...I missed the FedEx delivery... while I was at home. Boh. I had a window of time to do a video meeting and thought I heard a noise...

Oh well, the original delivery was for the 8th anyways.
OMG - I feel for you! I hope you get it soon.

Ordered Gold i7/16GB/1TB on 4/28 with ETA of 5/14 - 5/21 and California destination. As of today 5/2, still shows order processing. Any chance you think it will ship early?

As of today 5/7/2020, it still has not shipped. I noticed in the App Store app though, status says 'Order in Progress'? I've never seen that status before. On the website, order status still shows 'Processing'.
 
And it shipped! Oddly coming from Pennsylvania, not China, and scheduled for delivery tomorrow.

My SG i7/16/512 ordered April 22 arrived a few hours ago. Still trying to get everything set up. Needed a 45 min+ MacOS update out of the box, but at least it's here.
 
Hot off the press...

After giving Windows and the Surface Pro a chance I have given up and ordered a MBA I5 that will be attached to a 27" 2011 iMac. The Surface Pro is nice, but overheating, Blue Screen of death, BT not connecting, etc etc was too much. I ready to come back to Apple. Ordered yesterday Space Gray, can't wait!
What do you mean it will be 'attached' to the 2011 iMac. I had hoped to be able to use my MBA (arriving next week) with a late 2012 iMac but Apple no longer supports that. How will you do this?
 
Ordered 3rd of May. Base Model. Processing, no credit card charge.
Shipping to Sweden, just got off the phone with Apple and they told me that it's going to ship from Asia (most likely from Shanghai), via Amsterdam. Predicted arrival 28th of May.
 
One more update:
Ordered 24/04
Card charged with pending charge: 30/04
Preparing to ship: 04/05
Shipped: 05/05

Shipped with UPS with estimated deliver on 12/05 on both the Apple Website and UPS app.

This is for a i5/16/256 gold one to the UK.

Mine reached Hong Kong around 12am on the 7th but no movement since. Also reporting “exception” on the ups app but once you go in further still says “on time” with expected delivery on the 12th.
 
Got mine yesterday and did the initial setup last night. This is my first MacBook and I'm impressed. It's heavier than I thought it would be which is fine because the aluminum gives it a high end feel.

Can't wait to play with it some more this weekend.

Ordered on April 18, 2020 from Apple....received May 7, 2020 for those keeping track.

What do you mean no longer supports? I bought all the required attachments from Apple to use my 2011 as a monitor. I believe it should work. We will soon find out, if not then I have another external monitor I can use.

When I go to the apple page for 'target display mode' it says "This article has been archived and is no longer updated by Apple." I'm a novice and have never done this, but also hope to use my late 2012 with my yet to be delivered MBA. Will be interested to see how this works for you.
 
It took a couple days but they charged my Apple Card today. Once I have the new 2020 MBA and set it up, I will donate my 2010 model to a college student. Single mom, working part time and taking online courses to graduate this fall.

I ordered mine 2 days after you and it was dispatched on 5th as well, delivering to Manchester.
My tracking is DHL so I can only see from Amsterdam onwards. Apple expected delivery is 18/5, but hoping earlier!
Only 2 days to wait for you!

weirdly, it earlier said it left Dubai at 11:20am, it now says 17:30. that's odd? It may not have actually gone on the earlier flight to Cologne.
