Do the tracking items below indicate that it's actually 'in transit' on a plane from Shanghai or could it still be sitting on the ground waiting for the next flight? Anyone know?

My MBA is still processing. I called yesterday, and was reassured it would be shipped out yesterday. What a joke!!
Expected Delivery is June 18th-20th.
It is my experience that this means the shipment is currently in the air, heading somewhere. If you are in the USA, likely Memphis.
So my MacBook Air came in, I did the black magic speed test, 360Mb/s write, 460Mb/s read.. 128Gb Toshiba SSD.
I ordered my MBA and dvi adapter on Monday night. Wednesday the adapter shipped from China with an estimated arrival for the 15th. Today the laptop finally shipped with an estimated arrival of the 19th.
I just checked on the adapter and there was an attempt at delivery for it. Seeing that the adapter went from China to delivery in a day, I am still optimistic to receive my laptop tomorrow. I will be home tomorrow so I wont miss delivery this time.
btw I am in AZ.
FWIW - I just placed an expedited order for a 2012 11'' Ultimate (2.0/8/256) 10 minutes ago. Decided to sell my 2011 base MBA and just go balls to the wall with the 2012. The benchmark delta between the two models was too much to resist.
Anyhow...
Ships: 1 - 3 business days
Delivers: Jun 18 - Jun 20 via 2-3 Business Days
I'll update if my status updates.
(EDIT)
Country: US - Philadelphia
Configuration: 11'' Ultimate (2.0/8/256)
Date ordered: June 12th, 10:30PM EST
Current stage: Processing

Hey congrats!!! Did your MBA arrive earlier than expected? I ordered mine on Monday at around 3pm CST... Fedex tracking currently says delivery by the 18th (next monday) but I'm hoping it can get here tomorrow.... crossing fingers.. :/

As requested here are my unboxing pics of my beautiful new air! Good luck to everyone else still waiting. Its worth it!
I ordered an ultimate 13" (i7, 8gb ram, 512gb SSD) an hour ago and shipping from apple online store is 1-3 business days according to the confirmation email I got just 2 minutes after I ordered. To the point of red text error messages I got none, it took 2 seconds from me pushing order, until I had a page saying 'thank you'.
