Bah! I just called and it won't come until tomorrow. It will hit Plattsburgh (1 hour away from me) today but they won't hold it so I can pick it up tonight.

I did that with my iPhone 4.

It's going to be a long day.

More Dutchies! On The Dutch apple store it said ships 1-2 days when I ordered it but apparently they're having stock issues or so I've been told???

Did you order a regular, or BTO?
 
8:32a: On FedEx vehicle for delivery

Looks like the 3/1 in the apple e-mail was correct over FedEx (3/2).

Just as I pressed 'Submit Reply'. Ding dong...dog barking...and it has arrived!

Too bad I have to leave for meetings that will last most of the day and then we have friends over this evening. Looks like a late night for me!

Congrats! 5 days: not bad... right? :)
 
Yes I was wondering what the next stop would be. Seems quite a bizarre route already: Shanghai, Korea, then the "Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan" (sic Borat)? I guess it must be one of these: http://en.alaport.com/info/departures.html - although these are probably only passenger flights so maybe not...
Looking at previous deliveries the next hop is either Warsaw or Cologne and then typically on to Stansted .

Correct - UPS flight 5X9 is scheduled to arrive in Warsaw next, then onwards to Cologne (Koln/Bonn Airport) which is the UPS Worldport hub in Germany.
 
One step ahead of you.



Yes, actually a hair under 5 days from order to receipt from Shanghai. I am very happy with that.

Thanks man. I added an new "Users in Order of Date Received" column. I added you at the top.

You're the first of all those whom have reported to get your BTO Macbook Pro!

I am honored, though I feel like others will be hitting soon.

Thanks for putting together the spreadsheet. It was fun tracking flights and my MacBook.

Where did you find that tracking info? The only details I can see for 5X9 where on the 27/3.
 
Woo! just checked my tracking

On FedEx vehicle for delivery
FORT WORTH, TX

It said last night it would deliver on the 3rd
 
1st delivery attempted this morning. Wasn't expecting it at all and missed it. Called fedex and will meet up with truck driver around 2pm EST. Sighs. Seems like Apple's estimate was right.
 
Received my shipping confirmation this morning. Will be arriving next Tuesday (8th) via FedEx.!
