I think this is the next flight out of Shanghai

Maybe...although, that doesn't say anything about stopping in ANC, and I kinda doubt the closest FedEx hub for those of us on the west coast is Memphis. Perhaps the MBP's that are going futher east are staying on the same flight and west coast ones are going on another flight.
MacBook pro cto was estimated delivery for 11th may, then changed to 10th may and now it's changed to 5th may!!! Would be great if I get it tomorrow as day off but if not then 5th is still fab!
So much for Monday. I'm adding back the 53% of all the bad stuff I have said about FedEx or FedUp as I call them. So Apple sends FedUp the info. It takes FedEx 13 hours to get it picked up, then taken somewhere, then three hours later picked up again which just missed FedUp's cutoff. NICE!
So now it's in transit to ANC and it'll get here around midnight so do you think FedUp will deliver it. NOPE. They don't deliver 2-3 day packages in ANC in 2 days if they can leave it in a tote until the 3rd day.
So I'll have it Wednesday which is the very last day of Apples 5-7 day build time and FedUp's 2-3 day delivery if you count Friday to Wednesday as 2-3 days.
Delivered 2 days early!
But sadly it won't be in my hands till the 15th. Goddamit!
I'm noticing that either very little or a lot of time passed between the Second Shanghai in transit, and Anchorage.
Any ideas on how to interpret this? Mine has been in Transit (the second update) for 4 hours.
I would love that. That would make me very happy. What is the status of yours right now?
Absolutely no idea. In fact, my delivery would have been done 2 days earlier had the weekend not come in between coz essentially on Saturday morning it was already at the sort facility in Denver.
Oh plus all those times are local times, so yeah possibly the time stamp between Shanghai and AK could be misleading. :S
The time frame from Shanghai to ANC is about 20 minutes with the time zone change if that helps.
In Transit
My MBP is now "In Transit" and I'm in NYC, any idea if the direct flight from Shanghai to Memphis would apply to me? (http://flightaware.com/live/flight/FDX90)
If so, how long has it taken people in the NY area to get their delivery once it arrives in Memphis?

I've watched this several times and as long as it gets into MEM during the middle of the night, it seems to have same day delivery. I can't get that in ANC but MEM does an awesome job.
Memphis is killing me right now. Says it has left the Memphis pub, but that was 36hrs ago with no update after..
That's not right. It should have had a scan upon arrival from MEM to where ever it went. I'd call FedEx and see what they say. Then post it so we know what's going on. Don't accept "I don't know" for an answer. It hasn't been in flight for 36 hours so ask to talk to someone who has an answer.
Mine arrived today
15.5" i7 8GB HR-AG
Ordered: April 18th
Shipped: April 28th
Delivered On: March 03 16:42 EST
So far so good. No scratches/dents, no dirt, no dead/stuck pixels. I'm a little underwhelmed by the TN panel (HR AG); I'm used to staring at IPS panel monitors all day (this is my first notebook).

So, can someone explain what two 'In Transit's in Shanghai mean, when they are under two hours apart? Is this movement in the port?
Is the general story that there are only a few flights a week, and we stack up waiting for them? My order was last Tuesday, and it already says delivery is sked for May 5 (says FedEx).
Someone needs to write a sticky on 'How your CTO travels from CN, step by step...'

That's exactly what I was thinking.. I called and right away the girl said she could only see what I see online. What should I do?
Called twice now.. they jus say they have no other updates.
