site till 10/29 (yesterday).
Now my phone is expected to arrive tomorrow, 10/31, but no status updates since yesterday... still stuck in korea according to the tracking site.. UGH UPS..WHY!!! LOL

Crazy tracking:

Anchorage, United States.....10/29/2013 Arrival Scan
Incheon, Korea .....................10/30/2013 Departure Scan
Incheon, Korea .....................10/25/2013 Arrival


I thought the same thing too... but then realized that Korea is actually 14 hours ahead of us... so when it gets to Alaska, it's a few hours before... I'm guessing they're tracking the time zone of the place where it's scanned.

Yes, that's the local time of the scan. FedEx has a feature on their tracking screen that will allow you to change the times for the scans to your time zone. Too bad UPS can't do the same.
