I ordered a MacBook Air earlier this week, and it's been delayed more than 24 hours in the Memphis FedEx hub, with an "exception" saying "Clearance delay." This means it hasn't gone through customs, and I wonder if the tariff situation is affecting this. Has anyone else seen the same problem? Or is this something that happens often, and I simply haven't experienced it before?

This is happening to me too. Has your order moved out of clearance delay status yet?
 
Called Apple to set up a "case" - and the next day Apple got it released. All's well.
 
Same here. Mine was supposed to be here on Wednesday (23rd). As of Mon/Tues I was getting the clearance alerts. I chatted with DHL and they cannot provide any further information. I reached out to Apple this morning and they asked me to waiting until it's 72 hours late then to reach back out to them. I have never had an issue with delays like this with Apple products. I do feel that there is some weirdness going on due to the tariffs. UGH
