Well, sadly I had to cancel the order for the MacBook Air, because I ended up owing SSI money from a failure of communication among getting my job. So now it probably won't be until summertime until I can get one. I may as well have to sell my old MacBook in order to save up for a new MacBook Air... or at least wait until I get my tax returns to see what to do.

Just received the scan from FedEx for “International shipment release - import” in Shanghai. Not sure what that means since I’ve previously only tracked UPS, but I’d like to think it means hopping on a flight soon.
@petitcanard you shouldn’t be too far behind!

Not sure I am always reacting to the same guys here 🙈, but I am in the same boat.
Ordered 2nd Jan, still processing and no charge.
Well, my MacBook Air hasn't exactly moved very far! It shipped yesterday and seems to have made it as far as Shanghai airport, arriving at 8pm last night (local time) and is still there now. Plus the estimated delivery of the 26/1 has now vanished off the UPS tracking and it says to check again later for the delivery date, so who knows what is happening or when the thing will arrive!
Mine’s pretty much followed the exact same path as yours from Chek Lap Kok onwards, with the timings being exactly the same or a couple of minutes off, just 7 days later. Expecting it to be in Stanford-Le-Hope at 3, and delivered on Monday as they claimed. There was a UPS flight from Cologne to East Midlands, which is close to me, so I’d hoped it would be on that flight and make it for delivery today. Instead it appears to have gone on a truck to drive it to Stanford-Le-Hope.
I called UPS asking if I could pay extra for a Saturday delivery, or pick it up, but they said that’s not possible. They’ve got scale, but they’re not exactly the most efficient or agile/responsive couriers.
Woo! And you’re on the money - received the notice this morning that it’s shipped (FedEx too), and tracking says it’s left the facility in Shanghai. I guess now it’s obsessively checking the tracking instead of obsessively checking the order status 🤪😂Update for

Shipped today, with an estimated delivery date to Colorado Feb 1. The factory must have had a productive week!
I received my MBP 2TB/16GB on Tuesday afternoon. Due to the power outages we had in Southern California, I really wasn't able to start getting things set up and migrated until yesterday. This laptop is amazing! I wasn't sure the speed and power of it would be noticeable due to me upgrading from a 2018 15" MBP with an i5, but man was I wrong.
Hang in there everyone, this is well worth the wait!

Order is still processing two days after being charged. Some of you here have their status changed to preparing to ship one or two days after their card was charged and I’m jealous lol
Their updates to the website do seem to be odd at times. Some haven't been notified of anything until the parcel company give them a date.
Mine is still showing 3 to 4 weeks to shipping. Ordered 4th Jan. Still processing.

It just shipped boys
Wow that was fast. Did they give you an estimate on when will it arrive? We have the same shipping estimate of Feb 2-9 and mine is still processing.
