Is UPS shipping directly from Shanghai? Any experiences?
Mine will be shipped with UPS as I'm going to pick it up at a UPS Access Point

MacBook Pro Late 2016 EU shipping

FINALLY! My Macbook 13" BTO has been shipped and has an estimated delivery date of 5.12.16 (old delivery window 12.-15.12.) so that is great. But I have seen that it will be shipped with TNT (Swiss Courier) and not DHL. Does anyone know anything about TNT? Like how to track planes? Will they be flown in with a passenger jet (don't think that TNT has long range jets) etc.?
EDIT: Nevermind, TNT has 4 B777 freighters so this should be more than enough from China to Europe. But my question still stands: has anyone any experience with TNT?

Mine got delivered today!
Thank you all for waiting with me, and for entertaining me the whole time during the long wait!
As far as I can tell, the wait pays off 100%.
It is a georgeus machine, I am definitely having fun with it!
Thank you again, and may we meet again!

Yes, I am currently waiting for an EU UPS delivery that started updating in Shanghai two days ago (via UPS tracking number). Expected delivery three days from now.

Any sign of yours yet? I've been sitting in the window all day looking for a van! Starting to think that I'm not going to get it today 🙁

Hey that's great! Would you mind sharing how much time has passed from "preparing for shipment" to "shipped" on the Apple store? I have the same window, so I can compare times 🙂
When did you guys got the 'Shipment details received' status on DHL website?

So for what I've been seeing an order can take like 2 weeks to change from Processing Items to Preparing For Shipment (P4S), right?

It will go to P4S around 1 week before your delivery window. There isn't a set amount of time between processing and PFS.
Mine took 24 days. I ordered Nov 1st and Apple estimated 4-5 weeks shipping time. From P4S it usually it takes 1-3 days until it says Shipped. Then about a week and it will be delivered. Mine is estimated to arrive Dec 7th.
Guys my MacBook was shipped on Saturday, however apple are giving me an estimated date of tomorrow. How likely is it that I'll get my MacBook tomorrow? On the dhl tracking it only says

You're in the same boat as me and @Michelinu , on my DHL:s Website it says Estimated Delivery 29th Nov which is tomorrow! So you're good to go for tomorrow I suppose!
DHL Express is really quick. I'd say that its about 90% likely that it's out for delivery tomorrow if that is their estimation. If there happened to be really bad weather etc. it might be delayed by a day.
