The trip starts with the bottom line, a pickup in Brooklyn (B&H). Notice anything strange?

Because of the occasional delays in the way FedEx updates their routing data, you may have picked up some of the routing of the F717 to B&H before they received and sent it to you.

I have had out of sequence delivery data like this before where a particular terminal downloads their data later out of sequence. (Apple Computers drop shipped from Taiwan via Anchorage-port of entry)

A call to FedEx provided the explanation.

Good Luck!

THIS has happened to me before. Ticks me off. A TV remote went from Seattle, to KY then back to Anchorage and down to Juneau... and they wonder why they can not over night stuff to us??? :(

What I thought humorous was the package arriving in Anchorage at 6:05 and then leaving Newark 5 minutes later. :) ..then it left Anchorage 4 hours later. Of course, if the next arrival shows some place on the East Coast I'll be bummed but I'm guessing I'll have this on Monday. Got my filters and memory sticks already, waiting for the sony flash and a LCD protector. I've been doing a lot of digital video editing (Final Cut Pro on a Mac) lately but I'm excited to get back into more serious photography.
 
That might explain what I got: though not as drastic as your NJ-AK-NJ-AK zigzag, the UPS web site showed my order left NYC on Thursday night, and then was tracked through NJ, PA (Philadelphia), CA (Ontario), then back to Illinois... ??? I thought they wanted to kill time before my Monday delivery date!

I'm in Hawaii -- maybe it's one of those "AK and HI only" things that only apply to our two outlying states...? ;-)

Oh well; as long as I get it on time!
