My MBA is now preparing for shipment

Placed order: 6/12/2012 (noon-ish, Central time)
Ordered: MBA 13/8/128
$100 Gift card (still processing)

Delivery shows 19th-21st.
 
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?

It is my experience that this means the shipment is currently in the air, heading… somewhere. If you are in the USA, likely Memphis.

I'm sure they'll make the delivery estimate. Who knows how they sort these orders out.
 
11" to Norway

Just had my payment cleared - for some insane reason I was stupid enough to pay by bank transfer...

Ships in: 1-3 business day.
Expected delivery: June 29th-July 3rd.

*sigh*
 
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.

My 13"/i5/128/8GB BTO Air just switched to "preparing for shipment" this morning. I ordered it on Tuesday afternoon, and my estimated delivery time is 18th-20th.

I paid for the expedited shipping but, unless it ships in the next few hours, I have the feeling it's going to be a loooooong weekend!
 
Ordered my 13" 1.8GHz with 8GB RAM upgrade Monday around 10PM PST. I elected for in store pickup. The estimated date I got when I placed the order was the 21st. My order is still processing, but still showing the 21st as the date.

sign that release form!
 
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
Shipping type: Expedited

Ugh, well, my Gift Card shipped... still processing the machine.
 
Its here!!!! I'll post pics soon.

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.. :/

Great shots :)

Same here!!! It should have just landed about an hour ago....Final destination MIA....By looking at the flight it should get in Fort Lauderdale around 6:30 AM. The hub is about 30 min from Airport.....Will I get it Friday?? What do you guys think?
 
All of my whining seems to have paid off.....

My Air is officially preparing for shipment, 66+ hours after ordering. I am still a bit saddened that I have to wait till next week to receive it, but I am relieved to finally see some change in the status.
 
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'.

Now, 50+ hours later it still says processing order. Apple still has a day to ship before 1-3 business days are over but I'm fed up. I want the status to change!
