April 7! That’s why I was so surprised about yours coming so quickly.

i5/16/512 for me though, not sure if that’s the reason it’s been taking so long?
Same config here, ordered on April 3rd. Something odd is going on, but lets face it, these are odd times.
 
I ordered an i7/16/512 from Expercom on 3/31 and got an order update today with: “We apologize for the delay in shipping your order. Apple is having trouble shipping the i7 model of the MacBook Air. Your MacBook Air is now estimated to ship by 5/5.”
 
I ordered on 1st of April. i5/16/256. Still processing. It shouldn't have taken this long considering other orders.
 
Arrived 7 hours ago, been enjoying it, the speakers are a god send, and the screen is a huge step up from previous 768p screens i've had lol Loving the smaller size compared to my previous 15 inch laptop, Apple truly did something fantastic here.

Ah I see, will keep my fingers crossed it will be with you as swiftly as possible
 
Yay, FedEx just delivered mine!

Now I have another package from FedEx supposed to be delivered today in St. Louis, but is still in Chicago. Did I ever mention how much I despise this ****ing company? No wonder Amazon dropped them.

I have ordered on 6th of April, MBA i5/8gb/512gb
until now i have not received the MBA. What do you guys think the delivery time depends on? Geographical position? Reseller you buy it from? Or is it just random?

Its really if they are behind on the configuration/color you ordered and how long it stays in China to clear customs and get on a plane.
 
Yes! Delivered today. So far, I'm loving the keyboard. I also have a MBP with the butterfly for comparison.
For those who are receiving through FedEx: Their tracking was confusing and off a few times (this morning it said that it was in another state), but they came through and stuck to the stated delivery. The driver was great, didn't have to sign for it but he waited till I answered the door (he said he was glad I was there so he didn't have to come back, so sounds like he would not have left it at the door).

i5/16GB/512GB
ordered 4/7
card charged 4/17
preparing to ship 4/18
shipped 4/19
stated arrival is 4/23-4/30

Order a Space Gray i5 with 512GB SSD and 8GB ram today. Delivery Estimate of May 4-6. Finally replacing my mid 2010 13" MBP. Hope I can get another 9 years. Only thing that worries me was I was able to service my 2010 MBP myself, but it is time to update.

I'm going to order soon as well. I got 4 years out of my 2010 MBA 11”, 6 out of my 2014 MBP 13”. I’m hoping for 3-4 years out of this, but I could be talked into the rumored ARM MB if it’s as good as I hope.

I had a feeling it was something with the i7s. I ordered that same config from Apple on March 29 and the order never went anywhere so I canceled it last week.
 
I placed my order for a silver i5/16/256 yesterday. Delivery estimate is showing May 12-19.

I ordered yesterday the same exact spec in gold and my estimate is 14-20 May. Maybe it’s to do with the silver casing or maybe you ordered before yesterday!

Interesting. I ordered mine yesterday around 5PM EST. Must be the casing.
 
Congrats, you got the best color. Its beautiful in person.

New here!

I was debating the gold or space gray for this.. went with SG because I’ve never owned anything gold from Apple.

I got a SG i5/16/512
Ordered it 4/17
Delivery range is 5/4-5/14

I’m hoping it comes closer to the 5/4 range... truly was hoping earlier but reading thru the forum it doesn’t seem likely.

Thats the same config I got, I ordered on the 6th and got it yesterday. The gold looks more copper/rose gold depending on the lighting. I like the gold since its exclusive to the Air laptop.
 
Ordered an i5/8/1TB on Monday. No update on status yet. It does, however, say it will arrive between May 6 and 13, but I expected some sort of update. Says it’s processing.
