Mine does not stat if it has cleared customs, but it does state that it departed from Anchorage, AK and will be delivered by Monday, November 16. Pretty odd. 
Got a tip for us?

Still in doubt about Monday delivery. Hoping but planning for mid week delivery 😏
@Ohkujiba Yeah, my UPS tracking also hasn’t stated that the package has cleared customs either.
However, UPS is guaranteeing a November 17th delivery early afternoon.

Just realized that my laptop isn’t on this flight because the plane has already landed in Louisville and there hasn’t been an arrival scan yet. Hmmm...

If I am not mistaking, iPhone orders went through customs at SDF airport in Louisville KY however as you can see above, my MacBook order had the customs clearance in Alaska this time.
So the question is, do they still take it to SDF or do they distribute directly to airports near final customer from Alaska this time?
I’m sure it’s just Apple placing a hold until the 17th. My MacBook Air just left Anchorage and is on its way to Louisville. If it were just an ordinary shipment it would arrive tomorrow (between 9:30-1:30 according to My Choice) but I’m guessing it will arrive Tuesday.Maybe, but the reason for the "date tentative" warning could also be some other reason we are not aware of. Still, the Apple Store website states a delivery date of November 18th but I do hope UPS delivers on the 16th.
I’ve had Apple shipments clear customs in Anchorage before. Most shipments to the US and Canada go through Louisville from Anchorage.
Not sure but I am betting on it being improved from your original quoted 24-27 ship date. That was the same time I was quoted and my shipping date improved big time.
Same here, just a matter of UPS not screwing up at the moment.
UPS Tracking is broken for me... 7 hours ago it was showing Export Scan in Shanghai but now it only shows "Your package is in transit. We're updating plans to schedule your delivery. / The package will be forwarded to a UPS facility in the destination city."
Mine has cleared customs and has departed Anchorage. Delivery is scheduled for tomorrow by end of day. Air, 16GB, 1TB SSD. Ordered immediately after the event.
Same with me! I am so confused! I went from receiving the MBA on the 18th to unknown to the 16th back to unknown! I think they are just playing with me now!
Same here. It’s pretty normal for package going through custom on weekends.
The thing is, mine is already in Anchorage, AK and departed the facility at 8:47 PM yesterday. But, I still have no ETA.
Mine as well showed leaving Alaska BEFORE it showed up as cleared by customs. Odd I know but that’s how it was with mine and another member here.
My order is still processing. does apple ship on weekends? I'm asking because i want to know if its worth my while to check it today to see if it goes to preparing to ship?
