Volcano delays Macbook pro shipments?

[Fisketryne]

Ordered the 15" stock Macbook pro yesterday. Anyone know where they are stored? Mine will be shipped to Norway. If they are flown, there will be delays to Scandinavia and Britain at least. Probably other countries as well because of the Icelandic eruption:

Here in Norway there will be no flights until tomorrow. And all airports could be closed for 2-3 days more. Perhaps even longer if the wind does not shift and the volcano continues to spew.

Yeah I already mention this in another thread. I guess they will be some delays in Northern Europe / UK

I called Eplehuset in Copenhagen today and ordered one - and the very kind woman I talked to said they already received a stack of macbook pros today -I guess there might also be some in Norway already ....

Hopefully they'll come through the channel tunnel into the UK fingers crossed!

Hmm. Hopefully some have made it here already.

Correct. A lot of MBP go through the Netherlands. I think they put manuals or other things to the boxes before the final delivery.

In 2008, mine went from China to Germany, then NL, then back to Germany.

TNT tracking shows the package in transit in Eindhoven, Netherlands. It´s registered there 5 and a half hours ago. Guessing it´s waiting for the next plane to Norway
